HYANNIS – Diane and Lucien Poyant of Hyannisport didn’t know there was a COVID-19 vaccination clinic on the grounds of the Cape Cod Melody Tent in Hyannis until they drove past it Monday.
After calling a number at Cape Cod Healthcare, which is hosting the clinic, they got an appointment for Tuesday morning and joined a long line of cars snaking down Scudder Avenue past the West End Rotary.
The Poyants, both 83, said they were thrilled and relieved to stumble upon the opportunity to get their first shots.
“We’ve been trying everything CVS and all that stuff,” Lucien said. “We can’t thank (Cape Cod Healthcare) enough.”
