Vaccination efforts across rural Maine to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic are going as well as could be expected, according to emergency management officials in eight northern counties, but plans for future phases remain fuzzy. And at least one official is frustrated because emergency management agencies, he feels, have been sidelined in the vaccination rollout.
Nearly all eight directors of county emergency management agencies (EMA) told The Maine Monitor their primary concern was the limited and uncertain supply of vaccine doses coming into the state. And many said it could be a logistical challenge to coordinate group vaccination events, which could be key in immunizing the general public.
