SEATTLE (AP) Washington state has extended COVID-19 vaccination eligibility on Wednesday to people in the next phase, including grocery store workers, transit workers and first responders, health officials said.
The Washington State Department of Health estimates 740,000 more residents will now be eligible, raising concerns among people who were already eligible residents but have not yet been inoculated, KOMO-TV reported Tuesday.
“We are worried about the thickness of traffic of some sites where the sties go into – a slow motion situation,” said Bonnie McGuire, a retired school principal turned volunteer.
She said the trick is to get online early to reserve a vaccination, even overnight, and to remember to keep refreshing the reservation page while waiting and navigating through it.
