For one Fort Washington, Maryland couple, trying to get their COVID-19 vaccine appointment has been an exercise in frustration, heartbreak and patience.
Vicki Burnham told WTOP she’s over 65 and her husband, Elliot, is over 75. He was diagnosed with cancer in January and is facing chemotherapy in a few weeks.
“He needs that shot,” she said.
Burnham said she’s staying on top of vaccine information, and most importantly, how to get an appointment.
