PEARLAND, Texas – Medical staff started vaccinations in Pearland and Brazoria County on Thursday.
Pearland officials said the demand was so high in the area, the 2,000 appointments filled up in 10 minutes.
“I just happened to be on the computer when the notification came from the city, so I was lucky enough to get an appointment,” said Frank Wadlington.
Wadlington secured one of the doses of the COVID-19 vaccine in Pearland.
“I’m over 65 and I have some of those other health issues that they mentioned. It might be deadly if I didn’t get a vaccine,” said Wadlington.
