As a result, the Will County Health Department and the DuPage County Health Department said they will focus on people getting their second vaccine doses.
“I think it’s particularly unfortunate because we have a very large group of individuals in front of us, even in the original Phase 1B population, who are ready, willing and very able to, to be vaccinated,” said Karen Ayala, executive director of the DuPage County Health Department.
Beth Rrodriguez of Glen Ellyn said she and her sister have been trying help their mother, Kathy Rodriguez, schedule her first vaccine dose.
“We’ve been very unsuccessful checking websites from all the different pharmacies,” said Beth Rodriguez. “My mom is registered at three different hospitals to get notifications when it’s available and so far we’ve had no success.”
