There are not enough COVID-19 doses across the Tri-State area to vaccinate those who are currently eligible. The shortage, combined with a lack of streamlined information regarding where and how to obtain a vaccine appointment, has left residents scrambling.
The level of anxiety surrounding the lack of vaccines hearkens back to spring 2020’s grocery shortages, when residents were rolling up to stores at opening in hopes to find fresh meat, Lysol wipes, or a few rolls of toilet paper.
Frustration mounts over limited vaccine availability, difficult registration process
Eligible Orange County residents are scrambling to make an appointment for the COVID-19 vaccine amidst incredibly low supply and a difficult registration process. | 14 Jan 2021 | 05:17
When eligibility for the COVID-19 availability expanded to include Phase 1B, demand abruptly outweighed supply in Orange County and New York State as a whole.
According to the New York State website, seven million New Yorkers are now eligible, but the state only receives 300,000 doses each week from the federal government.
A lack of consistency
Orange County puts in vaccine requests to the state weekly - but does not know how many doses the county will receive week to week.
| 11 Dec 2020 | 11:36 Orange County Executive, Steve Neuhaus launched an initiative to give thanks to the people who continue to work on the frontlines during the COVID-19 pandemic and bring some holiday joy to the county’s nursing home residents and those who are in the hospital over the holidays. As part of “Orange Cares,” Neuhaus asked residents to write letters of appreciation to the county’s doctors, nurses, first responders, medical administrative staff and those in nursing homes or hospitals during this holiday season. Preschool Solutions students and staff participated in this initiative. The students decorated cards for residents and staff of nursing homes, first responders and healthcare workers. Laura Stubecki, owner and director of Preschool Solutions, loved the idea of the Orange Cares program and thought it was a wonderful way to remind people how important they are to our community.
