Massachusetts began administering COVID-19 vaccines on Dec. 15, 2020. One hundred four days later, on March 29, Gov. Charles Baker announced the launch of a new “Homebound Vaccine Program.” By that point in time, the commonwealth had already administered 3,409,635 doses of vaccine to the public. The Homebound Program was clearly not as high a priority as reaching patients in nursing facilities, where COVID fatalities were a daily headline. As a result, homebound elderly and disabled people waited three and a half months to get their turn at a shot. Some of these people had as many as three or four home health aides, visiting nurses, or physical therapists, coming into their homes daily any of these workers were potential COVID spreaders. In-home COVID testing was also not widely available.
