Freddie Woods opened his apartment door in New Orleans East when he heard the sounds of brass music. Moments later, a canvasser for Together Louisiana a community engagement nonprofit placed a flyer in his hand and told him that the organization was hosting a vaccination event at a church within walking distance from Woods’ home the next day. The All For One Brass Band that drew Woods out of his apartment would be playing at the vaccination event, and the first 100 people to receive shots could enjoy a fish fry.
“This is my first time hearing about it,” Woods said. “But I got to go get it done.”

NEW ORLEANS Shakeitha Young was home on a rainy Saturday morning, cleaning up bits of toast strewn by her 1-year-old, Jalayah, when the knock came.
A nurse in teal scrubs, rain boots and a white poncho was on her porch, offering Young an on-the-spot COVID-19 vaccine. Young eagerly agreed, swinging open the door with Jalayah propped on her hip in a unicorn shirt and diaper. Despite her job as a hospital technician, sanitizing medical equipment like IV pumps, the 32-year-old single mom of three said she hadn’t yet been offered a shot.
In her quaint, sparsely furnished townhouse tucked in a public housing complex in the city s Upper 9th Ward, nurse practitioner Sophia Thomas injected Young with her first dose of Moderna vaccine.
