In my area of New York State, the Moderna vaccine is the one that is being used. About two weeks ago, adults 75 and older were added to the eligible list and I made an appointment for myself (my wife, at 74, was just under the the list). My appointment was cancelled the day before the scheduled dosage due to lack of doses. I, and others who had signed up, were put on a priority list for appointments when more vaccine became available. Yesterday, that happened and I now have an appointment for this week. I hope that this one succeeds!
In the meantime, New Yorkers over 65 are now eligible. My wife would be unable to use my appointment because it is restricted to those who had had their previous appointments cancelled. She will go for immunization as soon as it becomes possible. One big question is the availability of the second shot.
I'm originally from New York, but been in Washington since 1975. My wife is originally from Korea. I got notified, via EMail, that I was eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine. It came from the organization entitled CHI Franciscan Health (my wife and I have both visited physicians, specialists, and hospitals/clinics that are part of that network). I immediately went to their site and set up the appointments for both my wife and I, and got immediate confirmation for both. Again do not know which vaccine it is. Also, for the area I am in, there is not just one vaccine that is being dispensed. As I mentioned above, our PCP has ordered the Moderna vaccine. But when I visited my cardiologist last Wednesday, he said he had got the Pfizer vaccine.
