A summary of frustrations I’ve heard from my colleagues who are eligible and eager to get the COVID-19 vaccine in AB.
Spoiler Alert: the new abundance of appointments this weekend is not because of lack of interest or desire on the part of HCWs to get the vaccine. /1

1. Those that booked appointments earlier this week were given appointments next week or later. The weekend availability is new.
2. Those eligible for Phase 1A (which is now) have yet to receive their emails/calls about booking their vaccine. /2

3. Those who are eligible for the vaccine who called the booking phone number earlier this week to book are denied appointments and asked to wait for their email (which they’re still waiting for). /3
4. Those that followed instructions and tried to reschedule their appointments online ran into booking glitches where they lost their original appointment time and were unable to rebook for this weekend. /4
5. Colleagues in clinics (ex. Family Doctors and Pediatricians) still have no idea when to expect the vaccine.
I know @AHS_media is working to get the bugs out of this system and believe they can easily fill these HCW slots by opening bookings by the honour system if needed. /5
