for the COVID-19 Vaccine.
Although the COVID-19 vaccine rollout in the
United States is a bit chaotic, millions of Americans
have successfully received their doses. .
With President Joe Biden now in office,
distribution is expected to improve. .
If you’re one of the majority sitting tight and
waiting for your turn for the vaccine, here are
five things you can do to prepare yourself.
1. Make sure you understand the current prioritization
plan in your area and see where your eligibility sits. .
It’s important to stay up-to-date on those
plans by checking them regularly, as changes
could be made at any time. .
2. Research the distribution sites being offered in your
area and contact them to find out what their plan is. .
Some places may require an appointment
and others may have a waitlist in place
that you can already sign up for. .
3. If you have a primary care physician, check in
with them and talk about vaccine risk factors. .
Those with severe allergies and pre-existing
conditions may want some additional
information and reassurance. .

have a detailed plan in place for when
you travel to get your vaccine. .

afterward, as the vaccine could
cause you to need a rest day or two. .
5. Be honest about
your qualifications
and wait patiently
for your term. .
Lying about your prioritization or booking
multiple appointments will only slow everything
down and cause issues for everyone.
