Hello everyone, we have an update coming at 2pm from Dr, Cohen, But we have now seen on the state website an update to the categories we are vaccinating and it now says 65 and over along with health care providers. So Gary we may need to send an email to manufacturing that they are on hold till further notice that the state has changed the categories for current vaccinations,  Not sure what we want to do about other announcements because we only have about 350 doses left to schedule and we have 150 contacts already in the next 65 year old category to call , so if we announce it we will be flooded again ??? But of course channel 3 and 9 are already running with the new categories.  And I do not know when more vaccine is coming, we have received our shipment for second dose of Moderna and are expecting 2nd dose Pfizer today or tomorrow. I will keep you updated as we hear more information
