Any Chicago residents over 75 having a hard time getting their Covid shots?

4. Yes, Northwestern Memorial hospital

will be giving vaccines to its patients. I received an email Monday that I would be automatically contacted to schedule a vaccination appointment at some point. Affiliated doctors’ offices won’t be giving them: NWM will be setting up a separate clinic .

I’m not expecting that to happen very soon, however. I’m planning to also register with Walgreens, in case that can happen sooner. Whichever comes first, I’ll take it. But not holding my breath! With more than 650,000 individuals in this category, and right now only 34,000 doses available each week, I’ll be surprised if it isn’t until mid March or even April.
