To: <everyone at stat.cmu.edu>


Folks,
yesterday we had the pleasure of visiting tiny Wellsville, OH. It is just
an hour drive from Pittsburgh, past the airport. The folks there can
vaccinate up to 200 people/day, but they have few people showing up to bare
their shoulders. We were in and out in about 5 min, vaccinated with Pfizer
and armed with an appointment for the second dose in April. There were two
people in line ahead of us, none when we left.

*OH and Rite Aid have no residency restrictions for COVID-19 vaccines* (as
you can read here
<https://pittsburgh.cbslocal.com/2021/03/19/ohio-pa-covid19-vaccines/>).
The location has an abundance of vaccines available and not enough people
to vaccinate. The super efficient pharmacy staff assured us again and again
how happy they are to see people from PA arrive for vaccination.

It is easy to register to be vaccinated at an OH RiteAid (in Wellsville,
the closets OH Rite Aid to Pittsburgh, or otherwise). Though the website
still says 40+ years, the pharmacist assured us that they are now taking
anyone over 18 years (and expect to open to 16+ in the next week or so). No
pre-existing conditions necessary. You need to arrive only with a form of
ID and your medical insurance card.

To register for an appointment, go to riteaid.com/covid-19/
Click on Ohio
Prompted for city, enter an Ohio town such as Wellsville, OH
Select the pharmacy (220 Third Street, Wellsville, OH)
Select date/time for your appointment
Enter your local PA address and info

Best,
Ale
