VaccineFinder is a collaborative attempt by the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Boston Children's Hospital, and Castlight Health to create a website where people everywhere in the United States can see every location in their community offering COVID-19 vaccinations, how many shots each location has for the current day, and links to set up vaccination appointments.
As I am posting this, VaccineFinder only has full lists of vaccine providers in Alaska, Indiana, Iowa, and Tennessee. Its lists for those states include providers at hospitals, clinics, public health centers, doctor's offices, drug stores, and grocery store pharmacies. Obviously there is a lot of work to be done. Up to now, local vaccination websites have been swamped: for example, Massachusetts's Vaxfinder site crashed last Thursday when a million residents tried to create accounts.
If you live in Alaska, Indiana, Iowa, or Tennessee and want to be vaccinated, let us know how VaccineFinder works for you:
https://vaccinefinder.org/
I will be checking back to see if they manage to cover my state.
If you don't want vaccination, I wish you mazel tov. If you want to debate vaccination, please create your own thread. This thread is to see how well VaccineFinder works in four states, and to see if it manages to cover other states equally well. If people insist on turning it into a vaccination debate, I will ask the moderators to lock it.
