I got my first shot in rural Georgia (the US state) and the second here in Bend, Oregon.
When I left Bend in early February my age-group wasn't yet eligible for vaccination. So, I figured I'd either rely on Southern hospitality to vaccinate this poor "homeless" West Coast Yankee...or wait until I got home again -- probably not until May.
In late March, while camped in Georgia, I heard about a website called "vaccinefinder.org" that helps folks locate COVID vaccines being administered by private pharmacies (e.g., CVS, Walmart, Rite-Aid, etc.). I knew that --
officially -- Georgia (like most states) was offering vaccination only to folks living or working there. But I filled out the appointment form with my real address -- in Oregon -- and I got an appointment at the Swainsboro Walmart without alarms going off. That particular pharmacy had
many open appointment slots -- either locals didn't want vaccines or they already had them.
When I was in the vaccination room with the pharmacist administering the jab I told him that I'm a tourist from Oregon. He seemed to ignore that, but said that there were folks driving 3 hours from Atlanta to his pharmacy to take advantage of their excess supply. (3 hours? I drove 3000 miles.
)
Back in Bend from my 3-month wander I attempted to get an appointment for jab #2 via the County Health Dept, which links to the local Big Hospital. On the hospital's site, after I indicated that I wanted my second shot, they (the appointment software) said that for jab #2 I should go to where I got #1. But I wasn't going to drive back to Georgia... Rite-Aid website was similar. To sign up there I'd have to lie and claim that it was going to be my 1st jab. So I tried Walmart Pharmacy's site again and they didn't make any distinction between appointments [in Bend] for 1st and 2nd jabs. When I showed up at Walmart for my vaccination today I showed them my vaccine card, and there was no issue at all.
All good!
