BALTIMORE, MD (WEAA)— Maryland health officials say, while the coronavirus vaccination rate continues to increase, supply from the federal government remains extremely limited.
Therefore, vaccinations are by appointment only.
Eligible residents can receive a vaccine at local hospitals, health departments, or neighborhood pharmacies.
To find a provider near you, visit covidvax.maryland.gov.
In an effort to reach more residents, health officials have begun opening a series of mass vaccination sites.

To keep residents informed on the distribution process, the Maryland Department of Health launched a COVID-19 Vaccination Dashboard.
Data on the dashboard shows the amount of doses administered as well as vaccinations by age, gender, race and ethnicity.
It's normal to have questions about the COVID-19 vaccine, says Infectious Disease Specialist Dr. Kathleen Page. "Based on information from large clinical trials, we know that the vaccine is safe and it's effective." #GoVAXMaryland
