Vaccine Clinics For Residents 75+ In Chelmsford Fill Within Hour

CHELMSFORD, MA —In less than an hour after announcing them, the two Chelmsford Board of Health COVID-19 vaccination clinics for residents age 75 and older were filled and closed, according to the town.

Patch has reached out to the Board of Health for the number of slots that were originally available. They did not immediately return request for comment.

Even when the clinics were announced, the town noted there was "very limited availability," but did not specify how many spaces or doses were available.

Within minutes of announcing the clinic the town sent an update indicating the first clinic was full.
