Milford Seeks Residents' Opinions About Coronavirus Vaccine

MILFORD, MA — If you have an opinion about the coronavirus vaccines, it's time to let it out.

The Milford Board of Health is encouraging town residents to take part in an anonymous state survey gauging opinions about the new vaccine. There are three versions that have been approved so far: the two-shot Moderna and Pfizer vaccines, and the one-shot Johnson & Johnson version, which was just granted emergency authorization this week.

The survey largely focuses on attitudes about the COVID-19 vaccine and vaccinations in general. The survey also asks for details about coronavirus risk and exposure.

The survey is open to anyone over age 18 through March 12, and takes about 10 minutes to fill out.

Massachusetts is in the midst of distributing the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines at locations across the state, although appointments have been scarce. Anyone over age 65 and people with two or more health conditions can get the vaccine. The next eligible group will be educators, who will be able to start booking appointments on March 11.
