However, it seems as thought the event is not working on a level playing field. If it is true that the only communications were supposed to go through the Daily Sun, it is not right that residents who are in The VIllages Health Care System were notified by e-mail on Sunday night. Those of us who are not in the Villages Health Care System did not have the information until Monday morning when the Daily Sun was delivered. That meant priority of appointments went to Villages Health System patients.
Also some have reported that individuals they know, who registered after they did, have received appointments while the first individuals are still waiting for their appointment notification. If true, that is not right either.
Don't blast me for my concerns. I am so thankful that somewhere around 90,000 doses are being made available for those of us in Sumter County. I will be so much more thankful when my wife and I are assigned appointments. We are patient but believe a level playing field is only fair.

I agree it's not a level playing field. I'm not in Villages Health either and saw this thread Sunday night. As far as getting info from Daily Sun goes - they gave the wrong website address in the paper Monday morning. Today's paper has the correct website but it doesn't state that it was incorrect previously. I did not feel comfortable giving SS or Insurance number no one asked for this information when I was tested for COVID and shouldn't now. Hope you get your appointment soon.
