We put is all ones for the SS spaces and clicked no on the insurance question.

We did get a screen stating our information was accepted and approved with the date and time of confirmation.
The same page stated we would be called when the next available appointments were applied.

We also received a confirming email with the same information.

Has anybody used this site and actually got an appointment?

With such low numbers of dose availability I suspect the wait will be longer than we think!!

So now we wait.....

Why is it that people that responded after me have already gotten appointments and I have not?

Yes, registered and approved Sunday night, authorized to schedule Monday morning, made appointment for shot on Tuesday morning.
Well organized and professional.

DaleDivine: The same thing happened to me. I got an appointment but hubs said “invalid code.” I registered Sunday evening and got an appointment today. I explained the situation to the very kind paramedic and hubs received his vaccination. It’s worth a try. That invalid code is never going to work, believe me.

I used the saferestart website and was approved. I then got a phone call giving me a 6 digit code to make an appointment but I could not understand the URL of the website to submit the the code for getting an appointment. It's not the same website as the saferestart. Can anyone tell me the URL of the website to make the appointment? Thanks.

I had my first shot yesterday at the location behind Fresh Market on 466. When I registered, I did NOT give my SS# (entered all zeros) or any insurance information (said NO insurance).

The SafeRestart website is the site you need to use. Click on Step 2 and enter the code. My code was a combination of six numbers and letters and I was given this code via a text message.

Safe Restart

I applied earlier this week and have appt for later today, Thursday. I suggest anyone who hasn’t sign up do so but use the “send email” rather then phone call or txt. I got confirmation email immediately with code and link to sign up for date and time. Also use all zeros or 1’s for ssn and no insurance.

Yes! We signed up several days ago and received dates for 1st & 2nd vaccination for next week. However we did put SS# and also that we had health insurance.

just don't follow-up when you receive a notice to choose a date....they're not going to chase you like the extended auto warrantee folks do

word seemed to have spread pretty quickly on this online registration vehicle...I'm sure that they're overwhelmed at this point

the front end data collection part of the process may have been automated, but I'll guarantee you that there's a lot of manual intervention going on before any of us get a response back

building a totally automated system like this doesn't happen overnight...especially when there is extreme pressure to get something out there quickly

rode that horse to the finish line a number of times

just saying

Strange that people are getting appointments in some manner other than first come first served.

Wondering how this is actually working.

People who applied yesterday getting appts others that applied this past Monday still waiting.

Rosie53 01-14-2021 09:45 AM

Went yesterday and it was very well run. Each person we dealt with was kind and upbeat. It can’t be easy for them dealing with so many elders

scaccace01 01-14-2021 04:19 PM

Which Vaccine are they giving and what location did you get it?

I agree. I can't think of any justifiable reason why they are not making appointments on a first come first served basis. The Governor established a priority system for the state, and I could understand them rejecting people who don't qualify under the Governor's process. But, the county should not be using any other priority system. It is very suspicious.
