Indoor vs outdoor vaccinations

SailinAway · 03-17-2021, 01:03 PM

To correct some misconceptions posted elsewhere, based on personal experience and a phone call to the National Guard:

(1) Concord Sears will NOT do an outdoor vaccination unless you're physically unable to walk into the building.

(2) ClearChoice at the Belknap Mall does NOT do outdoor vaccinations.

(3) The National Guard does do outdoor vaccinations in Plymouth, Exeter, Londonderry, and Dover. However that policy may change as it has changed at other sites, such as Concord.

It's very difficult to get any information about questions like this. 2-1-1 is misinformed about indoor vs outdoor sites.

We did first shot at Plymouth OUTDOORS when temp was 1 degree. Nat'l Guard was fabulous. Did second shot at Concord Sears INSIDE.Again fabulous with Nat'l Guard again. No issues at all. Terrific amount of emergency personnel from Concord Fire and other surrounding communities. Very smooth and extremely well organized. No fear at all being inside. Personally, I would never worry about the safety of getting the shot inside in such a wide open environment.

Nashua is outdoors. Total time was about 90 minutes with about 60 minutes in line to get to the sign-in point and the rest of the time parked waiting to get our shots.
