Representatives of governmental bodies in Brazos County received an vaccination update Monday from the coordinator of what’s happening at the Brazos Center.
Jim Stewart told those attending the intergovernmental committee (IGC) meeting that one obstacle is the estimated 30 percent of people who have no interest in being vaccinated.
Stewart also said he is pretty comfortable being able to meet President Biden’s declaration that vaccines will be available to everyone by May 1.
As for last Friday’s crash of the brazoshub.com appointment website, Stewart says that happened after the website received 58,000 requests in the first 17 minutes appointments were available. Stewart asked people to wait two or three hours. And last weekend, Stewart says appointments were still being accepted through Saturday night.
