Health Department Offers Phone Scheduling Help for Islanders, But Vaccine Supply Remains Limited

As of March 7, the Long Beach Island Health Department had administered 1,985 doses of the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, and continues to schedule appointments as supply permits.

“To give you a sense of the supply limitations, the state has more than 1,700 providers approved to distribute vaccine, but only has enough supply to provide vaccine to nearly 300 sites,” said LBIHD Health Officer Daniel Krupinski.
