Our Say: Progress made on vaccine rollout, but still more work to do

Suddenly, progress seems real. The good news is mounting up. Just over 30% of the Anne Arundel County population has received their first COVID-19 dose, and 18.7% are fully vaccinated. Everyone in Maryland who is 16 or older will be eligible next week to get the coronavirus vaccine at any site offering shots in the state. Anne Arundel County will stop requiring preregistration for vaccination appointments, allowing the public to sign up directly for clinic openings on the schedule that will be released on Tuesdays and Thursdays.
