RIDOH is reminding Rhode Islanders that vaccination sites plan the amount of vaccine to have on hand using registration information, “People who arrive at vaccination clinics without appointments may not receive a vaccine if there is not enough supply at the clinic. Registering in advance is the best way to guarantee that a dose will be on site for your child”.
