https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/11/us/vaccine-spotter-help-finding-appointment/index.html"In mid-February, Muerdter began creating a tool in his free time that scanned local pharmacies' vaccine appointment availability and gathered all that information in one place -- allowing users to view nearby available appointments just by plugging in their zip code and how far they were willing to drive."
"Coworkers that had been searching for weeks found appointments for eligible family members in just days, he said, with the help of the new website."
"This just really sort of tried to automate what you would have to do if you were to go the websites and enter every single zip code or ... check every single store in your area," he said."

10 miles of my house. I just got so excited about finally finding something for my son.

(7,439 posts)5. I would add this to the list of websites you check, but I wouldn't rely on it too heavily
These types of content aggregator websites tend to be really error prone.
