Winter weather across the country and icy conditions expected in the Charlotte area are impacting thousands of people waiting to get their coronavirus vaccinations.
According to the CDC, the weather is causing delays at two of the major hubs where the vaccines are shipped from, located in Memphis, Tennessee and Louisville, Kentucky.
In the Carolinas, it’s causing several vaccine providers to reschedule appointments.
The Mecklenburg County Health Department is canceling all first and second-dose vaccine appointments for Thursday, Feb. 18 because of the forecast. People impacted will be notified and are guaranteed a new appointment.
More events and appointments could be impacted because the health department does not know when the next shipment of vaccines will be delivered.
