“In the role of coordinator, that would be nice to know,” he said.
Meanwhile, the health system’s vaccines appear to be in short supply.
“All our appointments are currently booked,” reads an update posted Tuesday on Beloit Health System’s Facebook page, “but stay tuned for more dates. We appreciate your patience.”
On Wednesday the city of Beloit posted: “We will also share updates with you when Beloit Health System has more vaccines available for the 65+ crowd!”
Both Facebook pages contain comments from people frustrated by process.
“My husband has been trying to book an appointment with no luck,” reads a remark posted Wednesday on the city’s page.
“I called Monday and no appointments left,” reads a comment posted on Beloit Health Systems’ Facebook page on Tuesday, the same day the Fairbanks Morse employees received shots.
The Fairbanks Morse vaccinations follow vaccinations of Rock County teachers in at least two districts that weren’t authorized by the state.
Janesville School District spokesman Patrick Gasper said several health systems, including Mercy Health, SSM Health and Beloit Health System, approached Rock County school districts and offered to vaccinate staff. Janesville took Mercy Health up on the offer, and from Jan. 18 to Jan. 22 the teachers were vaccinated.
