Vaccine Teens Help Seniors Schedule COVID-19 Vaccine Appointments

ABC7 News reports that sisters Ava and Lily Weinstein have founded Vaccine Teens, a free hotline service to help seniors in New York book COVID-19 vaccination appointments. The siblings listen to voicemails, follow up on missed calls, and keep tabs on people who have yet to schedule an appointment in an organized Excel spreadsheet. Appointments are set up based on the caller's needs and location. "Once we get an appointment, we already know that we are potentially saving someone's life," Lily explained. "Even if we put them on a wait list, it's better than not having anything at all."
