CONCORD – Gov. Chris Sununu warned the 300,000 people eligible to register for COVID-19 vaccinations Friday at 8 a.m. to expect a long wait, but said the state is prepared for at least 100,000 contacts through the website vaccines.nh.gov and if people aren’t able to use a computer, they can call 211.
“Have some patience. Give it some time … patience, patience, patience,” Sununu said at his news conference Thursday.
