Appointments no longer needed at Md.’s mass vaccination sites

Maryland residents no longer need appointments to get COVID-19 vaccinations at any of the state’s 13 mass vaccination sites.

Gov. Larry Hogan made the announcement during Wednesday’s Board of Public Works meeting.

Nine of the sites had already been offering walk-ups.

“Walk-ups have been an incredibly successful tool, and we are now able to make them available at all of our mass vaccination sites across the state. The sooner we get more Marylanders vaccinated, the sooner we can put this pandemic behind us once and for all,” Hogan said.

Walk-up times do vary, so be prepared to wait.

Hogan on Tuesday said Maryland was ahead of President Joe Biden’s goal of making sure that 70% of adults had at least one shot by July 4.

Overall, Maryland has administered nearly 5 million COVID-19 vaccine shots. Roughly 85% of Marylanders 65 and older have received at least one shot, and 62% of all Marylanders 18 or older have received at least one dose.

Hogan said his own goal is to “get things back to normal by Memorial Day, which is coming up very soon.”

Maryland Zoo’s lone female elephant moving as facility transitions to all-male herd

The Maryland Zoo is preparing to say goodbye to its only female African elephant as it changes to an all-male herd. Felix, a 43-year-old elephant who has lived at the Baltimore zoo for 19 years, will move to another facility later this week. Zoo officials said the move is in Felix’s best interest because it will give her opportunities to socialize with other female elephants. Her interaction with other females have been limited since the zoo’s other female elephant died in 2024. “We will all miss her but having social companionship in a female herd is the best thing for Felix’s overall well-being,” Mammal Curator Erin Cantwell Grimm said.
