Ask The Doctors: Answering Listener Questions About Vaccine Eligibility, Variants

Many more Massachusetts residents are now eligible to sign up for a vaccine appointment, if they can get one. And Tuesday afternoon, Governor Charlie Baker is scheduled to get a shot at the mass vaccination site at the Hynes Convention Center.

Nationally, President Joe Biden has moved up eligibility for all adults to April 19, in line with the Commonwealth's larger eligibility.

We take listener questions with Dr. Cassandra Pierre, acting hospital epidemiologist and an infectious diseases physician at Boston Medical Center and Assistant Professor at the Boston university School of Medicine, and Dr. Philip Landrigan, an epidemiologist and pediatrician and Director of Boston College's Program in Global Public Health.
