For weeks, Nick Muerdter had been hearing about his coworkers' concerns and frustrations as they tried to navigate complicated and evolving Covid-19 vaccination systems to land an appointment for their parents.

"It seemed like a lot of people were just spending a lot of time on these pharmacy websites," said Muerdter, a 34-year-old software engineer for the National Renewable Energy Laboratory in Colorado.

And then you need to try a different store or try a different zip code."More Related News
