Larger than anticipated sign-up rate at ~ 70% vs expected 50%. During the first round, we expect to immunize about 5,000 kids. Lots of volunteers assisting with the effort. Lots of coordination on the part of Amanda Rowe, Nurse Coordinator for Portland Public Schools. Schools beginning to experience more wide-spread absenteeism rates due to the outbreak.
