Be a Hero: Donate Blood
Thursday, May 13, 9:00 am—3:00 pm, The Fearrington Cares Center. Make your appointment to donate using this link: www.redcrossblood.org/give.html/drive- results?zipSponsor=Fearrington. You can also make an appointment by calling 1-800-RED-CROSS and using Sponsor Code “Fearrington.” (You may need to tell them you want to schedule here in Fearrington on May 13.) All donors will be asked to wear a mask.
Handyperson Services Resume
Fearrington Cares Handyperson volunteers can now once again help with minor non-emergency home repairs and small maintenance issues in homes where individuals have completed a vaccination regime. To request help, please call the Center 919-542-6877. We will share our protocols to keep you and our volunteers safe.
Medicare covers the COVID-19 vaccine, so there will be no cost to you. If anyone asks you to share your Medicare Number or pay for access to the vaccine, you can bet it’s a scam.
Here’s what to know:
• You can’t pay to put your name on a list to get the vaccine.
• You can’t pay to get early access to a vaccine.
• Don’t share your personal or financial information if someone calls, texts, or emails you promising access to the vaccine for a fee.
If you come across a COVID-19 vaccine scam, report it to the Federal Trade Commission or call MEDICARE at 1-800-MEDICARE. And check out CDC.gov for trustworthy information on the COVID-19 vaccine.
