Montgomery County may open its own mass vaccination without Maryland’s support, county exec says

Montgomery County Executive Marc Elrich is calling on Maryland’s Governor Larry Hogan to create a mass vaccination site in the county. He says if the state doesn’t do it, Montgomery County might go it alone.

In 2020, strained relations between Hogan and Elrich moved Bethesda Magazine to name “Elrich vs. Hogan” the 2020 Feud of the Year. On Wednesday, Elrich was again critical of Hogan for a lack of a mass vaccine site in Montgomery County but insisted their history of political disputes has nothing to do with it.

“We’re ready to do a mass vaccination site in Montgomery County and if the governor is having issues with logistics and people to do that, all we need is the vaccines. If we’re provided the vaccines, we’ll open up a mass vaccination site in the county,” said Elrich.

Elrich and Hogan’s differences boiled over even before COVID-19.

In the past, the Democratic county executive and the Republican governor have clashed on things like the meaning of the “Blue Lives Matter” flag to the widening of I-270 and the Legion Bridge to recently clashing over reopening private schools in Montgomery County, as well as restrictions on reopening businesses during the coronavirus pandemic.

  1. You won’t catch me getting the poison shot. If the chinese coronavirus is so bad then explain to me why they are allowing infected people enter the country on the southern border. If it is so bad why import more cases? They want us locked down and in ruin so they can have their great reset.

  2. At least this C.E. has the ballz to stand up for something the WICO C.E. does nothing but sit on the 3rd floor of the G.O.B. and look out the window. What a dire waste of taxpayers money. Due away with this waste of money that has pulled down the county for over 15 years.
