Let`s hope you get yours soon. Vaccine rollout started here, but not keeping pace with optimistic Govt claims. Unless awful side effects arise, any vax is better than none.Greetings,
Mr. BK. It's not so much that things are getting more serious in some areas but that authorities seem to be acting proactively and putting restrictions in place in spite of naysayers or protests. I expect it will fall to LEO's to enforce said restrictions. A hard job just got harder.
We just got appointments for the AZ shot at the end of the month (we're in the 70 +/- age category) BUT that's 10 days away and given the state of flux with mutations, variants and vaccines, who knows WHAT will happen.
The memsaab also registered as a health care professional so things may happen sooner depending on government preference as to who to innoculate next.
The second hurdle has been distribution but a lot of good planning was being done waiting for the manufacturing to ramp up. Still it will be July before we can say we have inoculated everyone who wants to be inoculated. Now I can’t speak for other states.
In Washington we have virtually everyone 65 and up done. In the next 15 days we should have all critical workers done. Starting April 1 we will be doing everyone 50 and older. Starting May 1st we will start on all remaining persons. We have one inoculation sight capable of doing 20,000 injections a day.
The first hurdle was vaccine manufacturing, however we seem to have over come that and the last numbers I saw were 2.9 million doses a day. The second hurdle has been distribution but a lot of good planning was being done waiting for the manufacturing to ramp up. Still it will be July before we can say we have inoculated everyone who wants to be inoculated.
Now I can’t speak for other states.
My son and daughter-in-law live in Everett, WA. He is 35, she is 32yo. Both were vaccinated a few days ago.
Not sure how they swung that one, but good for them.
Took me 3 weeks in the same area to get some ageing family members a spot in line.
Any talk on when/if any of these will be FDA approved?
First responder, in the medical field, teacher, child care worker, grocery worker, public transportation, veteran, or medical priority.
Lots of ways to get bumped up the list in Washington.
Not to mention any one can standby for end of day shots that would otherwise go to waste.
