I didn't read the articles, but I saw some headlines regarding "pharmacy deserts." These, like "food deserts," are areas where they're >=X miles from a location that could provide distribution. The concern of the articles had to do with poor people who had no manner of getting to these pharmacies and being left behind by the various vaccination processes.

That’s where FEMA or someone else with the cold storage semis come in and setup mobile vaccine centers. Vaccinate a community every day and move on.
 
Does FEMA have the resources anymore...I figured all their money went to the Wall Mexico paid for.

In other news: with the 3400 already reported dead today we have crossed the 350k dead thresh hold!

That's a great point, and why the idea should not rely only on pharmacies. But it's an effective start for most people. Since the poor areas of the country are also the hardest hit, they should be addressed quickly. Maybe even first.

But lets not get rid of an effective manner for a massive amount of people to get vaccinated. Just find a quick and effective way to cover the pharmacy deserts. There are other resources in those areas, too.

You're supposed to 'round the corner' not plow straight through it.

How many of you are going to need to be fitted for a straight jacket after playing CovidZombie for two years?

Take care of yourselves.
 
Bloomberg reports that three shipments of the Moderna vaccine headed to Texas had to be thrown away after indications that they had overheated while in transit.

The Moderna vaccine, which, while still requiring cold storage, doesn't require the extreme cold temps that the Pfizer vaccine does.
 
Wisconsin hospitals…who would have guessed?

Covid admissions this year are 3.9% of a typical year's volume.

For the greater Milwaukee area, admissions are down 8.5% from 2019.

And during the covid peak in Nov, hospital admissions were down 1% from the same time last year.

#CovidZombies let’s be scared forever.

Sucks, but it’s gonna happen.

The biggest issue with relying mostly on Pharmacies is staffing. All flu shots (and vaccines) must be provided by a pharmacist. That takes them away from their normal duties of verifying prescriptions and consulting with patients. During "flu drives," most Walgreens and CVS stores are going to have a second pharmacist on staff during a shift. However, on most days there's only one pharmacist working at a time.

There's not a deep enough well for these companies to staff two pharmacists full time for those 8 weeks.

I think of the local CVS as those thousands of little boats at Dunkirk. Not optimal, but pitching in and helping make the difference.

And, that's why you get the National Guard and military involved. How many military doctors we have based stateside?

Its all hands on deck time. Something Donnie has failed at miserably.
 
I am Jack's complete lack of surprise.

The number of coronavirus cases in the Chinese city where the pathogen was first detected may have been 10 times higher than official figures suggest, according to a study by health authorities in Wuhan.

About 4.4 percent of the city's 11 million residents had developed antibodies against the virus causing Covid-19 by April, the report by the Chinese Centre for Disease Control (CDC) said.

That correlates to around 480,000 infections in Wuhan by April, nearly 10 times the official tally to date of 50,000 cases in the city.
