DC is dead last in percentage of residents vaccinated.

You do the math.

So, it’s basically similar to how dems want voting to be? No requirement to show proof of residency or ID, just take people’s word for it?

The irony/outrage intersect is delicious!

Why is it ironic? I am a democrat who wants everyone to be able to vote AND get a vaccine, with no barriers. In fact, I would like both to be compulsory.

Yes, and they like no barriers. Like DC is amorphous to VA + MD and we can continually refill the bucket vaccinating out of staters. Except the General's math is based on population within barriers. Oops!

^ Here are the real stats on how many DC residents / non-residents have been vaccinated. I did not realize you had to drill down a page in the Post's Covid tracker to get to this DC Gov link. We are entering month 4 of the vaccination campaign and DC has successfully (fully) vaccinated 17,468 residents out of 700,000.

Bowser is proud of this. She, Nesbitt + City Council are framing it as sound public health policy to bottleneck the vaccination of DC residents. I am beginning to suspect that it is tax revenue related? If they can get the city up and running (work force flowing in and out) and residents just stay home/out of the way they can call it "success"?

Of course this region is so dynamic, it is an ever-filling pot. While DC residents comply, there will be an ever replenishing group of MD + VA workers to sign up for DC distributed vaccine.

Apparently the CDC is grilling DC on its distribution and stats today. They are not happy!!

"Gen. Perna responded that distribution has been based on a population algorithm. "The percentage of that population to the percentage of available vaccine being distributed that week is the algorithm that runs," Perna said. "It is strictly a mathematical problem.”"

Perhaps before we allowed the VP to have her vaccine photo op yesterday we could have first secured a commitment for more vaccines given the unique burden the District has? Do any of our electeds understand political leverage?

No kidding! But until DC secures more vaccine, we need to focus on what is...not what if. The Feds dont give a * that we are donating vaccine to our neighbors- they are alotting vaccine based on population. As Gen Pern said, "Its strictly mathematical".

Remember when the mayor broke her own stay at home policy and broke Delaware’s out of state quarantine period for Biden’s victory speech because it was “essential” travel. How’s that working out?

Not much is working out . DC has been allocated enough vaccine in the first 3 months to vaccinate 20% (1/5) of residents. Yet only 9% have been partially or fully vaccinated. Huh. I can only surmise residents' continued "good behavior" is what is keeping covid rates down, yet somehow it doesn't get us "early release". DC Health needs to take vaccine off the shelves and start pumping it into residents' arms. There is clearly demand since their phone and web systems keep melting down.

No, we need to have a residency requirement. I can’t go to MD and claim I’m a resident to get a vaccine without showing proof. Why are we allowing non residents who aren’t front line workers to just waltz in and grab a vaccine if they get lucky in the lottery? Why are DC hospitals allowed to give the DC doses to patients who are not DC residents?

GW, Sibley and Georgetown are all vaccinating DC residents only. My MoCo parents were pretty annoyed since Sibley is their hospital of choice.

Because our Ruler Mayor Bowser deems it so. There should be hearing and charges on why, 3 months in, only half the vaccine has gone to DC residents.

[Anonymous]

Let's hope that, soon enough, with the Johnson and Johnson vaccine, there can be mass vaccination sites here and we can get the numbers up significantly.

This issue is clearly a litmus test for Bowser. Fail vaccine distribution and you're far more vulnerable in the next election.

I hope she wakes up and realizes it and ramps DC resident vaccination levels up.

[Anonymous]

Bowser stated this morning there are no plans for any mass vaccination sites in DC. I find this incredibly disappointing. With the J&J vaccine they should be preparing to vaccinate people on street corners under tents all around the city if they were serious about this.
