Equity in vaccine distribution

[Anonymous]

Oh, so DC just did not know that this program came with vaccine...

I think this is what the PP means.

Yes to all three, and I have no problem with prioritizing people at higher risk of bad outcomes from covid.

If only Bowser had chosen a more legitimate way of prioritizing people - less people would be resentful. She chose instead, to be divisive.

And then, in true D.C. fashion, has been unable to execute vaccine distribution in the best interests of the people who actually live here.

Oh STFU. The latest numbers still show that Ward 3 has 3x the number of vaccinated people than Ward 8. You people who are sitting there whining that it's too "divisive" to try to spread the vaccine equitably across the city make me SICK.

They started with the elderly, and there are 3x as many people over 75 in Ward 3 than in Ward 8.

Nobody is going to mention that the numbers are mathematically equal now and you are actually discriminating against the other Wards now by maintaining the prioritized Wards. Yes, three times as many elderly inoculated in Ward 3 but as you mentioned, there are over three times as many elderly present in Ward 3. This is most lilely why all of the data disappeared this week. It is simply too hard to massage the numbers to fit the narrative now.

Between the CDC asking DC questions, the WaPo and some residents it has just become too hard for DC Health to continue making an equity argument that is not grounded in Public Health science.

Lynda Mosley, 72, of Ward 8, saw the disparities firsthand. After a neighbor who has two computers helped her snag an appointment, she and her 95-year-old mother went to the Giant supermarket on Alabama Avenue SE in Ward 8 to get their shots.

“We looked around and the whole line was non-Black people,” Mosley said, adding that Black customers shopping for food seemed surprised as well. “They looked and they said, ‘What is this? What’s going on? How do we get this?’ ”

On another day, a young White couple trekked from Northeast Washington to the Safeway on Alabama Avenue SE in Ward 8, seeking leftover doses.

WaPo is slowly getting better at covering DC's awful vaccine policy but I am a little surprised that the authors of this article did not follow up this paragraph with a statement of fact that while white residents are traveling to SE DC to get vaccinated, there is only one vaccinatedc.gov vaccination location in Ward 3 which administers 20 shots a day a Chevy Chase Circle. The preponderance of vaccine locations were put in areas historically underserved by DC Health in order to make the COVID vaccine more accessible to these underserved residents.

Where does DC Health want Ward 3 residents to get inoculated? At the end of the day this incorrect perception is helping their ultimate cause so they continue, four months in to allow this situation to continue with no remedy. If you don't want white people in Ward 8, give them an alternative location to be vaccinated.

There are 2 vax sites in Ward 3.

You are being deliberately obtuse, or else you don't know how to read. This article is focused on how DC hasn't done enough[u] to ensure equity. As much as my wealthy capitol hill neighbors screeched about the "vaccine hunger games" when you had to sign up at 9 am in a frenzy, they were the ones winning the most appointments! The fact that white people were seen getting shots on Alabama avenue has nothing to do with the fact with the location of the vaccination points; it was because they were able to snag the appointments because they were tech savvy and knew how to work multiple computers, phones and call the phone line as well.

And the percentage of seniors vaccinated in Wards 2 and 3 is 42% and 49%, respectively. Ward 8= 25%. Ward 7=27%.

There are 2 vax sites in Ward 3.

There is only one. Chevy Chase Circle Safeway. They administer 20 doses a day.

Yes, Sibley is located in Ward 3, however, DC Health does not lottery those appointments off. Anybody in the city who has used a Sibley doctor might get a call from their doctor.

If you are referring to the Safeway on Wis in Glover Park, that is Ward 2. Though I understand that most of the city is under the mistaken impression that Georgetown is in Ward 3.

The fact that you still believe that there is some sort of technology divide between the Wards demonstrates that you simply have not read anything about the subject in fifteen years. Ward 7 and 8 residents have access to "modern" cell phones (those with modern OS's and apps IOW not old flip phones) at the same rate as West of the river residents. The same with internet access. The myth of internet deserts east of the river has been disproven time and again.

What residents east of the river did not have was information. And that is what the city government can effect. They simply have chosen not to. The optics are not as interesting as complaining about black people not be able to "find" vaccine.

Ok. Well then we know that white people could get their vaccines in Georgetown and Chevy Chase, so that's not the reason they were down on Alabama Ave.

Yes, and they are. 40 doses total between the two sites.

That is why they are traveling east. The sites with larger vaccination programs are all located outside of the "wealthy" Wards.

All I am saying is that people should not be surprised about the optics. The optics are being driven by the reality on the ground. If you want people to stay where they are, make the vaccine available where they are.

And now the city has removed the barrier of trying to sign up in 3 minutes, which IS in fact difficult to do from a cell phone, especially if you are elderly and is instead assigning appointments through the registration system with slots set aside for high-risk/low-vax neighborhoods and seniors, as well as door-to-door campaigns and faith-based campaigns. So they are making strides in the right direction.

The reality is that wealthy people will find a way to grab the majority of any scarce resource and exploit every possible loophole to put themselves in the front of the line.

Every Safeway and Giant citywide got the same number of doses, 100.

wait, are there still under 50% of seniors vaccinated in DC?? this is maddness. We need to have a blitz focused on age only. it’s crazy.
