[quote=Anonymous]^ Do you see? Every state was granted vaccines for their resident populations and has a plan to vaccinate them. DC stupidly did not coordinate our phases  in the exact same order as MD and VA, but they are fairly close. If DC vaccinated DC residents, just like MD and VA are focusing on theirs, everyone including essential workers would get their vaccine in a fairly similar order. For example. MD and VA are currently vaccinating grocery workers. So why on earth is DC offering to do it for them?

"Though hailed as “heroes” early in the pandemic, the nation’s 3 million grocery workers lag other essential workers when it comes to vaccine priority. Just 13 states — [b]including Maryland, Virginia,[/b] California, New York and Pennsylvania — have begun inoculating such employees as the broader vaccine rollout is hampered by widespread delays, according to the United Food and Commercial Workers International Union, which represents 800,000 U.S. grocery employees"
