[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm a little disturbed by the bolded in Mary Cheh's latest COVID update copied below. if it takes months to get through the priority group, when will it be open to the general population of DC residents?  I thought the goal was everyone who wants a vaccine can get it by end of May?

"And it is important to remember that there are still tens of thousands of people within the eligible workforce, senior age bracket, and qualifying medical condition categories. Therefore, it is likely that those on the pre-registration list may wait days, weeks, and [b]possibly months[/b] before being selected for an appointment." [/quote]

DC has vaccinated residents at half the rate of the 50 states. The average is 17.8 %. DC is at 11%. Have you heard any affirmative commitment and the accompanying transparent planning needed to make up this ground? I've heard compliments for our patience and "DC Needs more Vaccine!". Hope is not a plan. No merry month of May for us.[/quote]
