[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you have school aged children?

Do you own your own property?

Do you contribute/support local businesses or charities?

I think this is what the PP means.[/quote]

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

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.[/quote]

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.[/quote]

Where do you see this information per Ward? I looked yesterday and didn't find it. I recall seeing one months ago about COVID rates.

What I find shameful is today's announcement. The mayor announced that they have coordinated with a whopping 3 CVS to vaccinate health care workers and teachers - WHO SHOULD ALREADY BE VACCINATED! They are in Ward 5 and 7, so does that mean that they only vaccinated teachers and health care workers in other wards? I posted upthread that they should just get mobile clinics out and vaccinate as many as possible in risky wards. I would like to see some transparency AND embarrassment that they haven't vaccinated teachers and health care workers by March 24. What is going to happen May 1. I have zero confidence. Meanwhile Hogan announced last night that he is going to double mass vaccine sites to protect against variants - that's the kind of PR that DC needs.
