[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]MD, DC, and VA are not doing a good job getting shots in arms. This is what will stop the pandemic; not everything is about "equity". We are supply-constrained. When we are demand-constrained, let's worry about people who don't want the dang shots. Every rule meant to address an inequity or impose "fairness" will slow down vaccination rates and make it more likely that new variants will get a foothold, and we will *all* lose another summer / fall to Covid. West Virginia has the highest vax rate in the contiguous U.S. because they've kept it simple. This has been nothing but a bureaucratic mess since the start in the DMV, and every new special interest group has made it worse. All of these additional "setting aside" and "quotas" will hurt everyone. [/quote] Yes they are. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2020/us/covid-19-vaccine-doses.html[/quote]
