[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it makes sense for front line workers like those in hospital, school, or police/fire station to be vaccinated at work because it could be an effective way to get the most number of people vaccinated. However, I don't understand why DC government is not counting the number of nonresidents we vaccinate here, and MD and VA do the same, and then they trade on number of future doses they get to make it equitable. Because bottom line is if we vaccinate VA and MD residents at a higher rate than the reverse (which I assume is true but don't know for sure), then ultimately VA and MD will have a surplus of vaccine and DC will have deficit. Better to keep it fair and fix unequal distribution as we go. I think asking feds to give more doses kind of misses the point- why are not VA and MD stepping up to plate?[/quote]

That would take coordination and leadership. Why would we assume that we have any of this present in our city.

Seriously, when do you think the last time the DC Health department sat down with the MD Health and VA Health, let alone the Mayor and respective Governors.

How about this, when do you think that the last time was that these three jurisdictions even practiced cooperation and sharing resources? So why do we think it would work during execution?[/quote]
