Sorry OP. I hope she gets one soon!

Just FYI, only DCPS teachers scheduled to return to in-person learning are eligible for the shot right now.

That is what it's supposed to be. But DC teachers who are listed as in-person learning by their administration are eligible for shots. There are schools that listed their teachers as in-person just in case they have to go in in the future. But they are continuing to work virtually while receiving a vaccine.

Thank you for clarifying. Anyone who thinks DC Gov is keeping close track.of any of this is hitting the pipe.

Who cares? We want all the teachers vaccinated, all the nurses, all the daycare workers, all the grocery store folks. Line them up and give them the goddamned shot!

You are completely missing the point of why vaccinating all the people everywhere (when they have their own state to carry this out) could slow vaccinations for DC residents including teachers, daycare workers and grocery store folks. If DC is requesting sufficient doses and deploying ample personnel to account for this and also innoculate residents efficiently it's one thing, but there is zero evidence they have .

No, YOU are missing the point. The point is to vaccinate all of America and the world. Teachers and healthcare workers are being vaccinated where they work, across all three states. I know teachers who live in DC who have been vaccinated at their schools in VA. This is appropriate since they are teaching Virginia kids. Essential workers were earmarked as a priority group by the CDC since they are both at higher risk and come into contact with more people every day. People like OP's mom, who is 64 and not an essential worker are not getting vaccinated right now in ANY state.

The whole point of this thread is "pick up the pace." We need more vaccines, everywhere. The virus is mutating and thousands of Americans are dying every day. Contact your councilmember if you are looking for the details of where shots are going and the reciprocity agreements with our neighboring states.

Many more workers come into DC than go out. To protect the actual population of DC, you will need to vax the actual population at some point. It is completely fair as a resident of DC to ask where you are in the chain, what the statistics are and why. This isn't about good karma, it's about working as a DMV (which is complicated) to vaccinate essential workers AND others. For example, the elderly and high risk residents of each area (who DON'T have an option to shop for vaccines in a neighboring state). If this is about good karma, DC should offer free parking to the entire DMV and foot the bill for metro. Also, let out of staters enroll in Duke Ellington and not go after them for tuition. Etc. We are a tax-paying District and residents in the District should ALSO be taken care of.

YOUR DC TAX DOLLARS DON'T PAY FOR THE VACCINE!!!! SMDH

Fair - but they plus the othets are a huge bucket of out of state residents for whom DC is generpusly facilitating vaccination. This week alone-

"individuals who work in person for a licensed child care provider or an independent school that is located in the District will be eligible to book a vaccination appointment with One Medical. Earlier this week, OSSE contacted licensed child care providers and independent school leaders to begin collecting contact information for in-person staff. This contact information will be used to send an email to eligible employees with instructions for making an appointment."

There is reciprocity with MD and VA for essential employees. Don't you want childcare workers who work in DC childcare centers to have the vaccine? I get that it's frustratingly slow for residents, but essential workers have always been higher on the list than 64 year olds.

Also Maryland and maybe Virginia gave DC doses for essential workers (health workers in DC hospitals who live outside dc).

Yes, 8K each at the beginning of the vaccine distribution

Was this actually delivered? or is it aspirational? What was that figure based on? What about the next batch of MD/VA residents we vaccinate? Where is the transparent agreement and ledger to be found?

OF COURSE I want the above workers vaccinated. They also have home states. They don't sleep in hovercraft and descend every day from the sky. If DC vaccinates out of state residents, it should be worked out equitably with those states, so as not to come at the expense of PPs mom getting a vaccination. Here's a parallel for you--should DC offer to fund Metro by ourselves, just to be nice?

You need to reframe your thinking. PP's mom is GOING to get a vaccine, just not this week or next. OP's mom is not elderly, high-risk, a healthcare worker or a teacher, so she needs to wait her turn like everyone else. We've been told all along that the general population might be able to get a vaccine in spring time, and here it is the second day of February and you are pissed off.

Healthcare workers are being vaccinated in the state they work - FACT
Maryland and Virginia both gave 8K vaccines to DC for healthcare workers - FACT
Teachers in all 3 states are being vaccinated in the state they work - FACT

DC has started to offer appointments to licensed child care workers. Director Nesbitt said there will be reciprocity between the states for essential workers, though I am not sure anyone is vaccinating these folks yet.

I recommend that you try to catch the Mayor's press conferences (usually Monday and Wednesday) as they give a lot of information and answer questions from reporters. You should remember that doses are allocated week by week, so priorities will continue to evolve.

Does the DC Covid -Website say the priority is residents AND workers? -FACT
Did DC set up special set-aside appointment for healthcare workers and teachers from other states? - FACT
Do you think many more people come in to DC to work than drive out? - FACT
Does DC not require ID at all? - FACT
Do you think 8,000 doses covers that? -FACT
Do you think we should see some actual numbers and accounting? -FACT

It was 16,000 doses - I don't know why I should bother giving you actual numbers if you just ignore them
