They were very emotional about their relief to be vaccinated and said it was not only for themselves but for their families who love them and realized that their risk of dying was greater because of their age.
I wish that we hadn't gone off in another direction in this thread. I am tired of being lectured about things that most of us know and are sensitive to. AND care about. Talking to most people I know about race is preaching to the choir. People do care and they are mindful.

Did not need to go in "other direction ".
The source of the "steering of the thread, and to, as pretty much always go to race, was a comment made by a Doctor whose job is working on ethics. He made a simple comment that was blown out of proportion, both on "some" media sites, and on TOTV.
He corrected and explained his context the same day, and a number of us corrected the post on here that day.
Just a general question on
Distribution.....were we not told emphatically by the government that military would be used to distribute, and handle logistics. I can recall at least three times hearing that stated.
Are they involved in some way ?
