So, coachk, my better half, is on hospital senior staff calls at her medical center. The states' health departments are in charge of rules of distribution. hospitals have been sent doses of vaccine for distribution. The hospitals are responsible for setting up and administering the vaccines for round 1 / So hospitals can make their own distribution decisions.
So first, state health departments are staffed by beaurocrats who know how to write requirements. however, the requirements can have execution issues if they try to get too specific on the requirements. But also, the requirements can miss certain groups of people, such as private practice physicians not affiliated with hospitals.
Likewise, finding extra nurses, and non hospital settings to administer with parking, socially distanced waiting and observation areas, and medical response for reactions takes time. But the doses start showing up with a life span, and refridgeration requirements, so the initial beaucratic rules are cumbersome to execute quickly.
So in light of this experience, and shelf life, etc, there will be changes in directions and not a perfectly fair down to the individual distribution process. So enough with the SJW whining spending time finding imperfections to your expected outcome
FYI, coachk got her first shot and she had nothing but a sore arm after 48 hours. 3 of her staff got their first today.
just be patient and give the very stressed health care system a break, and help out if you can by being on time, and following directions. .
