Is there some number of seniors that intend to get vaccinated but haven’t yet? If so, what are they waiting for? I’m hopeful seeing the Villages Health is now inoculating their members.
I am just so amazed at the people who eat-up all the info they hear and read and think they are in a position to automatically know and communicate the truth.

Or - I could be wrong. OP - where did you get your advanced degree in epidemiology?
