Death and taxes is the only things you get for sure.

Because you people don’t seem to think the virus exists. Why would you need a vaccine then?

But, you do have to sign up for this. It's the Moderna vaccine and you have to return in 28 days for the second dose. GOOD LUCK TO ALL. |

Sumter county to date has only 118 deaths, whereas Miami-Dade has 4155, far more than anywhere else in the state. Seems to me that south Florida and other counties with high death rates should be receiving the most vaccines.

Vaccine distribution in Central Florida as of 9 AM Tuesday, Dec 29. Some counties are accepting registrations. Others are not.
Sporadic. Also complicated by the fact that Florida has lumped the CDC groups of >75 together with those >65. The two articles below are current (Dec 29) and describe central and southern Florida. These Central Florida counties are distributing COVID-19 vaccinations for residents 65 and older; here’s how to make an appointment 'Very chaotic.'

That larger population will also have more people that do not mask or social distance. Whereas many other locations that adhere to the guidelines resulting in lower cases are not treated fairly. The best result will be scientifically based on statistical results. Setting aside the political and special interest group arm waving will allow the process to be more efficient. |

As a for resident of Seminole and Orange County and an elected official, I can tell you the problem.
Sumter county has failed with the 5 “Ps”. The County Manager should have been on top of the entire issue. Yes, The Villages should have been at the front of the general population. I’ve been disappointed with his performance since the 25% tax issue was on the table. He has not displayed the planning skills necessary to of a leader. You should be on a list for shot NOW , if that is your choice. |

Then, I assume that we will have to wait a little longer for the Moderna vaccine. Not a problem with me.

Do you have a reliable reference for that? I am not sure that is correct. I believe the Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine is OK for 2 weeks when stored with dry ice and then still good for 5 days after thawing. I believe the plan is essentially "just in time" shipping.

The reason I enjoy this blog is because of the funny stuff that people post. Just because some areas have more people does not mean that more people do not wear a mask. How can you know that? Just because the numbers in cities are higher does not necessarily mean they are more likely to die. The age group getting the disease is younger and less likely to be seriously affected. The dead rate is still small percentage wise and the way they are distributing the vaccine makes sense, the more vulnerable go first. Why would you take it from people in another county? Don’t you think they deserve to get it first, if they are residents of that county? The topper is having people continue to wear masks after getting the vaccine. That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. Why take the vaccine at all if it is not going to protect you?

Going forward - the vaccines are predicted by Washington State U. to save about 25,000 people nationwide between now and May. BUT, INCREASED mask-wearing could (?) SAVE 56,000. Ask yourself - are we a people with empathy and concern for our fellow mankind OR are we brutal, caveman-mentality types that will be greedy and self-centered and burn our masks after getting vaccinated? I hate to say BUT I believe that the latter will prevail !!!!!!! |
