Honestly there should just be a daily line for EOD extra vaccines. If the hospital is going to discard them with an hour left in the day give it to whoever showed up.
This is great news. Including federal support to help states with mass vaccination clinics. https://thehill.com/policy/healthcare/533776-trump-administration-makes-sweeping-changes-to-speed-up-pace-of-covid?fbclid=IwAR0jqTWmXoXLUfiOfuYMpF1Q7ppoqd0d8OJOBv7Idb5V8izSFIxL8rqdAo8
Seems a bit like the current administration is doing their best to look over at Biden's test and write down the same answers. Hopefully, they are transcribing his work correctly. Too bad they didn't just follow the pandemic plan that they left on Trump's desk 4 years ago.
To make sure no doses of the COVID-19 vaccine are wasted, MPHD will be introducing a "Standby List" on Tuesday afternoon. Each vial contains five doses of vaccine, meaning a maximum of four doses would be given through the Standby List on a given day.Each day, the public is invited to enter their name onto the Standby List. That is done by emailing your name and phone number to COVID19VaccineStandby@Nashville.gov. When the end of the vaccination day approaches at 2:30pm, MPHD nurses will determine the number of unused doses. Those unused doses will then be offered to those randomly selected from the Standby List. Those selected will need to be able to get to the clinic in the Five Points area within 30 minutes of 2:30pm. They will also be given instructions for their second dose.Once the remaining doses have been allocated, the list of entries will be deleted in its entirety. This will ensure those who enter each day will be available for their vaccination, should their entry be chosen. Feel free to enter one time each day you satisfy the requirements. Evidence of multiple entries on the same day will lead to disqualification.
Metro Nashville iHealth Deparatment is creating a standby procedure for leftover doses. Today, which I believe that the first day this program was implemented, 15,000 signed up and 2 people received doses.
I think the anti waste program is great but why are we stopping at 230. Is it still a lack of vaccines at this point?
Anyone see the process needed to get a vaccine in NYC? 50 question online form with multiple attachments needed to be uploaded including photos. Not at all confusing or difficult for senior citizens or low income front line workers who may not have ready internet access. As of yesterday evening, there were hundreds of appointments for vaccines the very next day. What a mess
New York is a mess on this? Shocking.As they bungle along, they’ll go over 40,000 deaths tomorrow.
And yet, Cuomo will run for pres in 2024. He has had good moments, and absolutely terrible moments.
While I'm not going to say NY is doing a good job. Right now, it looks like Connecticut is performing the best. If you look at the data, NY is outperforming many states in getting shots into arms. They are vaccinating their population faster than the bulk of the country. The criticism of them being widespread is to a large part a result of their being far far more media outlets reporting on every possible detail in NY.
The vaccine rollout is going very well here.I'm reading the state is already moving on to the next round.
So...carrying on the conversation stared in the Al about vaccines per day. We're doing about 1M per day now? (I haven't fact checked that). Great, only ~300 more days to herd immunity OK, lets say we can get that to 2M per day, then I guess we'd be mid summer (which we all hoped for/expected), but that ignores that *so far* it's a 2 shot vaccine, so are we back to the end of 2021? I'm really just bellyaching selfishly because I want want to get back to a more pre-covid life. But it does look like I *may* have been a little optimistic thinking we could largely get vaccines to everyone by June.* I'm also ignoring those who decline the vaccine. From a local source I've heard about 20% of healthcare workers are, but perhaps they are in Tower's situation where they believe they have antibodies so are passing on it for now...
Also, this will get better when the susceptible populations are immune. That alone will take the burden off the hospitals which helps everyone
If this is accurate it’s not good. Spooling everyone up to expect more doses then having supply be the limiter would be really bad for the states trying to gain momentum. https://www.washingtonpost.com/health/2021/01/15/trump-vaccine-reserve-used-up/
