Not sure how it is in Mexico, but here in the states the vaccines are available in many places, but getting people to get the vaccine is another issue. Apparently, a lot of people have decided not to get the booster shot, afraid of being sick for a day, because that is worst than being sick for a couple of weeks?? or worse I get my second shot in less than a couple of weeks and can’t wait.
Common America, let’s stop being stupid, get vaccinated. Get the boosters as recommended. This is something we can all do together. It may save the life of someone you love. It may save your life.
In a city of about 20,000 and a county of about 66,000, we just had 800 appointments for first dose not taken. Governor has been told to hold future shipments. Meanwhile the local news put this out (note the last sentence):
COVID-19 vaccine appointments are being left empty in Marquette County. The Marquette County Health Department says 800 first-dose vaccination appointments were not filled last week.
MCHD has asked the state to pause vaccine allocation to the county and will likely extend that this week. The health department says everyone hospitalized in the county with COVID-19 between February 7 and April 7 were NOT vaccinated.
Well, don’t forget that when Trump declared “Operation Warp Speed” it was little more than another one of his lies. Even if he wanted a vaccine developed quickly his intent was to only provide it to those states (and then nations) who would bow down and praise him like the god king he still imagines himself to be.
Depend on where in the world you are, and whether your nation got on board with pre-orders… and from which group(s). Astrozeneca seems to have sold more preorders than they had the capacity to actually create.

“I got mine; you get yours!” How does that ring in your ears, as your children gasp and die, Mr. Herrenvolk?
