    Hard to imagine

    From the morning briefing---which I am still working on!

    The number of nursing home workers in New York State who have declined a vaccine rivals the number who have been inoculated, raising concerns about vaccine hesitancy.

    I wish I could get one. Hopefully a bunch of illegals and convicts will turn theirs down so I can jump ahead.

    So right now, you are designated in a vaccination priority BEHIND illegals and convicts? Man, what did you do to rate that?

    This is the only time in my life where I'm looking forward to getting a shot. I figure it'll happen by Summer.

    If they don't want to take it it's their choice. If a nursing home doesn't want them to work there if they refuse to take it then that's their choice. I'll be first in line whenever they get around to me.

    In fact when I hear that I'm able to get the shot I'm going to go all ass black Friday on the crowd and get to the front no matter how many people I have to stomp on

    In Colorado, we have decided not to require ID’s to get the shots. Specifically so that the illegal aliens aren’t discouraged from getting theirs. From a fiscal standpoint it makes sense since we generally provide them free health care anyway.

    The prisoner one pizzez me off a little more. While I understand the characteristics of a highly communicable illness and the implications for the staff, vaccinating death row inmates is completely illogical and makes my brain short out.

    So yeah, once again the middle aged white dude gets bumped to the back of the line.
