I'll just be keeping a VERY SHARP eye on the news and vaccine providers in the next weeks, LOL!
Wow, on a waiting list; how exciting! I know its just a waiting list, but still!
Here we are just going to open up to the general 16+ population on 4/19, but many in the already eligible populations have still not been able to get their vaccines.
I do think I read that they will be skipping some the usual meetings, etc, as they are not indicated given that it is an amendment (or something like that, dont quote me) to what has already been approved for the 16+ population. We will see. From what I can guess, approval will come relatively quickly and then we will be dealing with supply, etc.
As far as younger kids moving quicker, I have to also agree I think they will take their time to ensure safety, etc. May end up earlier than they are saying, but unfortunately, I dont think we are looking at super quick. Of course, I could be wrong.
