Why are they adding people to eligibility list when they are having trouble meeting the demand they currently have?


Because the State decided in all their 'wisdom' that it was necessary to squeeze vax shipments to hospitals and instead give more to pharmacies and doctors offices.

My hospital received zero 'first round' vax's this week, after showing how we could do a few thousand shots a week 2 weeks ago; all while pharmacies and doctors offices are calling us for help since they dont have the manpower or capacity to handle even a couple hundred or so...

We are able to do 1,000 vaccines a day easy at our hospital locations. Instead, daddy govt loves to send these to pharmacies who are completely overwhelmed

We could easily handle doing 20,000 a day system wide

Some pharmacies were in the weeds sure, we are giving out everything we get efficiently. We also didn’t get any new 1st doses this week for some reason.
