BC is slowly making GBS threads the bed again so I'm getting as much outside time as I can before the weather turns bad and it coincides with a few weeks of covid numbers exploding due to mass reopening of rear end eating vaporwave parties or whatever it is college kids do these days

People are booking appointments in advance and the vaccines are being used by the end of the week in time for the next shipment. I hate Ford and everything's been incompetent (including getting vaccines to marginalized communities) but Ontario's been good at getting shots in arms, as long as those arms are rich old white folk which we're doing fine on.

criticizing the vaccine rollout just allows him to kick the blame up to the feds. OPEN ER UP while cases are rising and no paid sick leave are way more egregious failures

The health unit (York) is who made the decision to open that vaccine site. Many of the "vaccines in freezers" have already been distributed to health units, and many of them are accounted for through appointment bookings. Right now they are not rerouting vaccines from one health unit to another to cover for shortages because the province is getting a constant supply of new shipments. They ended up closing 3/8 sites in York for a few days, but there are still appointments available in the region. It's really not the big deal that MPPs from all three parties are making it out to be.

So you're saying they couldn't have foreseen the vaccine shortage at those sites 24hrs in advance? I'm just spitballing here but launching large scale high profile operations only to immediately close them is not, as i say, the mark of a 'good' or even competently managed rollout.

I mean again, your problem is with York Region Public Health and not the province, but yeah maybe? It's not like they physically ran out of vaccines in the fridge, there are still people going to the site right now to get vaccinated, they just blocked off appointments over the long weekend in anticipation of the shortage. It's a small blip and even happens in countries that are world leaders in vaccine rollouts (https://www.jpost.com/israel-news/hadassah-to-close-coronavirus-vaccination-clinic-on-monday-654109), and it's going to happen again. It's certainly not the metric by which to measure the vaccine rollout as a whole. You're asking for a level of perfection that no country has been able to achieve so far.

I guess the upside is that many of these shitheads have or will be getting vaccinated in the US, probably not enough to be statistically relevant on a grand scale but every little bit helps.

Another Bill posted:So you're saying they couldn't have foreseen the vaccine shortage at those sites 24hrs in advance? I've been dealing with the York Region system to get my parents vaccinated. It's a decent system and I can't fault them for much given the circumstances. When I drove my dad to the clinic he was in and out in 30 minutes. Would have been even faster if not for the 15 minutes of observation for adverse reactions. No long line ups and the website had no trouble booking people (they do not use the Ontario booking site lol). As Starks mentioned, they it looks like they scheduled everything expecting a shipment in and it came a few days late, hence the gap. If they were aware of any delays earlier, I'm sure they would have slowed the roll out to not have a huge gap this weekend. If the region is to be blamed for anything, it's having restaurants and malls open despite having the 3rd most cases in the province. crispyseaweed has issued a correction as of 23:21 on Mar 31, 2021 |

I'm so tired of hearing government health professionals interviewed on the radio who, when asked direct questions like "what am I allowed to do when I've had one dose?" give hemming-and-hawing "use your best judgment" type answers instead of giving some loving rules for people to follow.
