11. Chances are they did

but had some doses left over after they were through. So instead of wasting vaccine that would not have survived outside a deep freeze for much longer, they just gave it to random people in traffic.

I call that smart/

[applegrove]

14. Yes smart. Did not mean to take away from the importance of the action taken

by the vaccinators. Maybe these doses were the extra ones at the bottom of the vile that are not normally accounted for. The health workers showed lateral thinking and great care of their patients. It is many acts like this, done by individuals or groups thinking outside the box, that will save us all.

The developer of the science behind mRNA vaccines had her funding cut at one point 25 years ago. But she persevered. It will take committment, renewed committment, again and again, from all the healthcare experts along the chain to stop this thing. They are all heroes.

3. It's interesting that they had to hit up 40 vehicles to find 6 people

willing to get the jab.

9. I would have been skeptical too if a stranger came up to me asking me if I wanted them to stick

a needle in my arm. I probably would have said no. I would have had to grill them, make my own calls to find out if they were legit.

They were on Chris Hayes, they said very few asked for identification. I find that amazing. Just like Chris Hayes said, maybe its the New Yorker in me, but I would have been skeptical. I would have asked a million questions before agreeing.

8. they did all the paperwork and those people are now in the database

16. "Don't call us, we'll call you."

From the article:


"Weber says they have contact information for all their impromptu recipients, so they can all receive their second dose when it's time. "

12. Doing whatever it takes. That's the American way.
