States have a new Covid problem: Too much vaccine

[question everything]

The supply of Covid vaccines is now exceeding demand in rural areas and big cities, even as states lift remaining eligibility restrictions, open walk-in clinics and even offer shots to out-of-state residents.

Then ship them to India, and to other countries desperately needing vaccines!

1. States need to set up mobile vax clinics at bars, nightclubs, churches, colleges, schools, etc.

Go where the people are. Put up a table or two right outside the front door and give everyone an opportunity. Also post signs saying the vaccinations are FREE!

2. Like food trucks that congregate outside of bars

maybe offer free tacos with a vaccination

9. This!👆

In Memphis, FEMA set up max vax site with 11 min turn around time. Some days, $20 Kroger or Walmart gift cards offered.

Sadly, so few takers, they are ready to pack it up several weeks early.

Workers are calling, texting, & going door to door.

Still very low vax rate.

Can't fix stupid.

5. Bingo!!!

I was thinking the same thing. Make it as easy as getting a regular flu shot. Can most pharmacies provide them or is the temperature for storage the problem with doing that?

6. +1000

We don't have enough people vaccinated here, yet.

This is a great idea.

3. the US soon will have 60 to 70 million extra doses in a couple months as the refusenik wall is met

4. Still waiting for my Johnson & Johnson...

...on advice of my doctor.

7. Ship them to Germany!

We are hopelessly behind even the rest of the EU there.

8. Children are the next group.

I hope the vaccine is available for them soon.

10. They have expiration dates too.

Maybe if Republicans see those vaccines starting to get shipped out of the country, they'll FINALLY be motivated to take them?

If the media shows people in Mexico happily getting injected with vaccines sent from the USA, Republicans will complain that it belongs to them!
