Former President Obama on Tuesday shared a message on Twitter encouraging Americans to get the coronavirus vaccine while addressing misinformation that has circulated about vaccinations.

"There is a lot of disinformation out there, but here’s the truth: You should get a COVID vaccine as soon as it's available to you. It could save your life—or a loved one’s," Obama wrote, while linking to a New York Times op-ed.

"We feel compelled to make the case that all Black Americans should get vaccinated to protect themselves from a pandemic that has disproportionately killed them at a rate 1.5 times as high as white Americans in cases in which race is known — a rate that is most likely very conservative," the op-ed reads.

1. Problem now is the availability

and getting it to the communities that need it without a ridiculous amount of travel involved (including little or no access to public transit) - which IMHO should start involving use of "mobile units" (like those Red Cross blood-mobiles).
