Holding back half the doses when the manufacturers are probably going to flood the space with doses .... it's completely awful thinking.
Of course it's now obvious that they have bigger logistic problems than that since the distribution is failing with the limited dosing they have now, so it's a secondary problem. A problem I wish we were having instead.
Since this administration has shown absolutely no ability to do logistics of any kind (Wall!) for the past 4 years there's no reason to think they suddenly got smart, is there?
