So I'm about to chew nails over Covid Vaccine stupidity. (rant warning)

35. Totally Agree!

The clusterfuck that is Ohio cannot be truly explained or understood unless you are here, trying to get vaccinated. All of my friends in other states have been vaccinated, and in Ohio, especially Cincinnati, it is the Hunger Games. Instead of large scale inoculation events, every little Kroger store (grocery chain) has some product that they dole out. There have been no appointments on the East Side of Cincinnati at all that I can see, and some that drop Friday evening around dinner time on the west side at some Krogers that are snapped up instantly. The school teachers k-12 are now a priority and are getting vaccinated wholesale, which sounds great on paper but some have no intention of going back to face to face teaching, and have said so, but got in line for the vaccine anyway (Walnut Hills High School faculty and staff, I'm looking at you) and the Catholic Schools pastors have placed the parish secretary, parish bookkeeper, the guy who comes into the rectory on Monday morning to count the collection, the Adult Faith Formation coordinator who doesn't enter the school into the vaccine line as "Teachers". Meanwhile university faculty is out in the cold, as are the elderly. We can't get vaccinated in Indiana or Kentucky just across the border, but they can come here...and do. When my friends in other states tell me, "Well, just call the county Health Service like I did' I get stabby. I am truly glad for everyone who gets vaccinated, but just understand, not every state or county has a plan. Dewine dropped the ball and we are paying the price.
