But this site is very near communities with no major grocery stores or pharmacies. Disadvantage communities on one side.

I heard they were doing over 2500 a day. I believe it. There were hundreds in front of me and I was out in less than an hour.

Our Governor had no real plan. Except using retail outlets that don’t serve poor communities. And those in red counties got them first. If we had had advanced plans for more of these sites we could get everyone vaccinated in short order. But our Governor did not even want FEMA sites.

Granted the supply was not yet there. But we are approaching the point where supply is not the hold up, but vaccination appointments.

I’ve never seen such a jovial group of people waiting in line like I saw today.
