My mom got a call from United Health Care today, telling her vaccine is coming and it will be free. At the same time, I'm hearing and seeing reporting that says we are far behind on number of doses and distribution plans. It seems there is some disconnect between what people are expecting and what is actually being executed or can be.
In a Skilled Nursing Facility in another county in California, they are at this moment calling the families of patients (for authorization) estimating a vaccination for patients on Sunday, January 3. Every county will be different.
Of course, I hear there is a COVID outbreak at that SNF, but have not confirmed it. In that county, a number of older (> 70yo) people showed up in the county's COVID numbers yesterday. Damn. If the state & that county had prioritized or even equally prioritized patients on the first dose 2 weeks ago....
