Originally posted by reeftool The problem around here is that we are a lower population area and NY is allocating doses based on population. After the initial outcry of only getting 100 doses, they got a shipment of 1100 doses. It's still just a drop in the bucket compared to the overall population of the area.
In theory, if your area has n% the population of NYC, your area should get n% as much vaccine, so you should have as much competition as they do, but it doesn’t seem to be working that way.
Saying any more would probably make a Moderator grumpy.
All I know is that when my Governor said I was eligible, I was able to schedule a shot in a couple of weeks - and then schedule a follow-up in 30 days.
