Yeah i think its gonna be a real turtle crawl to get there, if we ever do. Gotta figure that the vast vast majority of people that want the vaccine have already gotten it.

Gotta figure that the vast vast majority of people that want the vaccine have already gotten it. I was worried last week or the week before that we would never see 80% first doses. We administered 3482 first doses yesterday and that is higher than it was when I looked last week or the week before. It seems like the incentive to get vaxxed is getting through and the hesitant ones are starting to get their shots. I am more hopeful now that we will hit the target than I have been in a long time.

Jpan85 Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 If they average 2000 first shot doses for the next two week they will get to 75%. I think 80% at 2000 a day would be 45 days. Noeller 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wanna-B-Fanboy Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 (edited) The 75% goal of single shots is... what ever- high level of single shots is not going to make or break it for the next wave... the absolute key is shoot for a very high % of 2 shots and keep the mask mandate. Those, IMHO are the important points we should be gunning for. Delta Variant gives no fucks to single dose.

Noeller Posted June 24, 2021 Report Share Posted June 24, 2021 Tonight at 7pm is officially 14 days from my second dose. Tomorrow morning, I'm going to feel an incredible sense of relief. While I will be wearing my mask and social distancing for a long while yet, it's going to be a major weight off the shoulders....

Super Duper Negatron Posted June 25, 2021 Report Share Posted June 25, 2021 Does anyone know how the process to transfer a Pfizer appointment to a teen works? I moved my original Pfizer appointment up a week to get Moderna, so I was thinking of seeing if anyone at work had a child in need of an appointment, but the press release didn't make it clear if you could transfer it to any child, or just your own children.

Stretch Posted June 25, 2021 Report Share Posted June 25, 2021 (edited) That's the thing about loosened restrictions: just because you now CAN do something (e.g. go out to a restaurant, have 10 people over in your backyard) doesn't mean you SHOULD. Unfortunately most people will react like they're at the mall on Boxing Day morning.
