What's bizarre about the vaccine restrictions? The publicized plans I'm aware of start with healthcare workers and long-term care residents, which is pretty much what I expected. I've heard there are about 3 million of those people and 1 million doses, so even if over half of those people for some reason are refusing doses, there's no reasons to expect that we're through that crowd yet.

I've got several acquaintances who work in both areas and what I'm hearing that there are challenges: not ones that have to do with "rules", but actual supply and logistics. Still, among these are people who've received their first dose.




There's been a serious problem im CA with Healthcare workers rejecting vaccines which are then either discarded or put away in a freezer. Only 25 percent of the supply has been used, including the ones reserved for dose 2.


Any CA health care worker on HN? Why do most of you reject these vaccines?


Many of them simply do not want to be "the first ones to get this untested vaccine".

That is the consensus, and even within medical community misinformation about the vaccine has footing.
