A week or two ago I asked if peak demand was starting to materialize. Didn’t seem to be in the numbers at the time. Wondering myself, again.
Now you can get a free cocktail, free donuts, a free uber ride, and $25 in slot play at the casino.
We’ve made our way through vaccinating the highly motivated. Next up are those without any objection, but who are not particularly motivated to run out and grab it the first chance they have.
The lack of significant increases in cases or deaths provides additional headwinds for motivation. I think the vaccination numbers will undulate for a while before tapering off somewhere around August when most already have it. If a new variant makes its way into the population causing any significant rise in the case and death numbers, bet that the trend of vaccinations will rise sharply. But out of sight, out of mind for many.
