This is a useful article because it includes 5 links to areas that are seeing reduced demand for vaxes.
...longer-term U.S. supply — which could include up to 200 million Johnson & Johnson doses once this week’s issues are ironed out — will soon start to exceed demand.
In many places, it already has. Last week, the New York Times reported that a “pileup of unclaimed appointments in Mississippi” — 73,000 open slots at the time of publication — “reflects … mounting supplies” but also “exposes something more worrisome: the large number of people who are reluctant to get vaccinated.”

I know several senior who had the vaccine shots in January-February. None has died or has any side effects. I live in reality world. You seem to live in world of paranoia.
You are astute and smart. Good point!!
This is 81 year old me doing my daily gym routine for 35 minutes every day, 6 weeks after 2nd shot of vaccine.

Don’t look like the Moderna vaccine has any
effect on me except now I am going to restaurants more, and getting ready to book a cruise from Bahama’s in July.
That's correct. Even Moderna states as much in their filings. The FDA labels the mRNA shots as gene-therapies.
Exactly. They spent so much time harping on asymptomatic carriers and talk about how wide spread it is, then act like the only people who have it were the ones that got sick.
You can’t have it both ways. W know of 31 million official cases. I bet we have had at least 30-60 million people who got it but has no idea.
IN my state for a few months it was nearly impossible, now they have had vax-a-thons where they piratically beg people to show up, no appt. needed.
I haven’t seen a shred of reliable information for a year. I am not going to make decisions based on made up statistics. What I do know, is genetics, and I know “what we don’t know” about genetics. There’s a good chance this bug was made by geneticists who did not know what they did not know, and now they want us to take “vaccines” made by geneticists who do not know what they do not know.
By the way: “flattening the curve” is exactly what the pandemic wants us to do — it gives it more opportunity to adapt to immunological and behavioral conditions. Same as a wild fire — put it out where you can put it out, let it burn out where you can’t put it out. Last thing you want is to let the fire smoulder on.
Maybe paying people $50k to take the shot would help.
I’m negotiable.
“I know several senior who had the vaccine shots in January-February.”
You know several people who didn’t have a problem with the vaccine out of 80 million who have gotten the shot?
Alrighty then, not a meaningful sample at all but irrelavent even if you knew a million,. Quick bad reactions aren’t the big possible problem. Do some reading about what might happen months after getting the shot.
It is worrisome because it shows that the American public have tired of this so-called covid pandemic and all of the restrictive rules and mandates to keep them under lock and key by the democRATS and Leftist media.
The Marxists want to ride this covid horse as long as they can but it has come up lame. Since they control the narrative and the media, it could be forever before the corona virus pandemic of 2020 to ad infinitum is ever over.
Expect the vaccination thing to drag out forever. My VA facility already emails me two or three times a week, pleading and begging for me to come in and get my vaccination. Spouses and other family members are welcome. And yet they still can't get rid of the vaccine.
And then there will be a "new wave" of a mutated covid that will become a problem and then booster shots for the vaccines that only work for 6 months and then masks will again be required and lockdowns and on and on and on and on for as long as the Left can bleed this "crisis" for all it's worth.
Trust me. You can take it to the bank.
I’m surprised that 80% (and increasing) of our 65 and over population have now gotten at least their initial shot. We need to reopen our schools now and eliminate the requirements to wear masks. Healthy children and young people are minimally affected by Covid-19. They certainly are more adversely affected by the lockdowns and mask requirements than they would be by an asymptomatIc or mild Covid-19 case. Herd immunity baby!
We are on the doorstep of reaching the point where everyone who wants to be vaccinated has it available to them. At that point, a sane government must end any and all "health emergency" restrictions, period.
I personally don’t know anyone that has died at the hands of
the vaccination. And that holds for my wife and daughter.
To introduce a complete Communist Chinese style of tracking and control of the population.
Walmart has their workers going up and down the isles pushing the vaccine - even interrupting conversations between customers.
Quotas?
I live in a condo complex of 300+ units. Majority are seniors.
We have social get togethers every month and Christmas parties together. Point is I probably know at least 100 seniors by first name. Vaccine is extremely popular here in Florida among seniors. I don’t think I know more than 2 seniors who have skipped the vaccine.
Yes it is anecdotal. But it is real. Not some phony baloney stats from CDC or Harvard who probably never know any people in person whose data they collect.
Yes I am in extraordinary good shape from daily gym routine in the condo club house gym. But my wife is fighting stage-4 cancer for 3+ years. The cancer treatments have weakened her immunity a lot. She had the 2 shots of Moderna vaccines with me, 6 weeks ago. If she can handle the vaccines without problems, most people in reasonable health should be able to handle it.
CDC says there were 83 million cases last year:
https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/cases-updates/burden.html
Not to mention the cases this year.
I guess well over a 100 million have had it.
Quotas?
Government (meaning you, me, and the rest of everyone else) reimbursement.
Good to know, really! Please read my post #37.
