Is California’s Vaccine Distribution Plan Failing to Protect California’s Elderly, The Most At Risk from Covid-19
Watch Our City ^ | 12-20-20 | The Editor of Watch Our City

The facts are stark – age, according to the CDC, is the most determinant factor in death from Covid-19. So why is California ignoring much of this population in its distribution plan of Covid-19 vaccines?

Dr Erica Pan, Acting State Health Officer, leads the vaccine distribution efforts for the State of California. To date the state has announced the first 2 phases of vaccine distribution. The state has prioritized vaccinations of nursing home residents but as yet has failed to address the balance and majority of the state’s elderly who are NOT in nursing homes.

Sheesh. There needs to be math and/or logic and/or proofreading taught to writers or proofreading. The article said 8.3% of senior DO NOT reside in nursing homes. The source said 1.7% live in nursing homes.

If the establishment pushing the fake need for masks, lockdowns, social distancing, and if they would stop prohibiting access to safe, effective treatments commonly available, then I would believe their fake claims that we need a vaccine developed by a company heavily infiltrated by the Peoples Republic of China.

SOme of the most corrupt governors forced nursing homes with vulnerable elderly to accept persons with active Covid-19, resulting in large, pointless losses of life among the elderly. They don’t CARE about the elderly.

Make safe effective treatments like HCQ available to the elderly, don’t treat them like guinea pigs and tell them, “you’re welcome!”

I’ve seen these corrupt establishment types trying to portray getting a vaccine as a “privilege”, even as a “white privilege” in order to fan demand. Too many people are aware of the medical complications involved in the vaccine, and some locales have had to stop administering it because of the side effects.

The nurse we saw “faint” was taken to ICU. What to do if it’s administered in a location without an ICU? How many people vaccinated can a location fit in their ICU.

Just heard on Spectrum News 1 that Calif will be priortizing ‘essential workers’ with grocery store workers regardless of age at front of the line in phase 1B

this will be before ‘not essential’ 65yo’ds and older

Hollywood to pot shops are vying to be included in the ‘essential’ category

California teachers have joined the national teacher’s union in calling for a “marshall plan” before reopening schools - and the LA district wants $128 Bilion. - AND are dropping the hint that school attendance will be vaccine-dependent.

As the wealthy are reportedly trying to buy a place in line.

So at this rate, the peasant 65yo’ds pluses will get their shot around 2050
