Yeah the logistics are hard. We have done more with less before. We know how. 6 million or 3 million doesn't matter because we need to be doing 3.5 million a day. Thats just one day over months that need to be done. The longer we fiddle around with getting the vaccine into arms, the higher that 3.5 million daily is going to go up.
All the successful countries, like Israel, that are rapidly getting the vaccine into arms are sitting up pop up vaccine sites. They all have pharmacies, CVS, Walgreens etc. too. But, they are not relying on them and their hospitals. There is an urgency to get this into arms in those countries.
Every major vaccine roll out in the USA was done with pop up vaccine sites. We are not even considering them. We have millions of vaccines gathering dust. We have millions of willing arms waiting to get that vaccine. I'm not seeing any urgency to get us vaccinated ASAP by anyone involved.
