Did the complaint that I made yesterday about the injustice of putting front line workers at the back of the line for the vaccine get heard?

Oregon moves up timeline for frontline workers to receive COVID-19 vaccines: ‘It’s a big step forward’

Oregon’s frontline workers will become eligible to receive COVID-19 vaccinations on April 19.

In Florida anyone over 60, healthcare, cops, teachers, etc, over 50 can get the shot.

So can tourists and foreigners. I hear the competition is fierce. Everyone and their uncle went down to Florida to get The vaccine. Once the snow birds leave some real progress will be made but until then good luck is what I heard. Impossible for some of the front line is also quite common. Florida is one serious corrupt state and DeSantis and Rubio are paid off assholes who should be removed from office for their approach to the vaccine rollout .

Oh yeah, they are wild and reckless and out of control. It’s the ultimate party spot right now. Sizzling hot with gorgeous beach babes and ripped muscular hot guys oozing out Covid -19 from every pore of their sweaty bods.
I just ordered another pack of some Black KN95
Masks. The price went down a lot from 2 months ago. Now for 25 masks its$32. Before it was 10 masks for $32. I know I will need some still for a while. They are sometimes hard to breath through but sooooo comfy.

I'm out in the sticks so things are a little different. I had my name on the backup list (I'm 60) when it was 65 and older. As soon as the age was lowered to 60, they called me and set up an appointment. We had a really bad thunderstorm early the morning I had my shot. They are setup in the parking lot at the Health Department, so they called everyone with an early appointment and set them back a little. When I drove up, the line was out in the street. Maybe 12-15 cars ahead of me. But it went really fast. I had a book with me, and didn't get a whole lot of reading done before I was finished.

The crossing of state lines for the shot works both ways though. We have a state wide radio show, the Florida Round Table (or some such) every Friday on NPR. A man called in from Tally saying him and his wife had put their names on the back up list in Bainbridge Georgia, and got put on the regular list after a couple of weeks. They got their shots last week. Now Snowbirds have to show a power bill or something showing they live in Florida part time.

It was ok for snowbirds to FLY down to Florida in the fall with the Pandemic in full surge but now they won’t go back North until they get the shot. How convenient ! And fucking selfish.

Despite my advanced age/“priority”, I had no luck getting a shot...or even being able to *register* for the waiting list...until the mass vaccination sites opened. I got word they were opening on a Friday, and by Saturday night I had an appointment for *MONDAY* - the site’s first day of operation. First day being what it usually is, it took me two hours to get in, get shot, and get out...but I got my second shot at the same location (exactly three weeks later), and it only took me one hour, from drive-in to drive-out.

Check “my vaccine<your_state>.com”: it should show you a list of mass sites for your state & let you pre-register. The rest of the process was easy and simple. Hope this helps y’all get taken care of!

That would have to be criminal. Can't see how it wouldn't be considered assault.

Haven't been in a position where I've needed to use them yet, but I printed these: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4308925

And they fit amazing on a clean shaven face.

OK, you can't call these folks Florida Man. They are on Spring Break.


As curfew struck and police moved to clear Miami Beach’s iconic Ocean Drive on Saturday, throngs of revelers stood shoulder to shoulder, packing the street. In footage captured by local media, people danced on top of cars, some clutching liquor bottles. One man threw out fistfuls of cash.

Then, with sirens blaring and the sound of pepper balls being fired, those in the crowd began to run, briefly causing a stampede.
The chaotic scene played out the first night police enforced a curfew in response to an “overwhelming” volume of spring break visitors. City officials had declared a state of emergency earlier that day, pointing to several instances in which crowds of partyers turned disruptive and violent.

During an emergency meeting on Sunday, city commissioners voted to extend emergency orders imposing an 8 p.m. curfew in the entertainment district and limiting access to causeways leading to the island city. The measures are now set to continue Thursday to Sunday until April 11, the end of the spring break period.
