I work for one of the nation's largest healthcare systems.
They made the vaccines available to our frontline workers first, then to us (non-clinical) back in December.
Let's just say that even when made available, people are hesitant to sign up. These vaccines also have an expiration date and we have had to throw out thousands and thousands of doses - a total waste. I know for a fact this is the same situation across the nation and cumulatively millions of doses have gone expired and discarded.
Meanwhile you have people in this thread desperate to receive one - so yes this is a disaster of poor planning and logistics.
As a last note - I developed a ton of respect for our CEO who is making it happen for everyone in the organization should they choose to get it. He cares.
