California now ranks dead last in administering COVID-19 vaccines

I’m not sure what the bottleneck is. Any ideas? My guess is that a lot of doses are allocated for pet projects of well connected people (“let’s save 100k doses to vaccinate people at the new Chase Center someday!”). Or, perhaps licensing requirements make it impossible to fill all the demand for people who can administer vaccines (you can learn to administer vaccines in 1 minute 35 seconds on YouTube). But, the government never fails to screw up in new and unexpected ways!

Perhaps we should advocate to the Governor to waive the licensing requirements in favor of an online training video instead?

Sounds good to me, Jeff. One of my suggestions to our guest speaker at this month’s meeting, restauranteur Johnny Metheny, was that he and other owners might volunteer to allow people to get vaccinated at their restaurants, as a gesture of public-minded goodwill as they seek to reopen. Having volunteers present to teach people how to administer vaccines could potentially be part of that.

Excellent, Johnny!

Could use folks’ support in the comments section!

Hey Starchild,

I am actually looking into how we could organize that. I’ll keep you updated on what I find.
