Well The Banker and Nurse Ratchet are doing a great job. We have just been told that we could get vaccines at my two affiliated hospitals in New York (MSKCC and CUMC) but since we are New Jersey residents and I no longer work full time it is illegal to cross state lines and get vaccinated. Here in New Jersey we are behind murderers, thieves, drug addicts, smokers, the Press Corps, morbidly obese, etc. We are locked in our own prison of the political elite, if that is what one may want to call it.
Now the problem is that the virus is mutating at an ever increasing rate in immunocompromised folks and older folks with reduced immune systems. Thus more virulent forms will likely result. That my friends is science. The vaccine plan in New Jersey is pure unmitigated politics.
This is pure Kafkaesque. How in God's name can these politicians get away with this. The death toll for LTC residents today along is near 60! It should be zero if Trenton had done what the should have done. I suspect we shall just see it getting worse! It may become like the Potato Famine in Ireland, where the Brits allowed dead bodies aside the road, they never made it to the graveyard.
