5 thoughts on “Indiana scrambles to get COVID vaccines into arms

    1. And your alternative is…?

      Best I can tell West Virginia is going great by calling out the national guard and local pharmacies. Indiana appears to be struggling to get nursing homes done with the combined firepower of CVS and Walgreens.

  1. The Federal govt ordered the states to develop a state plan for distributing the vaccine back in October. And they didn’t until the vaccine was approved, then went in scabble mode.
    Another consideration for reaching 70, 80% is that millions have had nonsypmtomatic cases never counted, not diagnosed, but have antibodies already. So is the real % more like 40% need vaccines?

    1. I’ve not seen anyone describe how long people have maintained a state of being asymptomatic, and if it goes away, is it anything like someone who has developed antibodies from having had a round of the disease and becomes susceptible again? Or how long the vulnerability lasts once you’ve had the symptoms. Or can you only be susceptible once? Twice? And then there’s this web page: https://wpde.com/news/local/south-carolina-man-recovers-after-having-3-strains-of-covid-19 (from July of 2020)
