Readers respond: Lost in the vaccine maze
Updated Jan 31, 2021;
It seems like getting a COVID-19 vaccine is like winning a lottery ticket. The only difference is that with lotteries, you’re told the odds. As a qualified Phase 1A (Group 3) individual, I received an email from Multnomah County inviting me to schedule a vaccine appointment. I was directed to a Washington County Department of Health and Human Services form that informed me that there were no times available for the next five months. No explanation provided. How in the name of God can our governor promise to start seniors soon? Also, I wonder if teachers (Phase 1B, Group 1) are being prioritized ahead of remaining Phase 1A people. Bottom line: This a mess that finger-pointing will not solve.
