The Struggle to Balance Speed and Equity in Vaccine Rollout
When the first doses came on line back in December, Governor Newsom promised to get people vaccinated with equity in mind. But that does not seem to be happening the vaccine rollout remains slow and reports are that people with more resources have been getting doses, even if they’re not supposed to be eligible yet. Now, the state is switching almost entirely to what’s supposed to be a simpler age-based eligibility system, prioritizing people 65 and older. It’s a group the Centers for Disease Control says is at a higher risk of hospitalization and death from the virus, but still the state is struggling to balance speed with equity.
