I suppose it would have been too simple to hang a big cardboard sign
out front saying "OPEN. WALK INS WELCOME"


Don't you know the Post is one of those undependable right wing rags?

That addresses another problem, people not showing up for the second
round.

"Even without side effects there would be drop-off," said Fendrick, who
has been studying the issue for months. "But one of the anticipated
adverse consequences of an effective COVID-19 vaccine is that people €”
after they take it €” are going to feel like crap."

Thats more media bull****. NONE of those who have
been vaccinated in these groups have reported that.

Another tidbit:

A CDC spokesperson said the reminder card is just one part of the broader
effort to encourage people to come back for a second vaccine dose. The
government is also paying providers significantly more €” $28 compared with
$17 €” to administer a second dose than for a first, a financial incentive
for providers to successfully convince patients to complete their
treatment. That's on top of the roughly $40 cost per dose of the vaccine,
which the government is also covering.
