By now, I'm sure you've heard that Pfizer has received full authorization for the use of its vaccine.
Many of the pundits are saying that 3 out of 10 unvaccinated have said that when the vaccine is authorized they'll consider it. That's great. I don't mean to be a downer, but that number will not hold. I believe many of them were simply saying that to move the spotlight from them. Now that their excuse is gone, they'll come up with another. Fox "News" is already asking the question, "Why did it get so quickly authorized?" That will sow doubt too. All that said, even if 3 out of 10 did get it, that still leaves 70% not getting it.
We must continue to push.
How can you help?
Well, you've already done the biggest thing, you've signed - and as o 9:45AM 8/24, we're at 135 people. To that end, I've heard from two of the five supervisors. They've been non-committal but not resistant, seemingly willing to hear what we have to say. We probably need several hundred to have the clout we require to make this happen.
