For two days, thousands of people who fall in the "specific categories" for the first round of swine flu vaccine lined up at local schools, and were turned away because the clinics ran out. Today, outside Loaves and Fishes, the county health officer said the target group to get vaccinated was the homeless. In fact, they had vaccines left over, and our reporter saw people who didn't fall under those "specific categories" getting vaccines.
What do you think about that?
Should someone who doesn't fit the criteria be vaccinated ahead of children who waited in line with their parents for hours and were turned away?
Technically, Mom & Dad could have brought the family down to Loaves & Fishes to get vaccinated today. They had that option.
What does this say about the organization of these clinics.. and the long lines? Is it worth it?
