(I expect the top corps, 2 of which are not playing this year, perhaps have the fewest) Perhaps those kids will not be allowed this year? Moot point for 2021, not going to be at the last group by summer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has even commented they do not think teachers need to be moved up the list in vaccine order. This after saying all schools needed to offer some sort of in person option. Well, eat my foot. NC just announced teachers can begin getting the vaccine on february 24th. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeD Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 20 hours ago, year1buick said: The Pfizer vaccine has been approved for 16 and up and the Moderna for 18 and up. Moderna started clinical trials on 12-17 year-olds in late December, but from an article I read they are having issues getting enough kids to participate, which delays any results/approvals. Pfizer began to include children 12-15 in trials last October, but I do not see anything further. Both companies are looking for 3,000 kids to participate. Pfizer and Moderna think they can get approvals for the adolescent groups by the start of the next school year. Hence...don't look for anything this summer for those groups. Both say vaccines for kids younger than 12 will not happen until next year, with those kids receiving a lower dosage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping people learning finally and getting vaccinations started help to keep things from jacking up again like few months ago. Been following PA latest with an app and not great but at least going in right direction Edited February 12, 2021 by JimF-LowBari 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terri Schehr Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 My state is ranked 47th in vaccine dispersement. My 68 year old husband hasn’t even heard from the VA or the medical group he’s in as to when he’ll get offered a vaccine. I’m sure I’m way down the list. Abysmal. Illinois is a big joke and everyone is laughing. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Careful what you wish for.) at this stage, any kind of unison approach would be tolerated. as for PA, it's not always fun, but i have made it work and learned to live with it. i'd rather i am healthy, my family is healthy, and i'm not constantly at risk or putting others at risk if it turns out i somehow did pick it up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DFA1970 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 I'm in CA and work for a big university (Berkeley) and they are now starting to do vaccines for mid line essential workers like me. We have to wait for an official email and make an appt. Some of my colleagues have gotten the first dose. This is all through my work place. My health insurance has yet to say anything other than they are doing it for people over 65 and other people with factors but they are very slow and getting their members in the mix as least for right now. I fell more positive right now than I ever felt. We are seeing that light at the end of a still long tunnel but it's there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
