Read a few comments left on the initial post, no wonder things are as they are. Personally i have seen and heard about some people's reactions from this injection and it is NOT one i would choose to give my family. If you are healthy and not at risk your body should be able to combat the virus as it does a normal flu, it is those with susceptibility that really need and should be vaccinated. I just hope with America's winter coming on you will ALL have the ability of choice sooner rather than later.

I would question why if these people are so isolated the need for vaccination before those at risk in the public? Because as far as i understand they are more isolated than any prisoner on American soil and have little contact with the outside world??

Everyone can go in line ahead of me, I have no interest in the shot myself. One more available for another who does though.

Had I not been in a high risk group I would not have gotten it either. The only way my Mom and I were able to get it was because of my x being a Dr. The city of ABQ cant keep up with demand. Its not unusual to wait several hours in line and then be told, sorry we are out.

Its a BIG mess.
