I believe the states all paused their distribution plans because there is so little vaccine available that they wanted the first round to get distributed via current vaccination distribution channels, since it's mostly going to health care workers anyway.

I think the state distribution plans will start going into.effect on subsequent rounds of vaccinations.

And that makes sense, because if the vaccine had eradicated smallpox 151 years before then what need was there for 5 million people in NYC to get a vaccine in 1947?

And what does that have to do with the conversation?

It has exactly as much relevance to the conversation to your point that the smallpox vaccine was invented 151 years before NYC was able to provide 5 million vaccines in a week in 1947.

41 years old...you know COVID's prime demographic...because as Trump calls it the "China flu" only hits people who are in their 80s or 90s and already dying.
