California hospital under fire for distributing vaccine to family members of employees.

Sounds terrible, until you know the rest of the story

“The hospital had planned on vaccinating all of their employees, but a large number of their staff declined and they were sitting on a lot of thawed vaccines,” a woman vaccinated at Southern California Hospital told the Orange County Register. “‘They offered police officers, firefighters and first-responders to get vaccinated and also told employees they could invite four family members.”

The Culver City hospital eventually became inundated with requests from the general public and was forced to revert to only vaccinating frontline workers.

As many as 60% of docnurses and health care workers are refusing the vaccine, and the same politicians who questioned the safety of the medicine because it was developed while Trump was president — looking at you, Newsom, Cuomo, and president-in-waiting Harris — now wonder why.

UPDATE: Another approach”

Compare that to the Washington, D.C., health department, where they’re “explicitly telling providers: If you have vaccine doses that have been thawed and are about to expire, give them to anyone.”

And it isn’t just D.C. where they’re being responsible. Pharmacist Matt Dawson reports that “This is true of every responsible state,” and that his governor, Louisiana’s John Bel Edwards (D), “gave we pharmacists explicit instructions not to waste vaccine.”
