Speakout
(Opinion ~ 12/16/20)
I am over 80 years old with several health problems. I want to take the new COVID vaccine. I called the local health department, state health COVID line, three hospitals, two major pharmacies and three doctor offices, none of which had any idea about when or whether they would ever receive the vaccine, which Trump says will be available in a few days. There is no plan or no coordination that I can find in Missouri. The governor’s office referred me to a phone number that never answered after four calls. That is what we are left with with Parson and Trump and the Republican Party. Heaven help us if they won’t or can’t. If the paper could let us know what the plan is, if there is one, that would be a real service. Thank you.
