You need EVERYWHERE to offer vaccinations, NOT JUST special gov't centers.

Across the country, J&J vaccinations are being sent to local pharmacies like CVS, Walgreens and Rite-Aid.

Treat this like Flu shots.

It's TERRIBLE planning to only use an empty stadium parking lot with 6 lanes doing drive-thru shots.

A city of 100k may have 25 pharmacies.

200 shots each a day is 5000 shots.

Say 80% of the people WANT shots, community vaccinated in 2+ weeks
