Millions Are Skipping Their Second Doses of Covid19 Vaccines

The Sunday NYTimes with some predictable news.

Millions Are Skipping Their Second Doses of Covid Vaccines

Millions of Americans are not getting the second doses of their Covid-19 vaccines, and their ranks are growing. 
More than five million people, or nearly 8 percent of those who got a first shot of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccines, have missed their second doses, according to the most recent data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. That is more than double the rate among people who got inoculated in the first several weeks of the nationwide vaccine campaign. 
Even as the country wrestles with the problem of millions of people who are wary about getting vaccinated at all, local health authorities are confronting an emerging challenge of ensuring that those who do get inoculated are doing so fully. 
The reasons vary for why people are missing their second shots. In interviews, some said they feared the side effects, which can include flulike symptoms. Others said they felt that they were sufficiently protected with a single shot. 
Those attitudes were expected, but another hurdle has been surprisingly prevalent. A number of vaccine providers have canceled second-dose appointments because they ran out of supply or didn’t have the right brand in stock ......

Racism & The Public Health Emergency Powerplay

The corona virus / COVID19 lockdown plus the Democrat party coalition's race riots and cultural revolution are connected in many ways this election season. As time passes it may be easier to see we are further down a slippery slope the left is eagerly pushing us down.

Those that rule over you shut down the economy for the 'non essential' , told you to stay at home etc. and you accepted that because it was the 'right thing to do' to stop SARSCov2. Flatten the curve became shutdown until we find a cure. The economy is still hobbled by decree of the state and local governments and their 'public health emergency' declarations. It seems like a lot of power easily given.


MINNEAPOLIS (WCCO) — Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey declared a local public health emergency Monday in response to the threat of COVID-19. 
The mayor’s declaration must be voted on by the city council within 72 hours.
The Minnesota Department of Health said Monday that the number of coronavirus (COVID-19) cases in the state has climbed from 35 to 54. 
Continued:
Upon declaration of a local emergency, the mayor is granted additional powers, authorities and responsibilities, according to the Minneapolis Code of Ordinances. 
The local emergency cannot be continued for more than three days unless the city council gives consent. Frey has requested the emergency declaration to remain in effect for as long as the State of Minnesota peacetime emergency declaration remains in effect.
A public health emergency is a lot of power that could be abused ? Consider the following and potential for abuse:








Public health emergencies are an easy route for CONTROL and the roadmap is familiar.



But I digress. The Democrats' racehustle and cultural revolution in election year 2020 is dangerous to us all. If racism is like a virus that only white people can have what are the limits for the left ?
