This county isn’t even prepared to administer shots? Wow I would be surprised if it wasn’t for the fact that clearly they cannot handle contract tracing or holding places like Walmart to the mask mandate. With all the ‘medical facilities in this county whats the problem? How about using the nurses at the schools to inject students and staff? Wait you have to convince the teachers union to come into work they are very comfortable working from home! Maybe the district should mandate they return first, get vaccinated then bring the kids back.
