My state says that I am eligible by virtue of where I work (manufacturing sector) and health conditions. But the hospital I'm signing up at isn't honoring those, they are keeping it to 65+ even though on their website it explicitly says 16–64 with qualifying medical conditions can schedule a vaccine.

But I keep thinking about “my people” in the DMV, in California, in Washington, NYC, the nurses, the docs, friends, colleagues, and family on 6 continents— are all telling me we are doing the right thing and it’s just the people near me that aren’t. It’s still rough. That’s the dance they do before they wipe out your village. The music. It d -
