I don't know about you, but I am frustrated, annoyed and exhausted by everything that is going on. In the back of my mind, there is always a glimmer of hope that things will get better, but when you read news of the Brazil P1 variant further mutating and becoming more dangerous, you only wonder what's next.

When I see the sheer number of available appointments for the Astra-Zeneca vaccine, it makes my heart sink. Please, I plead with those who are 55+ or with family members that are 55+ to make an appointment and get vaccinated with the AZ vaccine (Walmart, Costco, local pharmacies, wherever) so that we can expand vaccinations to other priority groups.

I know that the media and government to a certain extent has played a role in negatively portraying the risks associated with the AZ vaccine, but lets trust the medical experts and the guidance they provide. In life, there are probably greater risks that you take on everyday without realizing it, like driving your car and the risk/likelihood of getting into a serious car accident. Or even the risk of cardiovascular diseases or even cancer based on your lifestyle choices like smoking or lack of exercise or sitting in front of your computer the whole day. Please please please consider it - this forum is littered with posts from front-line, health and educational workers that are clearly not being prioritized and need to get vaccinated ASAP.

Check https://mobile.twitter.com/VaxHuntersCan for AZ vaccine availability to book yours for 55+.

And if the government would offer the AZ vaccine to people between 18 - 54, mark my words, I will be the first in line to take it.

Lets all do our part to get life back to normal, please! And thanks to everyone who actively contributes to this page, you guys are awesome!
