Until my kids are eligible, no...
After my kids can get their shots, then yes fuck everyone else

There's some encouraging signs that they will be opening up vaccinations to 12+ eventually. But probably be months.

Pfizer approved for 12+ today.

Hopefully they will open 12+ before school opens in Sep as everyone else starts to get 2nd shot starting in July.

Holy fuck, that was fast, or I was late to the party on that. Thought we'd be months away from Canadian approval.

Biden now set the goal of 70% by July 4th.

Once everyone who wants the vaccine has received it who cares about everyone else? Seriously. Open shit back up and let heard immunity naturally take place. I assume that's the plan, no?

Nice that the Pfizer is also one that's scheduled to get ~1 million doses into Alberta in the next 4 weeks. There should not be any supply constraints stopping them from opening up to kids.

That number is going to be used for dick swinging against other countries. Probably doesn't have that much impact on the ground.

you know I'm a pessimist when things are "expected" though. Like the vaccination delivery schedule. I was quite happy to be wrong by about 6 months on how fast I'd get my first shot.

Is there a real source for that? Or is it just piling on vaccines for 12+ being approved this morning?

Edit: Had this confirmed by someone in the know, as of Monday everyone in province can book, tomorrow 30+

[ExtraSlow]

Current AHS vaccination homepage shows 30+ starting May 6th.

This actually makes up for the increased restrictions. Net positive week for sure.

On the phone w/ shoppers in West Springs. Tried 5x with busy signal, finally sat on hold for a bit. Person who answered said they haven't gotten any news yet and will put me on a waitlist until they "get news"? Seems like they don't know wtf is going on.

edit: by the time I got off hold, they agreed to book me but earliest availability is May 22. According to the website they had open spots today when I originally made this post haha.
