We were watching CBC Here & Now last evening [it’s an exciting life we lead], of course they had coverage of the latest in H1N1 [it’s like the Eveready battery] story. The segment was on the vaccination center at MUN and there was video of a nice big building that seemed to house all those getting the shot for both for and after.
Everybody in shirt sleeves all smiles and happy and saying that it did not take long yadda yadda.
Absent was video of long lines outdoors in the wind and rain and sleet and shit. Of people taking numbers and told to come back this arvo or tomorrow.
After the segment the host asked the question in the ‘voice your opinion’ segment, tell us how the government can improve the vaccination program? [paraphrases].
Fran quipped up, sent everybody to MUN.
Meanwhile over on the left coast of the hiland Table Mountains and his mob were having even less of an issue with the vaccination.
Must be just those sandwiched between higher education and the windy coast who are having problems.

one thing i didn't touch on and maybe should of was that i saw several people there visually impaired with a caregiver. i think those people should of been taken out of the lineup and looked after first. it looked a bit clumsy for them to be in a line with a cane and people moving slowly and people bumping them. must of been confusing to them to say the least.
my wife went after work and was told that they would run out of vaccine before she got in line. so she'll have to wait until the weekend.
