The Equitable Jab Blues — Word Jazz

Going a bit nuts, a ray of hope, finding the vaccine, inequities galore. Get the vaccine, keep wearing your mask, physically distance, keep the faith. Best listened to here https://www.health-hats.com/pod109/

I’ve got the Covid Isolation Blues. I never go anywhere. OK, life is good. I love working from home. My wife and I get along fine. We got a dog. I take my daily walks. But enough already! Somebody doesn’t turn on their video, I wanna cry. This is crazy. Let me out!

I wanna hug my kids and grandkids. I wanna celebrate paying off our mortgage — a dinner out, a live show, and late-night bar hopping. OK, we never bar hopped. But this coronavirus isolation is getting old. I’ve got the COVID Vaccination Blues.

OMG, deep cleansing breath. A sliver of hope with a new administration prepared to follow the science and not try to fool us with happy talk. Dr. Fauci is unleashed. We have vaccinations! I want to get into the queue. Now! I have a fever for the jab.

But, what a mess. I’m on all sorts of federal, state, and local lists. I never hear anything. Each health system says they’re not providing vaccinations. Our local health department said, ‘we’re only getting 40% of the doses we were promised.’ I’ve got the COVID Vaccination Blues.
