I understand that everyone wants to get “back to normal” as soon as possible, but seeing so many people complaining about vaccine delivery delays of a few weeks while poorer countries won’t get any vaccines for years is a really bad look.
“But I might not get vaccinated until the late fall!” Yup. And a highly-vulnerable immunocompromised person in Ghana probably won’t get it until 2023.
We Canadians like to brag about being responsible global citizens. So prove it. Sit down, be quiet and wait your turn.
Pretty much every person on the planet needs this, and every available dose is going to someone. Complaining that it’s not you has strong “Why does Sally get to open her present before me?” selfish toddler energy. We should be better than this.
