Government failing us

It is incredibly frustrating and disappointing to see how our government officials - Republicans and Democrats, federal, state and local - are handling the COVID-19 vaccine release.

The information is so convoluted. They inform us that group 1B is open for vaccinations, but they're not finished with vaccinations of group 1A, and they talk of how there is a shortage of vaccines.

Then you read how they hope to have some children vaccinated by summer, but it has not been approved yet. You have all these people in group 1B, including myself, trying to get an appointment for vaccinations, and all you hear is there's no vaccines.

It's just obvious this is not a Republican or Democrat issue. It's a government issue and nobody has any idea what they're doing. They need to stop giving people false hope for the vaccine and creating all this confusion until it is available and organized.
