The hospital where he is being treated
should have vaccines for the patient and caregivers. Ask his oncologist to make it happen

My small southern state just opened up vaccines as of this week to everyone over 16 (!!) with a long list of preexisting conditions in order to get more shots in arms. It’s incredible. It feels wonderful.

I think the point is that supply is expanding so rapidly now that there’ll be vaccine for anyone who wants it in May. I agree that opening eligibility to everyone when supply is still very limited is not a good idea, but that’s not what’s happening.

Nah fam we’re not telling people what to do with their own bodies.

I actually think this is a disaster as a chronic illness (lung) survivor/patient who has been patiently waiting for her state to move to her phase while remaining locked down. It’s already the hunger games out there, as far as opportunities to get shots, this will make it significantly worse. I know everyone on this board will immediately dx me with anxiety, and at this point, maybe they are correct, because I literally cried when I heard this. (currently, my phase is supposed to open in late April or early May, so I’ll be competing for limited appointments against the rest of the adult population).

List it. No way would my mum ever interfere in this stuff, and I’m a typical good Indian daughter.
Is your mum willing to compensate you for the price difference if you sell to her pals?

And “she promised them”….how does she even think she could promise them anything g related to your place?

Lilau, you seem unwilling to speak up for yourself to both sides of your family. Maybe something you need to fix ASAP.
