A
Welcome
everyone:
this
is
mayor,
steve
hagerty
and
you
are
joining
the
coronavirus
q
a
today
on
march,
4th
2021..
As
always,
we
have
this
audio
taped
and
it
will
it's
actually
live
on
channel
16
live
on
facebook.
A
We
will

this
episode
for
the
next
week
or
so
on,
channel
16
for
anyone,
that's
not
watching

If
you
are
watching
live,
please
go
ahead
and
put
any
questions
that
you
have
into
the
comment
bar
and
patrick
degnan.
A
Our
chief
communications
officer
will
be
monitoring
that
I
started
off
wearing
my
mask
today,
because
I
don't
want
people
to
forget,
even
though
we're
in
the
phase
of
vaccinations
right
now
and
we'll
talk
a
lot
about
that
today
and
where
we
stand
here
in
evanston
and
what
our
frustrations
are
potentially
with
getting
our
hands
on
more
vaccine,
which
is,
is
my
frustration
right
now,
and
I
know
many
many
of
yours
as
well,
even
with
the
vaccinations,
we
have
to
remember
to
continue
to
wear
our
masks
to
continue
to
social
distance,
to
continue
to
avoid
large
large
groups
of
people.
A
So
we're
getting
close
to
a
finish
line
and-
and
we
don't
want
to
extend
that
and
push
that
back
even
further
by
dropping
our
vigilance-
and
I
mentioned
that
because
here
in
evanston,
as
everyone
knows,
based
on
comparative
data,
whether
it's
the
positivity
rate,
whether
it's
the
cases
per
100
000
as
a
community,
we've
done
a
great
job.
A
A
But
I
will
tell
you,
even
though
our
numbers
on
an
absolute
basis
are
still
pretty
low
here
for
evanston,
our
positivity
rate
is
actually
for
really
the
first
time
higher
than
the
county
average
higher
than
the
city
of
chicago
and
higher
than
the
state
average.
It's
a
little
over
four
percent
positivity
rate,
which
is
still
again
very,
very
good,
but
something's
going
on,
and
so
I
just
wanted
to
take
a
minute
and
share
with
you
our
most
recent
statistics.
A
Yesterday
we
had
nine
new
cases
in
evanston
altogether.
We
have
3953
so
we're
almost
getting
close
to
that
4
000
mark
of
folks
here
in
evanston
that
have
had
coveted
19..
A
We
have
had
a
few
deaths
since
the
last
time
we
got
together,
we've
had
112
deaths
and
fatalities
due
to
due
to
cope
at
19..
There
has
been
just
as
an
aside
the
floral
project,
that's
a
nationwide
project
and
that
we
brought
here
to
evanston
one
of
our
former
residents
brought
it
to
us
in
our
hospitals
and
university
and
others
are
participating
in
it,
and
you
may
see
they.
A
It
was
on
march
1st,
but
there
still
may
be
around
a
few
heart,
floral
heart
wreaths
that
are
around,
and
it's
just
one
more
way
to
remember
those
that
have
passed
and
another
way
for
people
to
to
grieve.
The
passing
of
so
many
people
and
our
seven
day,
moving
average
for
cases
is
14.
A
Now
that
is,
is
influenced
by
the
fact
that
we
had
40
the
other
day
and
that
40
was
driven
by
some
past
data
that
hadn't
been
reported.
That
was
captured
there.
So
I
think,
if
you
probably
took
that
out,
we're
probably
more
like
eight
cases
or
so
a
day,
but
there
have
been
a
couple
outbreaks
here
in
the
community.
They've
tended
to
most
of
the
cases
tend
to
be
younger
people
right
now,
so
we're
talking
high
school
age,
college
college
age.
A
So
just
a
reminder
to
any
teenagers
that
are
watching
any
adults
like
myself
and
others
who
have
t
have
teenagers
just
to
remind
folks
that
again,
the
public
health
protocols
of
mask
masking
social
distancing,
staying
away
from
from
large
groups
of
people.
It
makes
a
difference
and
it
keeps
our
numbers
down.
So,
let's
get
right
to
the
to
the
questions.
We
have
two
guests
today
who
are
familiar
to
many
people.
Ike
ogbo,
our
public
health
director
is
with
us
and
greg
olsen
who's.
A
Our
operations
chief
and
ike's
deputy
in
the
evanston
public
health
department,
lots
of
questions
fellas
as
you'd
imagine
related
to
vaccine
supplies.
I
mentioned
at
the
top
I'm
a
little
frustrated
that
we're
not
seeing
an
increase
in
in
quantities
of
supplies.
A
I've
been
telling
people
based
on
information,
we've
been
getting
from
illinois
department
of
public
health
and
from
what
we're
all
seeing
in
the
in
the
news
that
quantities
are
increasing,
and
yet
the
increase
that
we
have
here
in
evanston
is
pretty
negligible
right
now
in
terms
of
in
terms
of
first
doses.
So,
let's,
let's
get
right
to
the
vaccine
questions
greg,
I'm
going
to
start
with
you
first.
This
is
a
question
from
william
is
ev,
and
we
have
a
lot
of
questions
again
today,
lots
of
on
people's
minds.
A
B
So
yeah
that
that's
a
topic
that
ike
and
I
have
talked
about
since
the
very
beginning-
is
that
when
we
get
our
vaccine
supplies,
we
want
to
use
them
right
away.
We
don't
want
to
be
sitting
on
any
any
supplies,
especially
first
though
supplies.
B
So
as
soon
as
we
get
them,
we
put
a
registration
link
together,
we
put
our
pod
together
and
we
get
the
link
out
to
individuals
the
only
time
where
we
would
have
vaccine
on
hand
that
we
wouldn't
be
able
to
use
yet
would
be
second
doses
that
we
received
from
the
state
and
we're
waiting
for
that
time
to
come
up
for
those
second
doses,
but
other
than
that
first
doses.
When
we
get
him,
we
use
them
right
away.
Yep.
A
So,
william,
I
ask
this
question
a
lot.
Other
people
in
the
emergency
operations
center
are
asking
and
we
are
not
sitting
on
any
large.
You
know
quantity
of
vaccines
as
soon
as
we
get
them
we're
trying
to
get
them
in
the
arms
of
arms
of
folks,
mike
I'm
going
to
go
with
the
next
question
to
you,
which
the
question
lots
lots
of
folks
have,
and
this
is
from
patricia.
Why
is
evanston
only
holding
a
few
events
each
week
to
vaccinate
residents?
Why
are
we
holding
more.
C
Absolutely,
as
greg
indicated,
we
schedule
events
when
we
receive
the
first
doses.
The
second
dose
is
a
little
different
where
we
hold
on
to
them
until
there's
time
for
us
to
schedule
a
second
those
events,
but
we
can
only
hold
events
when
we
receive
these
vaccines,
we're
not
holding
up
to
our
first
dose
doses,
our
vaccines
so
to
nesto's
doses
come
to
us.
We
are
scheduling,
events
and
I'll,
give
an
example,
and
we
have
an
exam,
an
event
scheduled
for
friday.
C
We
didn't
get
those
vaccines
until
wednesday,
so
we
immediately
sent
out
a
link
to
qualifying
individuals
for
that
particular
event.
So,
even
though
you
know
we're
holding
these
few
events,
the
few
events
that
we
are
holding
is
enough
force
to
definitely
administer
those
vaccines
that
have
been
shipped
to
us
and
we
also
have
the
capacity
to
vaccinate
more
people
if
we
receive
a
vaccine.
So
the
issue
here
is
the
shipment
of
vaccines
that
we
are
receiving.
We
are
not
receiving
significant
amounts
at
this
time.
A
All
right,
so
we
we
still
don't
know
exactly
when
and
how
much
vaccine
we
will
receive
until
we
get
it
and
once
we
you
know
receive
that,
then
we
set
up
a
point
of
distribution
event.
I'm
going
to
patricia.
I
want
you
to
know
that
it's
not
like.
We
have
10
000
doses
of
vaccine
and
and
they're
saying.
A
Oh,
let's
just
do
two
events
this
week,
three
event:
three
events:
next
week,
if
we
had
ten
thousand
doses
of
vaccine,
we
would
be
holding
events
every
single
day,
long
we'd
be
giving
vaccines
to
our
hospital
partners,
our
health
care
institutions,
and
all
of
that,
so
I'm
just
going
to
come
out-
and
you
know
I
know-
we've
been
said-
asked
by
by
higher
authorities,
not
to
give
specific
amounts
that
we
receive
each
week.
But
generally
in
the
past
we
have
been
receiving
300
to
1400
doses.
A
A
week
is
sort
of
what
the
rate
what
the
range
has
been
and
the
projection
for
the
first
three
months
of
three
weeks
of
march
is,
in
the
you
know,
high
high
hundreds
to
1400.
Again,
we
are
not
seeing
you
know
significant
movement,
so
I'm
just
going
to
say
this
right
up
front.
A
My
strong
recommendation
to
folks
is
register
at
different
locations
if
you
are
in
phase
1b
ineligible
for
a
shot
register
with
your
pharmacies
register
with
your
healthcare
providers,
although
again
healthcare
providers-
here
at
least
don't
have
much
vaccine
because
they
are
reliant
upon
the
the
health
departments
to
give
them
vaccines,
and
we
don't
aren't
getting
that
much
as
I
just
went
through
through
the
numbers
and
so
we're
holding
these
pods.
We
did
have
a
question
that
just
came
in
on
facebook
ike
from
greg
asking.
A
C
So
that
the
processes
that
we
we
have
have
on
hand
and
as
you
indicated
mayor,
it
has
ranged
from
300
to
400..
We
don't
keep
first
doses
for
a
long
period
of
time,
and,
as
I
mentioned
as
soon
as
we
get
these
doses,
we
are
administering
them.
We
are
scheduling,
as
I
mentioned
an
event
for
tomorrow,
and
the
doses
that
we
receive
for
this
week
are
going
to
be
used
for
for
that
event,
so
we're
not
holding
on
to
two
doses.
C
We
are
administering
them
as
soon
as
we
we
get
him
we're
just
being
optimistic
and
hopeful
that
our
weekly
allotments
will
increase
week
by
week,
but
it
has
not
significantly
increased
at
all.
So
we're
just
being
optimistic
at
this.
Okay.
A
All
right
so,
back
to
the
point
I
was
just
raising
if
you
register
with
your
health
care
providers,
even
if
they're
struggling
right
now
to
get
you
know,
vaccines
themselves,
I
am
pushing
our
state
legislators
talking
to
idph
and
others
to
make
direct
allocations
to
amita
saint
francis
erie
health
to
north
shore
university
health
system.
These
are
trusted
health
care
providers
register
for
the
event
at
the
united
center
in
chicago.
That
is.
A
federal
vaccination
facility
is
not
just
for
chicago
residents.
A
C
C
A
Again,
just
so
everybody
understands
you
know:
vaccines
are
going
from
the
federal
government
to
the
state
governments
and
then
the
state
governments
are
allocating
them.
So
we're
not
in
a
position
where
we
can
go
and
get
our
direct
allocation
so
to
speak
from
the
federal
government
or
from
these
pharmaceutical
companies
directly.
A
I
will
say
I
am
I'll.
Tell
you
what
I
think.
What
I
think
is
going
on.
What's
going
on
is
again
they're
setting
up
these
max
mass
vaccination
sites,
okay,
where
thousands
of
people
are
getting
vaccinated,
you're,
seeing
that
on
tv,
not
just
in
illinois
but
across
across
the
country,
so
the
united
center
would
be
be
a
recent
one
and
again
these
are
good.
There's
going
to
be,
you
know
hundreds
of
people
working
there,
but
it
does
mean
that
people
come
from
a
much
larger
geographic
area
to
those
locations.
A
What's
frustrating
to
me
is
that
we
are
not
first
off
using
our
existing
our
existing
health
care
infrastructure
and
what
that
means
is.
It
means
that
you
know
the
city
of
evanston's
health
department,
north
shore,
university
health
system,
amida,
are
either
idle
or
underutilized.
A
The
capacity
in
this
city
is,
I
believe,
and
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong
ike
between
our
health
care
partners
in
the
city,
we
could
probably
do
12
to
15
000
vaccinations
a
week
and
correct
me
if
I'm
wrong.
If
we
had,
you
know
the
supply
of
vaccines-
and
I
am
you
know,
pleading
and,
and
speaking
with
our
state
elected
officials,
folks
in
the
governor's
office
idph,
you
know
about
about
that
again.
The
approach
that's
being
taken,
though,
by
the
state
right
now,
is
larger.
A
Mass
vac
centers
as
they're
called
mass
vaccination
centers,
and
that's
why
I
am
encouraging
our
residents
to
you
know,
submit
you
know,
registrations
and
contact
forms
at
all
at
all
of
these
different
outlets,
so
that,
if
we're
not
getting,
you
know
the
supply
that
we
need
here
in
evanston
we
can.
We
can
you
know
trying
to
get
the
you
know
our
folks
and
all
of
us
vaccinated
through
these
other
mass
vac
sites.
Lynn
asked:
when
do
we
anticipate
vaccine
supplies
will
increase
lynn?
A
I
expected
they
were
going
to
increase
in
march,
because
that's
what
we
had
been,
we
had
been
told
again
or
we're
seeing
a
pretty
insignificant
increase
in
first
doses,
so
those
numbers
that
I
ran
through
before,
which
is
you
know
over
the
next
three
weeks,
we're
looking
at
you
know,
900
to
1400
a
week,
are
for
our
first
doses.
We
are,
and
I
think,
the
state's
doing
a
good
job.
We
are
getting
doses
for
once.
You've
gotten
your
first
shot
to
get
that
second
dose.
A
People
are
probably
familiar
that
johnson
and
johnson
just
had
their
vaccine
approved
this
week.
That
is
rolling
out
across
the
country.
When
I
did
speak
to
a
representative
for
the
governor's
office
and
idph
just
two
days
ago,
they
were
optimistic
that
that's
going
to
increase
the
supply.
Of
course
I
said
well,
does
that
mean
evanson
then
is
going
to
see
some
more
of
this
increased
supply.
A
I
think
we
have
to
to
wait
and
see,
but
the
johnson
and
johnson
is
vaccine
is
one
shot,
and
so
that
makes
it
more
efficient
for
all
of
us.
So
that's
a
good
thing,
so
we
should
see
supplies
increase
there,
but
I
can't
give
you
a
good
guess
of
when
we're
gonna
see
the
supply
increase
here
in
evanston.
A
So
daniel
and
ann
asked
the
question
greg
I'll
throw
this
over
to
you.
Will
the
city
receive
johnson
and
johnson
vaccine
doses?
If
so,
will
residents
have
the
option
of
choosing
which
vaccine
they
receive.
B
So
they
will
be
distributing
it
out
to
the
other
jurisdictions
as
far
as
residents
having
a
choice
between
choosing
which
vaccine
they
get
again
right.
Now,
we're
not
at
a
point
where
we
can
be,
you
know,
pick
and
choose
which
vaccine
we
want.
So
if
you
become
eligible
for
a
vaccine,
whichever
one
is
available,
it's
highly
recommended
and
suggested
that
you
take
the
first
available
vaccine.
A
Great
and
alexandria
had
a
question
which
vaccines
has
evanston
been
distributing,
thus
far,
pfizer
and
or
moderna
greg.
B
So
at
our
evanston
pods
we've
been
distributing
the
moderna
vaccine,
we've
only
gotten
a
small
allocation
of
pfizer,
which
we
have
initially
sent
over
to
the
two
hospital
systems,
and
I
think
the
state
realizes
that
local
health
departments
prefer
moderna
vaccine
just
because
it's
a
little
bit
user
friendly.
Logistically
wise.
However,
that
has
storage.
The
storage
specs
of
pfizer
has
changed
recently.
They
can
be
held
at
a
normal
freezer
for
up
to
two
weeks,
so
that
makes
things
a
little
bit
easier
for
us.
A
One
wonder
wonderful,
and
just
for
folks
out
there
in
case
you're
talking
to
neighbors
or
residents
that
have
gotten
a
shot.
Amida
saint
francis
recently
has
been
a
they've,
always
been
a
great
partner
of
evanston,
but
recently
they
have
been
helping.
Our
public
health
department
administer
the
pfizer
shots,
so
residents
have
been
going
to
meet
a
saint
francis
to
to
get
those
fi
to
get
those
fisa
shots.
Sarah
had
a
question
on
facebook.
C
Absolutely
one
of
the
things
that
the
state
has
been
consistent
on
is
sending
us
the
second
ghosters.
So
if
you
receive
the
first
doses,
you
can
confidently
know
that
you
are
going
to
get
your
second
dose
and
it
has
been
like
I
mentioned,
on
a
consistent
and
steady
steady
basis,
so
that
wouldn't
be
a
problem
there
yeah.
A
Yep,
the
state's
been
doing
a
really
good
job.
I
mean
again
I've
sort
of
expressed
some
frustration
in
terms
of
us
seeing
an
increase
in
the
first
dose
allotments,
which
I
don't
feel
like
we're,
seeing
a
substantial
increase
that
we
were
led
to
believe
we
should
be
seeing,
but
they've
been
doing
a
really
good
job
of
getting
second
doses
and
again
reminder
if
you're,
a
moderner
and
you're
getting
your
second
dose
of
28
days
or
pfizer
at
21
days.
A
Remember
cdc
has
been
very
clear
that
you
could
go
six
weeks
after
that
date
to
get
it.
So
I
don't
want
anyone
to
think.
Oh
man,
it's
the
21.
First
day
I've
got
to
get
the
vaccine.
You
could
get
it
on
the
25th
of
the
26th
26th
day.
I
think
evanston's
been
doing
a
pretty
good
job,
getting
it
around.
What
would
you
say
within
what,
within
what
period
of
time
a
week
or
two
of
somebody's
due
date
for
the
second
vaccine
hike,
I
would
say.
A
Two
to
five
days
of
their
due
date:
they
were
getting
it.
So
that's
that's
a
really
good!
That's
a
really
good
stat!
Sarah
also
wanted
to
know
she
thinks
you
guys
are
doing
a
great
job
there
in
the
public
health
department,
greg
and
ike.
Okay
carol
had
a
question
on
facebook.
Why
can't-
and
this
is
a
question
that
I'm
getting
a
lot
and
we're
going
to
be
putting
some
more
information
out
and
ike.
A
C
So
it's
something
that
is
being
sorted
out
between
cook
county
and
the
state.
My
understanding
is
that
the
vaccines
allotted
to
county
is
being
used
at
these
various
sites.
So
I'm
still
waiting
for
information
pertaining
to
whether
residents
would
be
able
to
access
those
sites
and
if
it's
accessible
by
evanston
residents,
which
I'm
I'm
being
hopeful
for,
that
will
actually
increase
the
number
of
people
who
can
get
vaccinated.
But
I'm
still
waiting
for
that
confirmation
from
cook
county
on
understated
or
not.
A
Carol,
we
are
working
on
that
I've
been
speaking
to
folks
about
that
as
as
well,
if
we're
not
going
to
see
a
substantial
increase
in
our
supply
of
vaccines,
then
our
residents
ought
to
be
able
to
attend.
A
mass
vac
location
in
cook.
County
is.
How
is
how
I
feel-
and
I
know
our
public
health
department
feels
that
way,
so
we're
going
to
continue
to
work
on
that,
but
thank
you
for
that.
C
One
thing
mayor
that
the
united
center
is
accessible
to
all
illinois
residents.
So
if
you're
never
resident,
you
can
access
the
united
states
senator
by
going
online
and
filling
out
a
form
for
registration
and,
at
this
time,
be
accepting
registrations
for
those
who
are
65
and
older,
and
after
they've
substantially
vaccinated
those
individuals.
They
will
move
to
those
who
are
in
1b
accentual
workers.
A
Great,
thank
you.
Thank
you
for
that
ike
again
right
that
problem
that
we're
experiencing
our
residents
are
with
cook
county
mass
vaccination
sites
does
not
apply
to
the
united
center
site.
So
definitely,
if
you
are
eligible
in
that
phase,
1b
please
go
online
and
apply
to
get
the
vaccination.
There.
A
Jeff
had
a
question
on
facebook
and
again
I've
heard
this
question
from
lots:
lots
of
people
who
are
under
the
age
of
70
right
now,
but
maybe
in
their
mid
or
upper
60s.
He
says
I'm
66.
When
can
I
expect
to
receive
my
first
dose
through
the
evanston
health
department
greg?
Do
you
want
to
you
want
to
take
this
one
and
share
with
people
where
we
are
with
our
points
of
distribution?
What
age
we're
at
right
now.
B
Yeah,
of
course,
so
as
we've
been
saying
this
whole
time,
our
vaccine
supply
has
been
limited,
so
we
were
forced
to
prioritize
who
we
gave
it
to
within
phase
1b,
and
so
we
prioritized
our
the
most
vulnerable,
the
most
older
population,
just
because
they're
most
vulnerable
to
effects
of
covid19.
B
So
right
now
we
are
at
about
age,
69
we're
below
the
70s.
So
we
are
getting
a
lot
closer
to
fully
vaccinating
the
age
65
and
up
and
depending
on
our
allocation
from
this
state,
we're
given
three
week
three
week,
projections
that
you
know
they're
just
projections
they
can
change,
they
can
go
up,
I'm
expecting
them.
I'm
hopeful
that
they
will
go
up
with
president
biden's
announcement
of
every
american
getting
vaccinated
by
the
end
of
may.
B
A
Do
you
have
a
sense,
ike
or
greg
how
many,
how
many
folks
have
submitted
a
contact
form
that
are
between
the
ages
of
65
and
70.?
That
may
give
people
a
feeling
for
hey,
there's
5
000
people
in
this
cohort
you
know
and
then
maybe
you
could
do
some
math
and
second
minutes.
That's
about
a
thousand
for
each
age.
C
Right,
yeah
and
the
last
time
we
ran
numbers.
We
were
in
the
tune
of
about
four
thousand
individuals
who
fit
that
particular
age
age
group,
but
we
also
have
to
understand
that
most
of
those
individuals
or
a
number
of
those
individuals
have
probably
gotten
vaccinated
through
other
vaccination
outlets.
C
So
that's
where
we
stand,
but
we
are
hopeful
that
perhaps
in
the
next
three
weeks
or
so,
we
should
be
down
to
65
the
age
group
of
65.
We
started
as
greg
mentioned
with
our
oldest,
who
are
the
most
fragile
and
we've
progressively
worked
down
in
the
descending
order
to
those
who
are
70
79
now,
so
it
will
just
be
a
lot
of
time
until
we
get
to
our
oldest
population,
then
we
can
move
into
other
groups
in
one
being.
A
Great
great,
I
just
want
to
reiterate
again:
the
city
of
evanston's
philosophy
is
given
the
limited
number
of
vaccines
that
we
have.
A
We
are
have
been
primarily
focused
on
those
that
are
most
at
risk
of
having
severe
complications
should
they
get
cobit
19
and
the
data
is
clear
on
that
that
it
is
the
the
older
you
are
the
more
severe
your
complications
can
be.
If
you
get
it
so,
with
the
limited
supply
we've
been
working
down
from
oldest,
you
know,
down
to
65
and
as
greg-
and
I
just
mentioned,
we
are
right
around
six,
the
age
of
69
right
now
for
our
for
our
events.
A
So
if
you
are
jeff
66,
you
know,
hopefully,
in
a
couple
weeks,
you
will
get
a
notice
that
you
will
be
able
to
register
again.
I
think
we're
looking
at
as
greg
mentioned.
These
are
just
projections
we
get
from
the
state,
but
let's
just
say,
if
we
get
around
3,
000
or
so
vaccines
over
the
next,
you
know
three
weeks
or
so
you
know
we
should
make
a
decent
dent
into
that
65
to
70
age
group,
all
right
question
from
elle.
A
I
could
you
just
talk
to
the
talk
to
folks
about
the
efficacy
rate
of
these
and
whether
that
really
should
be
something
we're
thinking
about?
Take
us
through
that
process.
C
Yeah,
absolutely
yeah,
if
you
analyze
the
vaccines
we
have
modena
and
fisa
respectively,
have
about
94
to
95
efficacy.
The
johnson
johnson
does
have
a
lower
efficacy,
but
even
with
the
lower
efficacy
of
about
70
to
70
75,
it
is
a
greater
efficacy
than
our
flu
vaccines.
C
So
there
is
definitely
some
efficacy
there
and
when
we
are
having
these
conversations
of
johnson
and
johnson,
of
course,
when
we
start
receiving
them
and
who's
going
to
receive
it,
we
also
want
to
apply
equity,
and
at
this
point
we
will
get
and
receive
any
vaccine.
We
can,
but
one
of
the
things
that
we
have
made
visible
during
our
vaccination
process
is
being
transparent
as
to
which
vaccine
people
are
getting.
C
So
if
we
get
johnson
and
johnson
and
we
don't
have
any
other
vaccine,
that's
what
that
individual
will
be
getting
we'll
be
making
that
clear
to
the
individual.
We
have
johnson
johnson.
These
are
the
only
vaccines
we
have
available
and
if
you
agree,
you
will
be
administered
to
this,
this
particular
vaccine.
But
at
this
time
no
one
really
has
a
choice
as
to
what
vaccine
they
are
they
are
receiving,
and
if
people
want
to
opt
out
to
proceed
in
the
johnson
johnson,
we
understand
that.
A
Do
I
get
the
moderna?
Do
I
get
the
johnson
and
johnson?
Because
you
know
all
of
their
effectiveness
against
the
variants
may
differ
as
well,
and
so
it's
a
tough
it's
a
tough
analysis
to
do
right
now,
because
again,
this
is
a
novel
virus.
These
vaccines
are
new.
The
good
news
is
the
vaccines
are
working.
A
Are
we
just
take
evanston,
for
example,
all
of
our
senior
living
facilities?
We
have
not
seen
a
case
of
coven
19
with
our
seniors,
many
of
whom
are
had
chose
to
be
vaccinated.
A
high
high
percentage,
I
think,
was
over
90
of
seniors
in
our
senior
living
communities
were
vaccinated
and
we're
not
seeing
any
cases
right
now
so
and
that
that's
consistent
with
what's
going
on
around
the
country
so
right
now,
the
effectiveness
of
these
vaccines
is
mirroring
the
studies
that
were
done.
A
So
that's
really
good
news
for
for
all
of
us
question
from
michael,
I
am,
and
this
needs
a
real
clear
answer.
I
am
over
65,
but
have
not
yet
had
the
opportunity
to
be
vaccinated.
Can
I
be
confident
that
the
vaccine
will
be
available
to
me
if
I
wait.
My
turn
here
in
evanston.
C
Absolutely,
and
as
I
mentioned,
we
are
taking
an
approach
of
our
oldest
and
working
our
way
down
in
a
course
descending
order
and,
as
I
mentioned
now,
we're
in
the
1779
age
ranges.
And
hopefully
you
know
if
our
projections
are
right
by
the
end
of
the
month,
and
this
is
us
being
optimistic
that
we
should
be
vaccinating
those
who
are
65
66
67
in
oda.
A
Thank
you
mike
we're
going
to
turn
to
a
couple
questions
that
are
coming
in
on
facebook.
Nancy
asked
the
question:
should
residents
remove
themselves
from
the
city's
list
if
they've
gotten
the
vaccine
elsewhere?
If
so,
how
do
we
do
that.
C
No,
no!
It's
not
something
that
I'm
going
to
encourage
at
this
time.
If
you
receive
the
notification
to
register
for
a
vaccine
and
if
you've
received
it
just
ignore
the
the
notification,
I
will
rather
do
it
in
that
fashion,
rather
than
people
going
in
okay.
A
So
there's
no
need
if
you've
gotten
the
and
I
am
encouraging
people
go,
get
the
vaccine
anywhere.
You
can
anywhere,
you
can
get
it,
but
don't
worry
about
if
you've.
If
you
completed
the
contact
form
here
that
you
have
to
do
something
once
you
get
a
notice
from
us,
you
just
say:
no,
I
don't
need
it
or
don't
respond
and
the
city
will
will
pass
on
the
slot
to
the
next
person.
B
And
also
another
thing
that
we've
noticed
is
a
large
number
of
people
share,
email
addresses.
So
in
the
beginning
we
made
the
decision
to
not
remove
email
addresses
of
people
who
are
already
vaccinated
just
in
case
they're.
These
two
individuals
are
eligible
at
different
times.
We
didn't
want
to
miss
sending
that
initial
person,
the
registration
link,
so
if
you
get
it-
and
you
already
got
it
just
disregard.
A
A
Well,
let
me
just
start
off
again:
I
think
we've
covered
it
a
lot.
We
don't
control
the
number
of
the
quantity
of
vaccines
that
we
get
that
is
dictated
by
by
the
state
you
know
to
to
us,
and
so
we
can
only
work
with
the
vaccines
that
that
we
have
and
again
we
describe
the
philosophy
that
we're
approaching,
which
is
you
know
seeing
seniors.
Are
you
know
getting
the
vast
majority
of
these
vaccinations
right
now
and
we're
working
our
way
down?
A
Anything
else
to
add.
Add
to
that,
but
I
can't
explain.
I
don't
know
enough
about.
What's
going
on
in
indiana,
to
know
why
they're
at
60
and
older,
I
can
tell
you
every
state's
approaching
it
slightly
differently.
Some
aren't
doing
necessarily
a
prioritization
again.
I
wish
we
didn't
have
to
do
a
prioritization.
If
we
had
enough
vaccines,
we
wouldn't
be
doing
that,
but
some
states
are
just
making
the
decision
hey.
Anyone
can
come
and
get
and
get
the
vaccine,
but
the
state
of
illinois
hasn't
really
done
that
either
right.
B
A
Great
so
that
quick,
two
other
quick
questions
and
then
we're
going
to
move
on
to
city
vaccination
plans
and
priorities
question
from
teresa.
When
will
high
school
students
16
and
older,
be
able
to
get
the
vaccine
any
idea.
C
So
for
right
now
those
individuals
will
qualify
for
phase
phase
phase
two
or
face
one
one
b,
part
two
if
they
have
any
medical
conditions,
but
if
they
do
not
have
any
of
the
medical
conditions
highlighted
by
the
recommendations
provided
they,
those
individuals
will
be
vaccinated
when
the
general
public
gets
gets
vaccinated.
So
that's
where
we
are
so
phase,
one
b
part
two
emphasizes
or
provides
guidelines
to
who
will
receive
the
vaccine
1664
with
medical
conditions
ranging
from
obesity,
pulmonary
issues,
cancer,
heart
disease
diabetes.
C
A
C
All
all
vaccines
are
highly
effective
and
the
thighs
and
the
modain
and,
of
course,
the
johnson
and
johnson
that
prescott
got
approved
and
these
vaccines
they
go
through
rigorous
reviews
before
they
are
given
to
to
the
public
the
same
with
fines,
they're
the
same
with
matayana,
so
they
do
have
efficacies
with
johnson
and
johnson.
It's
a
bit
lower
efficacy,
but
is
still
effective
in
preventing
hospitalizations
and
infections.
A
Okay,
all
right,
thank
you.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
mike
and
keep
the
questions
coming
on
facebook.
I
think
we've
covered
all
those
now
we're
going
to
move
to
other
questions
that
were
submitted
beforehand.
We're
now
moving
to
a
section
called
city,
vaccination
plan
and
priorities.
Joanne
had
the
first
question:
ike
is
the
public
health
director
I'm
sending
this
one
your
way.
Why
was
the
mayor
me
abel?
Why
was
I
vaccinated
before
residents
in
their
60s
absolutely.
C
So
I
want
to
make
this
clear.
I
understand
that
there
are
a
number
of
publications
who
publicize
this
distinct,
this
information,
so
to
make
it
clear
the
mayor
was
not
vaccinated
because
he's
an
elected
official
the
mayor
was
vaccinated
because
he
has
been
part
and
parcel
of
our
eoc,
which
is
the
emergency
operations
center
that
we
initiated
at
the
beginning
of
this
pandemic
in
another
for
us
to
respond
to
government
19..
A
Yeah,
thank
you
like
these
are
top.
These
are
tough
questions
and
decisions
that
have
to
be
made,
and
they
are
decisions
that
you
know
sort
of
rest
on
our
public
health
director's
shoulders
to
have
to
make.
But
we
see
these
kind
of
questions
all
all
the
time
and
that
one
happened
to
relate
to
me
in
my
role
in
the
emergency
operations
center,
but
we
see
it
all
the
time
where
people
say
hey.
A
Why
is
you
know
some
healthy
seven-year-old
getting
vaccinated
before
me
and
I
have
a
co-morbidity
and
I'm
you
know
50,
but
I'm
at
a
higher
risk
and
so
so
difficult
decisions
again
at
the
end
of
the
day,
we
want
to
get
as
many
people
vaccinated
as
quickly
as
possible.
A
B
Yes,
we
made
that
determination
very
early
in
the
vaccine
process,
because,
even
if
you
don't
live
in
evanston,
you
work
here
and
you
spend
a
good
majority
of
your
day
as
part
of
our
community
that
can
be
at
risk
of
spreading
disease.
So
we
want
to
make
sure
everyone
in
our
community
is
vaccinated,
so
the
percent
of
vaccines
going
to
evanston
residents
as
opposed
to
non-residents,
so
we're
working
through
our
data
right
now
we
recently
put
on
our
vaccine
dashboard
on
the
website.
B
A
So
again,
people
can
find
the
dashboard
on
on
the
website
if
they
just
go.
What
to
city
of
evanston.org
backslash
or
forward
slash
vaccines,
yes,
yep
and
that's,
and
that's
where
they'll
find
it
vaccine
yep.
Okay,
all
right!
Next
question
from
nancy:
do
you
have
to
be
a
resident
of
evanston
to
get
a
vaccine
here.
C
Yes,
live
or
work
in
evanston
and
then
greg
alluded
to
it
is
a
community
effort
forced
to
do
the
vaccination,
so
we
consider
people
who
do
not
live
in
ever
simple
work
in
evanston
as
our
community
members,
so
residents
and
those
who
live
in
evanston
both
qualified
to
receive
a
vaccine
in
our
and
our
parts.
A
Okay,
all
right,
so
you
have
to
live
here
or
work
here,
nancy
to
qualify
for
a
vaccine
here
in
evanston
I
mentioned
the
dashboard
a
second
ago.
We
just
got
a
question
from
patricia
based
on
the
city's
vaccine.
Dashboard
you
go
to
it.
Why
is
there
such
a
significant
percentage
of
doses
going
to
individuals
under
65
years
old?
What's
going
on?
There.
C
C
As
you
know,
we
do
have
a
prioritization
plan
where
it
is
structured
in
a
way
where
priority
is
given
to
certain
groups.
So
you
have
group
1a,
phase,
1a
phase,
1
b
and
phase
1
b,
part
2..
So
in
phase
1a
you
have
our
healthcare
workers,
those
who
are
working
in
our
healthcare
facility,
so
those
individuals
were
vaccinated
and
also,
if
you
take
a
look
at
group
1b
where
our
65
and
older
are
categorized,
you
have
our
essential
workers
as
well,
who
might
not
be
65
and
older
you're.
Talking
about
our
police.
C
We
talk
about
firefighters
and
other
essential
workers.
So,
that's
why
you
see
that
significance
there
for
the
individuals
who
are
not
65
and
older
because
they
meet
the
the
requirements
or
the
the
recommendations
to
get
vaccinated
prior
to
r-65
and
older,
or
in
conjunction
with
r-65
and
older
groups,
because
they're
in
the
same
group
1b
as
I-65
and
then
get
redux.
A
C
C
Pods
pod,
we
are
close
to
about
50
to
55,
but
also,
if
you
factor
in
those
who
got
administered
the
vaccine
at
a
meter,
then
that
percentage
actually
increases,
but
that
is
not
reflected
on
our
dashboard
right
now.
What
is
being
reflected
are
those
who
receive
the
vaccine
at
our
part,
and
if
you
look
at
the
dashboard
on
the
far
right
side,
you
will
see
vaccines
that
were
distributed.
Those
were
vaccines
that
were
given
to
our
vaccine
providers,
our
local
hospitals.
A
So
even
the
900,
or
so
that
pfizer
that
we
gave
amida
and
told
amita
who
to
vaccinate
which
were
over
the
65
group,
you're
saying
that
doesn't
show
up
on
our
dashboard
okay.
So
it's
hard
again
yeah!
I
I
understand.
A
A
1100,
okay,
all
right
so
again
we
will
continue
to
analyze
the
data
and
try
to
present
it
in
the
most
helpful
way
as
we
can
again
there.
It's
not
super
straightforward
because
of
just
like
that
example
that
I
talked
about,
but
we
have
a
data
team.
That's
working
on
that
we'll
try
to
get
better.
I
think
it's
going
to
be
a
similar
process
to
the
way
it
was
on
the
coping
19
statistics
right.
A
What
we
initially
put
out
was
pretty
basic
and
then
we
were
able
to
get
more
and
more
sophisticated
as
time
as
time
went
on,
and
I
hope
the
same
thing
can
happen
with
vaccinations
all
right.
Let's
go
to
the
the
next
question.
Can
you
provide
information
about
the
city's
plans
to
vaccinate
homebound
individuals?
C
C
B
All
right
and
each
each
staff,
individual
that
will
be
going
out
to
administer
the
vaccines,
is
going
to
be
having
a
field
kit
with
them.
That
will
allow
them
to
treat
and
manage
any
sort
of
anaphylactic
shock
or
allergic
reactions,
while
on
site,
and
also
that's
a
it's
a
very
rare
thing
to
happen
for
them
during
a
vaccine.
It's
about
two
and
a
half
cases
of
an
allergic
reaction
per
every
one
million
doses
given
so
it's
very
rare,
but
our
vaccinators
on
site
will
be
have
the
necessary
supplies
and
medications.
A
Thank
you
mike
question.
Nannies
must
be
in
contact
with
children
and
families.
Are
they
considered
an
essential
worker
as
part
of
phase
1b.
C
So
nannies,
unfortunately,
are
not
mentioned
in
our
priority
plans,
at
least
the
state's
private
plans,
because
our
plans
of
course
tailors
that
at
this
stage,
what
they
mentioned
of
course,
are
day
care
workers
or
those
who
are
working
in
in
child
care,
centers
those
individuals
or
prioritizing
1b.
But
I
will
certainly
like
to
get
clarification
from
the
state
in
that
regard.
But
presumably
those
individuals
will
have
to
fall
into
phase
two.
But
I
would
like
to
get
an
advice
from
the
state
so
that
they
can
clear
that
up
a
little.
But
when.
C
So
there
really
isn't
a
phase
one
c
that
has
kind
of
been
removed.
It's
pretty
much
in
draft
at
this
time,
they're
working
on
it.
So
what
the
stage
did
was
move
those
individuals
to
1
1c
into
phase
1b
plus
I
like
to
call
it
phase
1b
plus,
so
these
are
individuals
or
those
who
are
60
16
to
64
will
have
medical
conditions.
C
So
I
mentioned
phase
two
because
after
phase
one
one
b,
plus
you're
left
with
fake
phase
two
and
that's
when
the
general
public
gets
vaccinated,
but
I
would
like
to
get
clarification
where
nannies
were
not
affiliated
with
daycare,
centers
or
other
child
care
providers
where
they
fit
in
in
these
categories.
But
as
it
stands,
they
have
not
been
indicated
to
means
to
any
encounter.
A
Like,
let's
talk,
educators
got
a
couple
questions
here
of
robert
asked:
why
is
the
city
vaccinating
some
teachers
who
are
younger
and
teaching
remotely
before
individuals
65
to
70.?
So
why
don't
you
talk
about
you,
know,
educators,
early
childhood
providers
and
and
how
the
city's
approaching
that
group.
C
C
C
So
there
was
one
of
the
odors
providing
in
class
in-person
activities
while
being
vaccinated
first
and
we're
working
in
that
order
they
get
vaccinated.
First,
then,
we
move
to
the
next
age
group
in
a
descending
order.
So
that's
how
we
have
implemented
that
that
program.
So
we
do
have
an
event
for
teachers
come
come
tomorrow.
We've
been
able
to
vaccinate
the
oldest
of
the
groups,
so
right
now
we're
about
50
I'll,
say
50,
those
who
are
50
years
of
age
and
we're
going
to
be
vaccinated.
B
A
All
right
and
again
because
you
have
limited
supplies,
it's
a
relatively
small,
a
portion,
a
apportionment
of
the
doses
that
you
get
that
you
set
aside
for
educators,
which
include
early
childhood
teachers
and
you're
looking
at
those
that
are
only
right
now
in
in
the
classroom
and
you're,
starting
with
the
oldest
in
going
and
going
down.
Okay.
C
The
short
answer
is
yes:
okay,
because
they
are
events
in
residence,
so
they
will.
They
do
qualify
to
get
a
vaccine.
A
And
I
know
like
there
are
a
lot
of
questions
not
only
from
teachers
but
from
parents
about.
Is
there
a
timeline
when
teachers
will
be
vaccinated?
I
mean
there
was.
You
know.
People
are
pretty
excited
about
the
news
yesterday,
where
president
biden
said
that
you
know
they're
looking
to
get
all
teachers
vaccinated
by
the
end
of
the
month.
I
believe
by
the
end
of
march
people
have
emailed
you,
I
know
and
they've
emailed
me,
and
you
know
my
response
to
people
has
been
totally
supportive
of
this
objective
and
this
goal.
A
I
haven't
seen
sort
of
the
implementation
plan
for
how
that's
possible,
because
again,
if
the
state,
if
we
could
get
our
hands
on
additional
vaccines,
then
we
can
help.
You
know
achieve
that
goal.
But
right
now
again
the
the
quantities
that
we're
receiving
here
are
are
pretty
you
know,
are
not
significant
enough.
C
Right,
absolutely,
I
think
you
hit
the
nail
right
on
its
head
maya.
If
we
get
thousands
of
vaccines.
Of
course
the
teachers
are
going
to
be
vaccinated,
but
because
we're
receiving
limited
vaccines
we
have
to
approach
it
based
on
from
an
exposure
standpoint,
those
who
are
reporting
to
work
in
person
to
get
those
individuals
vaccinated.
C
First,
then
we
can
start
vaccinating,
of
course,
those
who
are
working
from
home
or
working
remotely,
but
we
are
being
optimistic
as
I
continue
to
mention
that
vaccines
will
increase,
hopefully
over
over
the
course
of
maybe
april
late
march
or
so,
and
that's
us
being
optimistic
and
individuals
who
are
interested
in
the
vaccine
will
definitely
be
vaccinated.
But
we
are
prioritizing
those
who,
based
on
an
exposure
index
or
or
more
prone
to
coverage
infections
and
will
continue
to
move
down
the
line.
A
I
do
you
know
if
somebody
gets
a
vaccination
they're
in
phase
1b
and
they
get
a
vaccination
at
a
pharmacy.
Are
the
pharmacies
prioritizing
like
no
we're
only
doing
you
know
we're
working
with
the
oldest
folks,
who
would
be
more
susceptible
to
severe
complications
or
are
they
saying
hey?
We
just
want
proof
that
you're
in
1v.
So
if
you're,
a
teacher
you're
a
plumber,
you
work
at
a
grocery
store.
They'll,
give
you
the
shot.
If
you
can
get
a
appointment.
C
C
I
honestly
think
that
that's
the
the
way
the
way
to
go
given
that
our
65
year
old
and
older,
they
are
most
vulnerable
to
took
over
19
to
get
those
individuals
vaccinated
first
before
moving
down
down
the
line
and
as
we
continue
to
renegarate,
that's
how
we
fashioned
our
vaccination
effort
to
vaccinate
those
who
are
lotus
and
move
down
the
line.
But
the
pharmacies
from
my
understanding
is
if
you're,
65
and
older,
I
don't
think
there
really
is
a
pronunciation
to
get
those
who
are
the
oldest
first.
C
A
I've
got
some
questions
here
on
1c
and
I
feel
like
we're
far
we're
far
from
one
c,
so
I
just
for
me
to
recap:
one
c
no
longer
exists.
All
right,
so
folks
understand
that
the
state
is
redoing
sort
of
its.
You
know
approach
prioritization
they've
eliminated
one
c.
There
will
be
a
a
you
know.
C
There'll
be
some
recommendations
in
in
the
in
the
near
future.
What
1c
is
comprised
of,
but
for
right
now,
it's
currently
in
draft
what
we
have
is
1b
part
2.
A
Okay,
so
I'm
going
to
revisit,
we
had
several
questions
about
1c
we're
going
to
revisit
that
at
the
next
coronavirus
q,
a
when,
hopefully,
the
state
has
come
out
and
we
have
more
information
on
sort
of
phase
2
and
who's
in
who's
in
that
group
and
we'll
share
share
that
information.
I
want
to
go
now
to
city
vaccination
events
and
registration.
A
What
is
the
city's
protocol
for
distributing
vaccines
left
over
due
to
no
shows?
How
does
that
work.
B
All
right
so
yeah
so
at
our
at
our
pods
towards
the
end
of
the
day,
once
our
last
appointment
is
wrapping
up,
usually
three
or
so
hours
before
we
start
meticulously
opening
vials
only
as
needed
in
order-
and
this
is
in
order
to
ensure
that
we
are
left
at
the
end
of
the
day
with
the
least
amount
of
doses
possible.
B
B
So
it's
that
that's
basically
our
priority
is
to
focus
the
extra
doses
on
individuals
who
would
qualify
for
that
day's
pot
event,
but
throughout
our
pods
from
the
beginning
to
the
one
tomorrow,
the
one
a
few
days
ago,
we've
gotten
a
lot
better
at
making
sure
that
we
do
not
have
leftover
doses
at
the
end
of
the
day.
That's
where
it's
a
we've,
gotten
just
very
thorough
in
how
we're
handling
those
leftovers.
A
C
If
they
missed
that
email,
they
can,
let
us
know
by
emailing
vaccines
of
evidence
or
then
we
can
register
that
individual
for
the
next
time.
We'll
have
an.
A
Thank
you
mike
so
vaccines
at
city
of
evanston.org
is
manned
by
a
group
within
that
public
health
department
they've
really
been
a
huge
help
because
we've
been
alderman
city
manager,
others
have
been
getting
lots
of
emails.
We
just
forward
them
on
to
vaccines
at
city
of
evanston.
B
And
then,
if
I
could
say
something
really
quick
about
the
second
doses,
I've
noticed
there's
a
lot
of
anxiety
about
the
second
dose
and
just
wanted
to
make
it
clear
that
if
you
receive
a
first
dose
from
us,
you're
guaranteed
to
get
a
second
dose
and
when
we
send
the
registration
link,
we
only
send
it
out
to
the
individuals
who
were
at
the
first
pod,
getting
their
first
dose.
B
So
it's
not
something
where
we're
sending
a
thousand
number
of
people
who
needed
that
second
dose,
so
there's
no
sort
of
sense
of
urgency
or
rush
to
stay
on
your
email
or
anything
like
that
you
will.
You
will
be
contacted
at
the
off
chance
that
you
aren't
reach
out
to
311
or
vaccine
that
city
of
evanston.org.
A
Thank
you
greg
emma
asked
ike.
Maybe
you
could
explain
your
thought
process
because
I
know
you
have
thought
a
lot
about
this.
She
said
you
know,
can
evanson
set
up
a
drive-through
vaccine
site
or
I
would
ask
you
know,
have
you
thought
about
that
and
if
you
decided
not
to,
can
you
just
explain
the
the
thought
process
for
our
residents.
C
So
we
thought
about
it.
We
didn't
think
that
it
would
be
feasible
at
this
time
of
the
year
because
of
the
weather,
but
it's
a
conversation
that
we
we've
had
amongst
ourselves.
The
planning
team
to
have
a
vaccination
part
the
same
way.
C
We
set
up
copic
testing
and
fluid
vaccinations
outdoors,
and
so
we
think
there
is
a
possibility
of
having
that
when
the
weather
improves
so
we'll
continue
to
to
work
on
that
process
and,
of
course,
that
information
will
be
disseminated
to
the
public
on
how
those
vaccines
part
will
will
be
will
be
set
up,
but
it's
par.
It's
part
of
our
longer
ongoing
conversations
regarding
outdoor
vaccination,
science.
A
I
know
more
people
haven't
been
vaccinated
than
have
been
vaccinated,
but
for
those
that
have
been
vaccinated,
I
can't
tell
you
how
many
emails
the
city
has
received.
You
know
that
are
overwhelmingly.
You
know
effusively
supportive
of
the
process
that
the
city
has
set
up
at
the
community
center,
how
efficient
it
is,
and
the
good
customer
service
and
everything
else
so
well,
I
know
many
people
are
anxious
to
get
there
to
get
their
vaccines.
A
A
Let's
move
to
vaccine
and
health
questions
here
as
we
get
close
to
wrapping
up
if
the
vaccine
is
94
effective
and
again,
the
effective
rate
change
varies
for
some
of
these,
but
if
it's
94
effective
will
the
six
percent
of
individuals
for
whom
it
was
not
effective,
experience
less
severe
cases
if
they
contract
covet
19.
C
Mike
so
the
experts
are
learning,
as
we
continue
on
this
journey
of
vaccinations,
as
they
continue
to
analyze
the
effectiveness
and
the
efficacy
of
vaccines.
C
And,
of
course
it
is
information
that
will
be
relayed
to
us
after
we
they
conduct.
These
analysis
and
reviews
of
you
know
the
six
percent
that
this
individual
mentioned
and
even
the
95
percent
efficacy.
So
studies
are
on
the
way
to
fully
understand
what
it
means
in
in
preventing
covered
19
infections
and
the
efficacy.
And
what
have
you
and
how
long
that
the
immunity
from
these
vaccines
are
so
it's
something
that
has
been
studied
is
something
that
is
constantly
being
reviewed
and
we're
hopeful
that
this
information
will
be
relayed
to
us.
C
A
Thank
you
mike
greg
joe
joseph
and
karen
had
a
question:
is
it
safe
to
fly
after
receiving
both
vaccine
doses
and
if
not,
when
would
it
be
safe
to
travel.
B
So
the
recommendation
now
is,
after
we
get
vaccinated
to
still
wear
face
coverings.
Still
social
distance
still
watch
your
hand,
hygiene,
so
it
you
can
travel,
but
you
still
need
to
be
taking
those
safety
precautions
until
a
large
percentage
of
the
population
has
been
vaccinated.
B
I
have
a
feeling
that
we'll
be
wearing
face
coverings
and
social
distancing
for
a
little
while
longer,
even
after
we've
been
vaccinated,
just
to
ensure.
A
A
10
to
14
days
after
your
second
dose
is
when
you
should
have
the
full
immunity
it
and
again
all
the
public
health
protocols
still
apply
and
again
the
reason
for
that.
Isn't
that
if
you
get
it,
there's
a
heightened
risk
that
you're
going
to
have
like
some
severe
complication
because
you've
got
the
antibodies
you've
been
vaccinated.
A
What
they
don't
know
and
they're
studying
right
now
is
whether
you
could
still
somehow
transfer
the
virus,
even
though
you've
been
vaccinated,
and
so
that's
the
studies
that
are
going
on
right
now
and,
as
time
goes
on,
we'll
learn
more
about
that
and
that
will
impact.
You
know
the
the
protocols
that
we
have
around
masks.
A
Holly
had
a
question:
will
people
need
to
show
proof
of
being
vaccinated
in
order
to
enter
public
buildings
or
airplanes,
or
anything
like
that?.
C
Right
now
I
can
speak
to
public
buildings,
there's
no
policy
or
guideline
that
bars
a
person
from
entering
public
buildings.
You
also
have
to
understand.
Vaccines
are
strongly
encouraged,
but
they
are
not
mandated.
So
no
one
will
stop
you
from
entering
up
to
public
building.
If
you
are
wearing
your
mask
and
abiding
by
the
preventative
strategies
and
protocols,
no
one
will
will
stop
you,
but
that's
in
no
one's
policy
or
guideline
in
regards
to
entering
a
public
thing.
A
B
C
Well,
as
a
matter
of
fact,
they
are
inc
if
you
want
to
say
that,
as
a
matter
of
fact,
they
actually
included
in
phase
one
b
plus
one
b
part
two
to
receive
the
vaccine,
because
the
benefits
according
to
experts
outweigh
the
risk.
But
if
someone
is
considering
getting
a
vaccine
while
pregnant
our
advice
will
be
for
that
individual
to
consult
with
their
healthcare
provider
so
that
that
individual
can
be
adequately
informed.
So
that's
that's
our
recommendation
about
people
who
are
pregnant,
but
they
are
included
in
1b
plus
to
get
the
vaccine.
A
A
Esther
had
a
question
and
we'll,
I
think,
we'll
wrap
up
with
this
and
then
I'll
make
a
few
comments.
At
the
end
she
says
I've
had
both
vaccine
doses.
When
can
I
begin
meeting
with
friends
who
have
also
received
the
vaccine?
A
C
Right
reviews
and
analysis
of
the
vaccine
is
still
they're
still
on
the
way.
We
are
obtaining
information
as
we
go
along
during
our
vaccination
efforts
and
periods,
and
this
goes
back
to,
I
believe,
one
of
the
questions
about
six
percent,
efficacy
and
95
efficacy.
C
So
in
situations
like
this,
because
studies
are
still
on
the
way,
experts
are
still
learning
about
the
efficacy
of
the
vaccine
and
what
has
been
encouraged
is
for
people
who
are
fully
vaccinated
to
continue
following
preventative
protocols
wearing
your
mask
when
you
are
within
six
feet
of
individuals,
a
social
distancing,
washing
your
hands,
avoiding
not
large
crowds.
C
So
this
is
probably
going
to
be
the
norm
until
this
pandemic
is
adequately
and
substantially
controlled.
So,
if
you're
fully
vaccinated,
there
is
no
guarantee
that
you
can't
still
pass
the
virus.
So
that's
why
it's
encouraged
for
people
to
continue
to
practice
those
public
health
measures
to
prevent
any
type
of
transmission.
All
right.
A
Ike
but
but
esther
could
probably
get
together
with
her
friends
who
have
also
been
vaccinated,
you're,
saying,
hey
still
practice
social
distancing
wear
a
mask
and
you
know
good
good.
You
know
hygiene
and
you
know
avoid
avoid
esther
avoid
going
to
meet
with
you
know
a
dozen
people
or
something
like
that,
but
she
can
okay.
Okay,
because
I
know
there
are
lots
of
grandparents
that
are
being
that
are
being
vaccinated
as
well,
and
you
know,
yearn
to
see
their
grandkids
and
others
and
children
who
they
haven't.
A
Seen
for
a
long
long
time
I
want
to.
I
want
to
thank
both
of
you:
ike
ogbo,
our
public
health
director,
greg
olsen,
our
operations
chief
and
deputy
public
health
director
for
spending
a
little
over
an
hour
with
us
today.
Answering
many
many
questions
that
I
have
that
our
residents
have
about
the
about
vaccinations
in
partic.
In
particular,
we
will
continue
to
keep
our
community
informed
with
the
latest
information
that
we
that
we
have,
and
I
want
to
end
by
encouraging
everyone.
A
That
is
open
to
anyone
if,
as
long
as
you're
eligible
in
the
phase
1b
group
to
try
to
get
in
with
the
pharmacies
that
have
it
as
well,
and
to
continue
to
be
patient
and
sort
of
understand
that
this
is
a
massive
undertaking
by
every
level
of
government,
from
our
federal
government
to
our
state
government
to
our
county
into
into
our
city,
and
we
will
continue
to
try
and
get
better
at
this
and
and
more
coordinated
and
also,
you
know,
be
patient
with
our
hospitals.
A
We
have
a
great
health
care
system
here
in
evanston
and
on
the
north
shore,
and
I
can
tell
you
the
frustration
I
expressed
today
or
I
did
just
wishing
that
we
had
more
quantities
of
vaccine,
our
hospitals
and
our
health
care
providers
feel
the
same
way,
and
I
know
many
people
have
registered
through
those
systems
and
they're
saying
hey.
Why
hasn't
north
shore
called
me
back,
and
you
know
scheduled
my
appointment
and
again
they
are
struggling
with
vaccines.
A
We
are
working
together
and
working
with
the
presidents
of
the
hospitals
to
to
sort
of
make
our
case,
and
I
feel
strongly
about
direct
allocations
to
our
health
care
institutions
as
well.
So
we
are
all
in
this
together.
I
appreciate
everybody's,
you
know
patience
and
adaptability
and
for
tuning
in
for
tuning
in,
we
will
hold
another
one
of
these
in
a
couple
weeks.
A
Lastly,
a
big
thank
you
to
patrick
degnan,
our
chief
information
officer,
who
helps
coordinate
this
and
also
sends
out
the
thursday
e-news
that
goes
out
to
tens
of
thousands
of
people.
If
you're
not
registered,
go
on
the
city
website
and
register
for
that,
we
always
have
an
update
on
vaccinations
and
the
cova
19
pandemic.
So
thank
you.
Thank
you.
Everyone
be
well
and
remember.
You
still
have
to
keep
wearing
our
masks
bye.
