A
A
Very
good,
thank
you.
I
understand
that
state
law
currently
requires
that
the
following
announcement
be
made
at
the
beginning
of
every
remote
public
hearing
as

Due
to
the
current
public
health
emergency
city
council
committees,
city,
currently
meeting
remotely,
we
are
using
microsoft
teams
to
make
these
remote
hearings
possible
instructions
for
how
the
public
may
view
and
offer
public
testimony
and
public
hearings
of
council
committees
are
included
in
the
public

A
I
now
know

C
A
Thank
you
and
I
think,
council
members
and
brooks
are
trying
to
get
on.
They
may
be
having
some
connectivity
issues.
I
know
that
councilman
heenan
is
just
reached
out
and
is
trying
to
connect
and
here's
encounter
and
here's
councilwoman
brooks.
I
think
she
was
having
some
difficulty
as
well.
So
let
us
proceed.
A
B
Amending
title,
17
of
the
philadelphia
code
entitled
contracts
and
procurement
by
amending
chapter
17-hundred
entitled
non-competitively
bid
contracts,
financial
assistance
to
provide
procedures
applicable
to
the
awarding
of
contracts
to
non-city
providers
of
vaccine
doses
for
copin,
19
and
related
variants.
All
under
certain
terms
and
conditions.
A
A
By
continuing
to
be
in
the
meeting,
you
are
consenting
to
being
recorded
additionally
prior
to
recognizing
members
for
the
questions
or
comments
they
have
for
the
witnesses.
I
will
note
for
the
record
at
this
time
that
we
will
use
the
chat
feature
available
in
microsoft
teams
to
allow
members
to
signify
that
they
must
that
they
wish
to
be
recognized
in
order
to
comply
with
the
sunshine
act.
The
chat
feature
must
only
be
used
for
this
purpose.
G
G
This
bill
would
put
certain
requirements
on
new
contracts
that
the
city
issues
for
providing
covet,
19
vaccination
services
and
require
reporting
of
data
to
the
council
regarding
covet-19
vaccination
by
providers
with
the
amendments
that
I
understand
are
being
proposed.
We
support
this
legislation,
we're
making
progress
in
offering
vaccine
against
covenant
19
to
philadelphia
residents.
Vaccines
are
being
administered
by
hospitals,
federally
qualified
health
centers,
a
growing
number
of
pharmacies,
both
chain
and
independent
health
department
managed
sites
and
the
black
doctors
covered
19
consortium.
G
Also,
arrangements
are
being
made
to
pair
employers
of
front-line
essential
workers
with
providers
to
vaccinate
their
workers,
such
as
the
children's
hospital
philadelphia,
vaccinating
teachers,
school
support
staff
and
child
care
workers
with
increased
doses
arriving
in
philadelphia.
At
this
point,
most
providers
currently
enrolled
in
vaccine
administration
are
receiving
as
many
doses
as
they
can
administer.
G
This
rp
was
released
last
week
and
as
of
yesterday
afternoon,
we
had
received
seven
proposals,
while
demand
for
vaccination
greatly
exceeds
the
supply.
People
who
meet
eligibility
criteria
will
be
directed
to
their
vaccination
opportunities
either
by
invitation
by
the
vaccine
providers
or
by
invitation
by
the
health
department
using
names
from
people
who
are
registered
on
our
vaccine
interest
database.
G
G
G
To
that
end,
the
legislation
lays
out
requirements
regarding
contracts,
the
city
editors
enters
into
for
covet
19
vaccination
services.
This
legislation
also
requires
that
our
department
submit
data
to
the
council
on
each
provider's
vaccine
administrations
broken
down
by
race,
ethnicity,
gender
and
age
range.
We
can
certainly
make
that
information
available
to
the
city
council
bi-weekly,
as
required
by
the
legislation.
A
Thank
you
very
much
for
your
testimony.
Testimony
I
didn't
have
any
questions,
but
I
did
want
to
go
over
summary
of
the
bill
just
for
the
sake
of
clarity,
so
that
folks,
viewing
would
have
an
idea
of
what
this
bill
will
actually
do.
The
bill
has
two
components
and
it
would
apply
to
the
following
contracts.
A
That
contract
would
also
be
covered
under
this
bill
for
these
contracts,
the
bill
would
require
the
following.
The
proposed
contract
must
specify
the
terms
and
conditions
under
which
the
vaccines
are
being
provided.
The
proposed
contract
must
stay
explicitly
that
it
is
subject
to
the
requirements
of
the
code
with
respect
to
economic
opportunity
plans.
A
The
contract
cannot
be
awarded
unless
the
city
has
one
specify
the
amount
and
type
of
experience
that
the
entity
administering
doses
must
demonstrate
to
be
eligible
for
the
contract.
Two
evaluated
an
applicant's
responsiveness
and
three
expressly
determine
in
writing
that
the
selected
applicant
has
the
necessary
experience.
A
Council
must
also
be
notified
of
any
such
contract
not
later
than
two
days
after
it
is
entered
into.
The
notice
must
describe
the
principal
terms
of
the
contract,
including
the
experience
of
the
entity
that
will
administer
the
vactine
vaccine
doses
and
the
demographic
information
that
the
entity
will
collect.
A
The
bill
was
as
interested
the
bill
as
introduced
tried
to
maintain
that
whenever
the
city
provides
vaccines
to
an
organization,
there
is
a
contract
between
the
city
and
that
organization.
The
law
department
advised,
however,
that
merely
because
the
city
is
providing
vaccines
to
an
organization,
a
contract
does
not
automatically
exist.
Rather,
it
is
up
to
the
executive
branch
to
decide
whether
to
enter
into
a
formal
contract
with
the
provider.
A
The
bill
has
been
amended
to
reflect
the
law
department's
conclusion.
Most
providers
of
vaccines
do
not
have
contracts
with
the
city
in
large
part
because
they
receive
no
payment
from
the
city.
Therefore,
this
portion
of
the
bill
will
only
apply
to
providers
that,
in
the
future,
enter
into
contracts
with
either
the
city
or
an
intermediary.
A
A
This
reporting
requirement
places
no
additional
burden
on
the
providers
of
vaccines
and
should
in
no
way
delay
the
administering
of
vaccines.
Here
is
why
the
cdc
already
requires
that
each
provider
of
vaccines
submit
this
demographic
information
to
the
relevant
public
health
authority
within
24
hours
of
administering
a
dose
of
the
covet
19
vaccine.
A
The
bill
requires
the
administration,
not
the,
not
the
providers,
to
compile
and
present
this
data
in
a
way
that
will
enable
the
public
to
know
who
the
providers
are,
how
many
doses
they
are
receiving
and
distributing
and
key
demographic
information
about
whom
they
are
serving.
This
information
responds
directly
to
the
desire
for
equity
and
the
distribution
of
covet
19
vaccines,
and
that
being
said,
I
just
want
to
check.
In
with
my
colleagues,
I
see.
Councilwoman
kim
has
a
question
councilwoman
kim.
D
Thank
you
very
much,
madam
chair,
and
thank
you
very
much,
commissioner
farley.
Could
you
just
speak
a
little
bit
since
you're
here
about
the
fema
site
that
was
announced
today,
and
that
is
to
be
some
sort
of
a
vaccination
clinic,
and
could
you
talk
a
little
bit
about
how
that
will
be
used
and
how
it
fits
some
of
the
how
you're
tracking
you
know
the
equity
issues
I
think
have
been
raised
through
this.
G
Bill
yeah,
thank
you,
so
we
have
been
in
discussions
with
fema
for
some
time
about
a
site
like
this.
The
federal
government
has
laid
out
different
types
of
mass
vaccination
sites
that
it
may
support
and
different
types
of
support
for
those
different
types.
This
is
what's
labeled
a
type
1
site
with
a
type
1
site
is
meant
to
vaccinate
6
000
people
per
day
and
the
personnel
that
do
that
run.
The
operation
are
predominantly
the
federal
employees
with
locality.
G
Providing
excuse
me
support
with
the
facility,
with
some
of
the
logistics
around
getting
the
vaccine
there
and
with
scheduling
of
appointments,
but
the
vaccine
that
is
actually
used
is
provided
by
the
federal
government.
So
we
are
very
enthusiastic
about
this
site.
We
work
with
the
fema
choosing
the
convention
center
for
the
site.
G
The
tentative
start
date
is
march
third
and
the
there's
much
yet
to
be
worked
out,
but
we
considered
a
very
a
great
adjunct
to
all
the
other
vaccination
services
we're
providing
the
city
that
will
continue
to
provide
so
a
lot
of
details
yet
to
be
worked
out.
But
as
far
as
one
piece
of
this
much
larger
approach,
it's
a
great
addition
to
the
city
and.
D
G
G
It's
a
little
unclear
now
that
the
first
time
we
asked
that
question.
They
said
that
this
was
really
a
city
resource,
but
with
it
being
federal
government
I
could
see
there
might
be
interests
of
people
in
the
suburbs
beyond
us.
So
I
would
say:
that's
not.
I
don't
have
a
definite
answer
on
that.
Yet.
D
D
One
of
the
questions
I
have
is
whether
you
are
tracking
zip
codes,
and
you
know.
Similarly,
one
of
the
reasons
why
I
asked
is
that
this
is
something
that
I
think,
like
today's
big
faxathon
at
the
leah
chorus
center
is
really
trying
to
focus
in
on
the
hardest
hit
zip
codes
in
in
philadelphia,
and
it
helps
to
ensure,
for
example,
that
we're
actually
covering
philadelphians.
I
know
one
of
the
concerns
we
had
around
philly
fighting
kovid
was
that
they
didn't
just
do
philadelphians.
D
G
Yeah,
so
we
have
done,
we
do
get
zip
codes
in
our
database
when
they
come
in
and
we've
done
an
analysis,
an
analysis
of
the
zip
codes
of
the
recipients
and,
as
you're,
probably
not
going
to
be
surprised
to
learn
that
the
excuse
me,
the
zip
codes
that
are
fewer
vaccinations,
tend
to
be
low
income,
minority
neighborhoods
and
so
we're.
First
of
all,
we
posted
that
map
on
the
website.
As
of
yesterday,
we
used
to
have
a
map
there
of
by
zip
code
of
provider.
D
And
is
that
information
that
you
can
send
over
in
your
weekly
distribution
to
council?
I
know
the
bill
does
not
cover
zip
codes.
It
just
covers
race,
age,
gender,
but
it
doesn't
cover
zip
codes.
But
if
you
have
that
information
is
that
something
that
you
could
commit
to
sending
over
to
council
in
a
weekly
way?
G
D
D
So
it
just
feels
very
attentive
for
us
to
pay
attention
about
the
represented
zip
codes
within
our
city.
So
as
long
as
you're
doing
that-
and
you
know-
I
don't
expect
to
be
overwhelmed,
but
we're
mostly
just
tracking
high-risk,
neighborhoods
and
communities.
So
if
we
could
just
be
able
to
be
in
communication
on
that
with
you,
I
think
that
would
be
helpful.
Yes,
okay,
I
I
think
those
are
my
questions
and
then
I
can.
I
could
ask
a
few
more
if
I
have
any
others
that
come
up.
Thank
you.
A
I
D
I
J
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
dr
farley,
and
I
want
to
recognize
by
the
speed
by
the
last
couple
weeks
that
stuff
is
getting
out
and
information,
and
I
I
realize
it's
hard
to
say
we
can
put
one
master
list
together,
but
can
you
speak
to
me
about
how
are
we
communicating
with
folks
particularly
language
minority
folks
about
the
fact
that
we
have
them
on
the
list
and
that
they
will
be
called
we're
getting
a
lot
of
calls
around?
You
know,
and
I
I've
said
this
a
couple
times.
J
G
Yeah,
so
we
have
people
in
our
database
and
then,
as
these
opportunities
arise
and
they're
different
sorts
of
opportunities,
we
direct
people
to
them.
So,
for
example,
everybody
in
the
database
over
the
age
of
75
within
the
last
week
was
invited
to
set
an
appointment
at
a
pharmacy,
and
that
was
29
000
people.
G
G
J
Okay,
so
is
there
a
way
again?
Not
everybody
has
email
robocalls.
My
mother
got
a
robocall
and
she
said
somebody
robocalled
me
and
of
course
I
didn't
know
what
it
said.
Is
there
any
way
we
can,
because
this
is
gonna
take
a
while
and
the
transition
between
the
volume
between
1b
and
1c
is
going
to
be
so
drastic?
Is
there
any
way
that
we
can
set
out
a
postcard?
J
This
is
the
number
you
call
in
english
or
spanish.
I
know
you
guys
were
talking
about
setting
up
hotline
numbers
again
just
trying
to
people.
No,
some
people
have
not
been
communicated
at
all
as
you're
trying
to
do
this
is
spreading
out
and
so
or
are
you
just
suggesting
people
call
throat
311
and
find
out
where
they
fall.
G
Unless
I
checked,
I
think
about
95
of
the
people
in
our
database,
including
a
very
high
percentage
of
the
elderly,
people
did
have
an
email
address,
and
so
we
are
we're.
Definitely
getting
phone
calls
in
we'll
see
what
kind
of
like
personal
calls
we
can
do
and
as
far
as
language
access,
I
can
say
this.
We
it
should
be
in
the
next
day
or
so.
G
If
it's
not
already
there,
our
vaccine
interest
database
will
be
in
different
languages
on
the
website
five
languages,
but
we
then,
as
let
me
say,
as
we
direct
people
to
vaccination
sites,
we're
also
looking
at
and
building
partnerships
where,
in
some
cases,
other
call
centers
may
be
calling
people.
So,
for
example,
the
einstein
is
doing
a
mass
clinic
at
enon
church.
We
gave
them
a
certain
number
of
people
who
met
eligibility
criteria.
Their
call
center
is
actually
going
to
call
them
and
schedule
the
appointments.
J
As
it
relates
to
this
particular
bill
around
the
transparency,
how
long
before
you
feel
you're
gonna
have
a
kind
of
a
public
dashboard
that
really
allows
people
to
see
the
distributions
by
zip
code.
I
know
right
now
we're
just
playing
catch
up.
20
african-american.
I
know
that
from
eight
percent.
That's
that's
a
lot.
How
do
we
ensure
proportionately
moving
forward
that
we're
gonna
play
catch-up
right?
G
All
right,
so
we
have
a
dashboard
on
the
website
right
now
it
does
have
you
see
those
numbers
and,
as
of
yesterday
now
we
have
the
zip
code
map
that
will
continue
to
be
updated.
In
addition,
the
bill
requires
much
more
detailed
data
by
the
provider
level.
We
think
we
can
get
that
to
council
next
week.
It's
a
lot
of
information.
G
I
don't
know
that
we
can
put
that
in
a
website
in
a
way
that
would
be
interpretable
by
people,
so
it
may
take
us
longer
to
figure
out
how
to
put
that
kind
of
thing
on
the
website
in
a
way
that
people
aren't
just
overwhelmed
by
it.
As
far
as
the
targets
go,
I
mean,
certainly
I'm
hopeful
that
we
are.
We
have
offered
vaccine
to
everyone
in
the
city
who
wants
it
by
end
of
july.
G
That's
what
you
know
the
the
president
said
we
should
have
enough
doses
of
vaccine
for
every
american
by
the
end
of
july.
I
hope
we
can
deliver
it
by
then
so
by
then.
I
hope
that
we've
absolutely
achieved
racial
equity
so
that
every
group,
as
I
would
love
to
have
100
of
people
in
in
the
city
of
every
race
vaccinated,
if
say
70,
of
people
want
vaccine,
at
least
that
we
have
a
racial
equity
in
that
70
percent.
G
It's
going
to
take
us
a
while
to
get
from
here
to
there
so
for
20.
Now
I
haven't
laid
out
an
intermediate
target,
but
I
would
you
know:
african-americans
are
about
40
to
45
percent
of
the
city.
We
want
to
be
rising
from
that
20
percent
towards
that
45.
In
the
you
know
the
next,
whatever
it
is
to
three
months.
J
B
J
We're
only
giving
out
40
when
we
know
we
got
to
give
out
60
percent
to
get
to
that.
So
I
think
that's
important.
Thank
you,
madam
chair.
Thank
you
and
again
I'm
seeing
the
progress.
We
want
to
be
helpful
in
council
in
terms
of
messaging,
so
any
additional
messaging
robocalling
that
you
think
our
offices
could
do
to
add
to
that.
We
we
really
want
to
be
part
of
that.
Thank
you.
G
Thank
you
if
I
could
add
so
we
have.
There
are
some
providers
that
really
do
an
excellent
job
of
reaching
diverse
people
for
vaccination.
There's
other
providers
that
can
do
a
very
high
volume
and
we're
sort
of
working
with
both
and
trying
to
figure
out
how
to
balance
this
out.
You
know
we,
we,
the
federal
qualified
health
centers,
are
doing
a
fabulous
job
of
reaching
people
who
are
the
most
important
to
us,
they're,
not
doing
very
high
volume
right
now
there
it's
a
different
sort
of
model.
J
G
Yeah,
so
that
there's
a
fair
enough
pharmacies
37
that
have
begun
the
process
to
enroll
as
providers
they
have
to
go
through
multiple
steps.
There
we
have
under
the
exact
number
like
seven
or
eight
that
are
enrolled.
I
almost
I
think
only
one
of
them
has
received
vaccine.
Others
were
supposed
to
be
receiving
vaccine
this
week
because
the
snow
probably
won't
be
until
next
week,
so
we're
working
hard
to
help
the
other
ones
get
enrolled.
They
will
help.
I
do
think
the
independent
pharmacies
will
tend
to
reach
a
more
diverse
demographic.
A
K
Since
we
started
receiving
vaccines,
we
have
no
parking
plan
to
my
knowledge
as
scepter
shared
with
us,
a
public
transportation
plan
city
council
members
have
seen
no
allocation
plan
at
a
site
designated
to
distribute
six
thousand
vaccinations
per
day,
and
in
the
absence
of
and
these
details
you
know
surrounding
the
announcement
today,
I'm
just
calling
on
the
mayor
the
administration
to
do
what
we've
been
asking
them
to
do
share
with
us.
The
plan
show
us.
K
The
plan
show
philadelphia
how
this
is
going
to
work
and
why
it
makes
more
sense
for
the
city
to
be
at
the
convention
center
in
lincoln
financial
field,
especially
since
city
council
just
passed
a
resolution
yesterday,
16
to
1
by
committee,
lincoln
financial
field
and
other
sites.
So
if
you
could
share
with
us
the
plans
for
septa
the
parking
plans
and
some
of
the
other
questions,
I've
asked.
G
Thank
you
councilmember.
Let
me
just
say
the
I
have
said
before
repeatedly
that
I
think,
given
the
weather,
given
the
location
that
the
being
outdoors,
the
the
link
is
not
the
place
to
be
the
best
place
to
be
right
now
for
a
mass
site.
I
think
that
an
indoor
location,
the
convention
center
is
a
better
choice
and
there
there's
plans
to
be
worked
out
and
many
city,
other
city
agencies
involved
and
others
may
be
able
to
speak
for
those
other
city
agencies.
H
Good
afternoon
good
afternoon,
folks,
tumor
alexander,
managing
director
council
member
those
plans
are
all
being
discussed
right
now,
with
fema
with
the
fema
team,
with
our
emergency
management
office,
we're
looking
at
a
plan
to
provide
discounted
or
somewhat
free
parking
in
the
surrounding
parking
lots.
That's
surrounding
the
convention.
Center
fema
staff
has
been
on
the
ground
for
the
last
week
and
a
half,
if
not
longer,
working
with
the
operations
teams,
not
only
from
the
city
but
also
from
that
facility
and
we've
accepted,
is
also
a
part
of
that
conversation.
H
Certainly,
we
think
this
location
is
more
accessible
to
folks
via
various
various
methods
of
transportation,
including
several
public
transit,
public
transit
options.
Also,
we
think
it.
You
know
we
we,
we
think
it's
a
good
site.
Fema
thought
it
was
a
good
site
and
we're
working
on
a
plan.
It's
making
sure
we
surround
that
site
as
it
relates
to
the
vaccine.
I
think
you
heard
dr
farley
talk
a
little
bit
earlier
about
this
particular
site
will
come
with
vaccine
provided
by
the
federal
government.
H
K
H
I
can
tell
you
I
don't
know
in
particular
where
stadiums
are
situated
in
other
parts
of
the
city.
I
know
where
the
stadium
is
situated
in
this
part
of
the
city.
Yes,
it
is
accessible
by
the
broad
street
line.
Yes,
a
person
you
know
may
have
to
walk
at
least
five
or
six
blocks
the
equivalent
of
five
or
six
blocks.
To
get
to
that
off
of
that
line,
we
wanted
a
place
that
was
accessible
via
car.
We
wanted
a
place
that
was
accessible
via
foot.
H
We
wanted
a
place
that
was
accessible
via
public
transit
in
a
convenient
way.
I
know
you
mentioned
that
we've
only
been
able
to
get
the
output
of
500
or
so
and
sometimes
more
dosages
at
the
convention
center.
I
think
that
was
a
direct
correlation
of
the
staffing
and
of
the
amount
of
vaccine
we
had
with
this
with
coming
along
with
fema
staffing
and
fema
support.
We
think
we
could
do
this.
H
We
think
we
could
work
with
them
and
be
able
to
get
this
6
000
input
a
day
and
we
think
it's
an
excellent
site,
we're
also
working
with
them
and
talking
to
them.
If
there's
a
potential
to
put
other
sites,
other
type
sites,
fema
supported
type
sites
in
and
around
the
city,
and
certainly
they
wanna
use
this
model
to
do
this
around
the
region
as
well.
K
H
That's
something
we're
continuing
to
work
on.
I
think
this
site
will
likely
I'm
not
sure
what
the
federal
government
said
any
announcement
today,
but
we're
we're
thinking
that
it's
going
to
stand
up
at
some
point
at
the
beginning
of
march,
so
we're
working
on
all
of
the
details.
Like
I
said,
the
fema
team
is
already
on
on
the
grail
in
philadelphia,
has
been
working
with
our
team
and
has
been
in
that
facility,
along
with
a
bunch
of
other
partners
working
through
the
operational
plan.
G
I
think
dr
stanford
is
doing
an
excellent
job.
I
think
we
need
a
diversity
of
providers,
all
sorts
of
providers
in
different
settings,
different
parts
of
the
city
reaching
different
demographics
to
get
everybody
vaccinated.
So
I
think
dr
stanford
is
doing
exactly
what
she
should
do,
but
we
need
additional
sites.
On
top
of
that,.
K
G
We
are,
we
have
other
sites
for
mass
clinics
that
the
health
department
is
running,
which
we've
announced.
So
we
have.
You
know
one
in
north
philly,
west
philly
and
then
the
I
guess,
sort
of
the
very
near
northeast
and
we
are
looking
at
other
sites.
They
could
be
used
by
us
or
by
partners
or
by
additional
things
that
might
be
in
partnership
with
the
federal
government.
K
G
Yes,
now
it's
going
to
involve,
you
know
much
to
be
worked
out,
but
the
the
process
similar
to
what
we're
doing
right
now,
people
who
are
in
our
vaccine
interest
database
will
be
invited
to
schedule.
Appointments,
so
they'll
need
to
take
a
step
themselves
to
schedule,
appointment
and
and
then
they
get
the
appointment
and
then
they
come
in
and
get
vaccinated
there
and
we
can
over
sample
the
under
vaccinated
zip
codes
and
who
gets
invited.
K
K
C
C
Thank
you
chairwoman.
I
just
wanted
to
mention
briefly
in
a
number
of
those
cities
that
you
mentioned
new
york
in
phoenix
they're,
also
using
convention
centers
in
addition
to
their
stadiums.
So
as
as
we've
discussed,
we
haven't
foreclosed
the
opportunity
to
use
stadium
sites
in
the
future
or
large
outdoor
sites
in
the
future,
but
a
number
of
those
jurisdictions
are
using
their
large
convention
centers
at
the
same
time
that
they're
using
outdoor
sites,
so
so
we're
open
to
it.
K
C
And
I
think
we
also
want
to
make
sure
that
there's
equity
in
the
accessibility
of
the
site
as
well
right
if
someone
doesn't
have
access
to
a
car
to
be
able
to
drive
to
the
stadium
complex,
but
they
can
they
can
easily
get
to
the
convention
center.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
that's
a
priority,
so
there's
a
whole
bunch
of
competing
interests
here,
and
we
look
forward
to
continuing
to
work
with
you
and
your
colleagues
as
we
build
out
this
vaccination
program,
keep
in
mind.
K
H
C
Sure
and
those
stadiums
are
located
in
different
parts
of
the
cities,
so
I
don't
want
to.
I
don't
want
to
belabor
the
conversation,
but
you
know
we
look
forward
to
continuing
to
work
with
you
in
the
same
way
that
we're
working
with
septa
and
our
other
transportation
partners
as
we
stand
up
this
large
site.
Okay.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much,
madam
chair.
A
Thank
you
and,
and
so
jim.
What
I'm
hearing
is
that
you're
saying
that
you
all
have
not
closed
the
door
on
the
link
idea
that
that's
something
that
you
that
still
may
be
a
possibility,
along
with
the
convention
center
and
along
with
sites
in
the
neighborhood,
is
that
in
the
district
council
districts
is.
C
E
C
A
multitude
of
avenues
and
providers
to
be
able
to
deliver
vaccine
a
lot
of
this
is
about
priority
and
sequence,
as
we
have
amount
of
vaccines
to
deliver,
as
we
have
staff
to
deliver
the
vaccine
as
we
deal
with
the
weather
and
the
other
impacts
of
our
region
as
it
comes
to
delivering
vaccines.
So
all
of
that
has
to
be
sequenced.
We
had
a
major
step
today
in
the
announcement
of
this
type,
1
fema
site
at
the
convention
center.
C
We
expect
we're
going
to
have
more
discussions
with
fema
about
other
potential
federally
supported
sites
in
the
city,
as
well
as
other
sites
that
providers
that
we
work
with
now
or
we'll
work
with
in
the
future
will
want
to
open
that
could
potentially
be
you
know,
outdoor
large
sites,
so
this
is
going
to
be.
This
is
going
to
be
a
continued
process
over
several
months,
and
we
want
to
work
with
all
of
you
to
to
make
it
the
best
program.
It
can
be.
A
A
Not
speaking,
one
specific,
no,
no,
I'm
not
speaking
to
one
specific
site,
I'm
just
saying
that
you
are
open
to
considering
that
site.
Along
with,
as
a
district
council
person,
I
I
would
like
to
see
a
site
in
my
district
as
all
district
council
people
would
like
to
see.
So
we
we
like
the
idea
of
the
link.
We
like
the
idea
in
conjunction
with
the
con,
the
convention
center.
We
like
the
idea,
mostly
in
conjunction
with
sites
in
the
neighborhood
for
folks
who
don't
generally
a
lot
of
people,
don't
leave
the
neighborhood.
A
L
Thank
you,
madam
chair,
thank
you,
colleagues
and
administration
for
talking
about
this
publicly.
So
I
have
a
couple
questions
and
you
know
first,
I
want
to
note
and
as
everybody
know,
I
can
be
a
little
aggressive
and
and
fighting
for
for
northeast
philly
vaccination
sites
when
the
the
vaccine
is
available.
L
I
understand
it's
all
about
the
supply,
but
in
in
preparing
for
special
fema
type
of
sites
like
the
announcement
today
is
extremely
encouraging
and
I
know
you've
been
working
on
it
for
for
some
time,
because
during
the
process
over
the
past
several
weeks
and
every
time
I
called
about
like
when
when
are
we
going
to
have
you
know
the
doses
available?
When
are
we
going
to
have
the
vaccines
available
to
northeast
philadelphia
and
other?
You
know
other
parts
of
the
city
in
more
of
a
volume
where
you
you
know
it's
always
been.
L
It
was
mentioned
today
at
the
question
on
the
fema
sites,
and
I
guess
that's
you
know,
subject
to
to
the
feds
and
and
their
ability
to
provide
product.
It's
6
000
a
day.
How
will
it
currently
at
the
convention
center?
How
many
days
do
you
anticipate
this
being?
Is
it
a
you,
anticipate
this
being
to
herd
immunity
or
is
it
subject
to
availability?
So
how
long
will
they
be
supplying
6
000
a
day
as
a
famous
elected
site.
L
Listen,
you
can
get
a
name
anatomy
for
that
and,
if
the,
if
emmett
decides
to
have
other
sites,
you
know
in
you
know,
even
if
it's
at
a
lesser
or
more
type
of
volume
throughout
the
city,
would
you
anticipate
them
also
supplying
the
the
vaccine
as
well?
Is
this
a
snapshot
of
you
know
how
fema
sites
are
working.
G
The
basic
model
appears
to
be
that
a
type
one
site
from
the
federal
government
comes
with
its
own
vaccine,
but
the
type
two
sites
or
smaller
sites
the
localities
provide
the
vaccine.
So
I
think
that
there
may
still
be
a
role
for
type
two
or
other
sites
with
some
level
of
federal
support,
because
we
also
need
personnel
and
we
need
other
forms
of
federal
support
and
because
the
number
doses
that
we
are
receiving
has
been
increasing,
I
anticipate
it
will
continue
to
increase.
G
L
All
right
and-
and
I
think
you
know
this
is
certainly
extremely
positive
type
of
of
start
and
getting
to
hurt
immunity.
While
we
still
try
to
identify
other
sites
that
will
be
a
little
bit
more
predictable,
especially
with
you
know,
getting
31
000
doses
locally,
separate
from
fema.
You
know
that
being
said.
If
we
are
on
this
path
in
this
model,
as
as
you
discuss,
or
as
you
mentioned,
you
know-
maybe
a
vaccine
being
widely
available.
L
According
to
president
biden,
you
know
by
july,
when
do
you
think
we
would
or
we
can
anticipate
reaching
that
hurt
immunity
goal?
Knowing
that
you
know
over
30
percent
of
even
1a
healthcare
workers,
frontline
workers
still
don't
feel
comfortable
for
whatever
reason
you
know
getting
the
shot
in
the
arm
for
for
a
vaccine.
G
Yeah,
so
you
know,
national
surveys
show
that
about
65
percent
of
people
say
they
want
to
get
the
vaccine.
That
number
may
be
rising
a
little
bit
as
people
see
other
people
getting
vaccinated
and
doing
fine.
So
I
don't
think
we'll
ever
vaccinate
100
of
adults
in
the
city.
I
would
be
happy
if
we
got
above
70.
G
If
we
get
about
70
percent
that'll
make
a
big
difference.
It
will
not
eradicate
covet
from
the
city
or
from
the
nation
or
from
the
earth,
so
we
have
to
figure
out
how
to
live
with
this
infection,
and
and
vaccination
will
be
an
ongoing
thing
that
takes
place
for
you
know.
Probably
years
for
people
are
unvaccinated
or
we
may
be
updating
updating
the
vaccines.
So
you
know
people
talk
about
herd
immunities.
L
And-
and
I
don't
you
know
for
for
clarity-
I
don't
think
it's
a
I.
I
was
not
under
the
misunderstanding
that
it
was
a
yes
or
no
thing.
It
was
a
goal
that
we
tried
that
we're
trying
to
reach
in
in
a
methodical
and
planned
out
way.
So
we
can
reopen
our
economy
and
we
can
you
know
until
we
get
used
to
living
and
with
with
with
the
fire.
L
So
I
completely
understand
that,
so
you
know
moving
forward
as
as
always
you
know,
my
office
has
received
thousands
and
thousands
of
calls,
and
I'm
not
it's
not
an
over
exaggeration,
because
we
forward
everything
over
to
the
department
expression
of
interest.
So
as
as
we
continue
to
move
forward,
we
want
to
work
and
continue
to
work
with
the
health
department.
As
council
member
sanchez
had
said,
you
know,
disseminating
the
information
out
in
communication
on
education.
L
Educating
our
communities
in
you
know
in
the
city
at
large.
You
know,
I'm
gonna
speak
on
my
district
in
northeast
philly,
specifically
on
you
know
why
it's
important
and
why
it's
safe,
and
you
know
its
efficacy
to
to
reach
that
goal
of
herd
immunity.
So
you
know
please
continue
to
share
anything
you
can
with
with
with
with
my
office
and
other
council
members.
L
E
G
E
E
So
I
guess
the
question
as
you're
rolling
out
the
different
locations.
How
are
we
messaging-
and
I
wasn't
really
cognizant
until
this
morning's
call
the
impact
of
the
winter
storm
that
we've
had
in
the
southwest
and
how
that
may
impact
the
liberty
vaccines
to
the
city
of
philadelphia?
So
is
there
has
that?
E
Are
we
thinking
about
ways
of
messaging
that
information
to
constituents,
as
you
continue
to
roll
out
these
locations,
because
that
delay
will
impact
the
number
of
vaccines
we're
receiving
on
a
weekly
basis
and
as
people
are
going
different
locations
like
the
black
doctors
cover?
19
consortium
had
their
24
hour
vaccination
site
today?
E
That
will
cause
some
impact
and
we're
already
in
a
challenging
perspective,
in
reference
to
people
really
trying
to
get
the
vaccine
as
early
as
possible.
But
we
have
a
limited
window
and
I
know
I
talked
to
earlier
about
expanding
some
of
the
categories
under
1b,
but
how
I
was
trying
to
message
that
to
constituents
throughout
the
city
of
philadelphia
that
issues
like
the
winter
storm
in
the
southwest
is
going
to
impact
our
city
from
a
vaccine
perspective.
G
Yeah,
so
I'm
actually
hopeful
that
it
will
not
have
an
impact
on
the
individual
resident
of
philadelphia.
The.
What
it
means
is
that
shipments
that
were
scheduled
to
arrive
this
week,
maybe
wednesday
or
thursday
may
arrive
over
the
weekend
when
they
may
arrive
next
week,
so
that
a
provider
may
get
twice
as
much
next
week
as
he
would
have
ordinarily
gotten,
and
that
would
be
a
problem
if
they
were
had
essentially
zero
inventory.
G
But
most
of
our
providers
have
an
inventory,
so
they
can
continue
to
vaccinate
and
then
they'll
just
be
a
delay,
but
then
they'll
be
able
to
catch
up.
When
the
additional
doses
come
in
now
there
is.
It
has
caused
problems
for
some
of
the
new
pharmacies
that
have
come
on
board
and
they
were
supposed
to
just
get
their
first
shipment
this
week,
and
so
that
will
delay
when
they
will
start
vaccinating.
E
Okay,
and
also
I
know
at
the
state
level,
they've
had
some
issues
in
reference
to
number
of
vaccines
available
and
that's
not
impacting
us
in
city
if
it
offered
from
my
understanding,
because
we're
receiving
vaccines
directly
from
the
federal
government.
But
I'm
not
sure
if
people
are
cognizant
of
that
information.
So
I'm
not
sure
in
any
of
your
press
conferences.
Other
messaging
and
letting
people
know
that
those
issues
are
not.
G
Impacting
us
here
in
philadelphia,
I
think
that
question
may
have
come
up
at
the
press
conference
today,
but
yeah
we,
it
may
have
a
small
impact
on
us
if
there's
someone
in
the
counties
who
can't
get
a
second
dose
and
he's
requesting
to
come
into
the
city
to
get
a
second
dose,
but
we
are
monitoring
our
first
or
second
dose
pretty
well.
Excuse
me
and
we're
thinking,
we're
not
gonna
have
that
similar
problem
within
the
city.
E
E
How
will
their
possible
approval
impact
the
number
of
vaccines
we
have
here
in
the
city
of
philadelphia
and
because
I
believe
there
are
efficacy
where
one
dose
vaccination
will
be
different
than
pfizer
and
murder?
Are
we
doing
any
type
of
information,
because
I've
already
heard
from
some
people
that
don't
want
to
get
the
jj
vaccine
because
it
does
not
have
the
same
level
of
efficacy?
E
G
Yeah,
so
the
our
best
estimate
is
that
the
it
will
be
approved
and
we'll
start
to
get
the
first
doses
right
around
the
first
of
march.
So
that's
coming
up
pretty
soon,
but
the
initial
shipment
is
going
to
be
pretty
small
and
we
don't
know
about
subsequently,
but
I
hear
about
production
problems,
so
I'm
expecting
the
number
doses
we
will
get.
The
future
will
be
fairly
small,
so
we're
going
to
have
to
have.
G
I
think
some
in-depth
conversations
about
how
to
use
this
vaccine,
because
the
trade-off
is
exactly
what
you're
talking
about
it
has
a
com
ease
of
being
given
in
one
dose
rather
than
two.
But
if
you
look
at
just
that
measure
of
vaccine
efficacy,
it's
not
as
high
as
pfizer
moderna
now,
some
to
certain
extent
it's
apples
and
oranges
because
it
was
tested
in
a
different
population
at
a
different
time.
G
E
I'm
just
saying
trying
to
get
proactive
and
getting
ahead
of
the
curve
on
some
of
these
issues.
As
we're
thinking
about
this,
it
makes
sense
to
think
about
how
we
measure
this
message,
this
information,
because
I
I
can
see
that
being
a
challenge
within
citizens
in
the
city
of
philadelphia,
saying
they
don't
want
to
get
that
vaccine.
They
want
to
wait
for
other
vaccines
when
even
at
a
maybe
not
quite
level
of
efficacy,
as
the
others
is
still
going
to
protect
you
as
something
to
stop
coping
to
me.
E
It
reminds
me
of
getting
the
first
dose
of
a
modern
darn
advisor,
but
you
didn't
put
whatever
reason
to
get
your
second
dose.
It's
still
something
that
we
need
to
message
so
that
way
we
can
get
as
many
people
vaccinated
as
possible
with
all
the
tools
we
have
at
our
disposal,
especially
as
we
continue
to
ramp
up
and
we're
getting
to
a
point.
Hopefully,
in
late
april
early
may,
we'll
have
we'll
be
in
a
much
better
position
in
reference
to
vaccines
and
getting
people
to
get
vaccinated,
because
we
won't
have
the
same
level
shortage.
F
Thank
you,
madam
chair
and
good
afternoon.
Everybody
thank
you
for
taking
the
time
to
be
here
today.
I
just
want
to
echo
the
sentiments
of
my
colleagues
as
it
relates
to
the
concerns
and
the
distribution
of
the
vaccine.
I
have
a
number
of
elderly
people
in
my
family
who
signed
up
for
the
vaccine
and
haven't
heard
anything
back.
I'm
also
concerned
about
the
communication
and
constituents
simply
because
you
know
I
don't
the
the
phone
calls.
I
don't
know.
F
F
So
I
I
just
you
know
this
is
I
I
hear
that
we're
making
some
progress,
but
you
know
I
just
I
don't
know
I.
I
think
we
have
to
have
more
of
a
sense
of
urgency.
I'm
not
trying
to
judge
anyone
at
all,
but
I'm
looking
at
it
through
the
lens
of
the
average
everyday
citizen
who
again
has
signed
up
for
some
time
and
can't
even
get
an
answer
from
their
elected
officials
as
to
what
they
should
be
doing
or
what
steps
they
should
be
taking.
F
G
I
I'm
very
sympathetic:
lots
of
people
in
the
city
right
now
want
to
get
the
vaccine
and
can't
get
it.
So
it's
not
just
your
relatives,
many
many
people
and
I
wish
we
could
get
it
to
everybody
right
now.
You
know
we
haven't
limited
by
doses.
Now
we're
limited
more
by
just
how
many
providers
we
can
have
out
there
administering
those
doses
per
day.
We
are
going
to
get
to
people
it's
going
to
take
a
little
time.
We
have
said
from
the
beginning.
G
This
is
going
to
take
months,
but
with
the
excitement
of
people
seeing
other
people
getting
vaccinated,
everybody
feels
a
little
cheated,
and
so
I
I
understand
it's
tough
on
you
with
all
your
constituents
contacting
you
and
all
the
council
members,
but
we
will
get
to
people.
We
are
doing
this
as
as
quickly
as
possible
and
as
trying
to
be
systematic
about
it
to
meet
our
goals,
so
we're
doing
the
people
who
who
can
save
the
most
lives
and
do
with
racial
equity
in
the
process.
F
But
I
I
think
I
mean
look.
I
I
think
that
the
problem
for
our
end
is,
is
that
we
can't
comfortably
communicate
that
to
people,
because
you
know
what
those
things
are
that
you're
doing,
and
unfortunately
we
just
don't
know
so.
I
even
council,
member
bass,
trying
to
you,
know
get
someone
on
the
record
to
say
whether
or
not
the
stadium
is
still
our
option
like
that
question
never
got
answered
so
we're
having
these
hearings
we're
having
conversation,
but
often
what
ends
up
happening
is.
F
Is
we
don't
have
tangible
answers
and
information
to
take
back
to
constituents
into
different
people?
When
they
ask
us
questions,
it
could
be
a
family
member?
It
could
be
a
stranger.
You
know
this
is
the
cure.
This
is
the
thing
that
will
make
people's
anxiety
level
drop
significantly
as
it
relates
to
individual
battles
with
this
coronavirus
crisis.
So
I
know
you
understand
the
sense
of
urgency.
I'm
not
trying
to
say
you
don't.
F
I
just
have
to
say
that,
on
behalf
of
the
constituents
and
echo
the
sentiments
of
my
colleagues
there,
because
it's
a
huge
problem,
another
issue
around
this
idea
of
public
perception
why
we
have
a
good
amount
of
people
who
who
do
want
access
to
the
vaccine.
We
also
have
a
significant
amount
of
constituents
who,
similar
to
what
was
just
discussed
before,
are
hesitant
because
they're
hearing
different
variations
of
the
vaccine.
They
don't
know
which
one
they'll
get.
Maybe
they
don't
trust
it
at
all.
G
We're
also
working
on
a
mass
media
campaign,
we'll
be
getting
messages
out
about
the
safety
of
the
vaccine,
and
then
there
was
also
our
delivery
and
that
that
is
not
launched
yet
in
in
large
part,
because
we
know
many
people
can't
get
the
vaccine,
and
so
we
didn't
feel
it
was
right
to
say
better
get
your
vaccine
and
then
just
frustrate
people
when
they
can't
get
it.
But
that
should
be
launching
it's
sometime
in
march.
G
I
forget
exactly
when
I
hope,
hopefully
in
early
march,
but
we're
also
you
know,
we
earlier
today
quoted
a
survey
that
we
saw
that
asked
people
who,
who
do
you
trust
the
most
to
give
you
advice
about
the
safety
of
the
vaccine
that
might
persuade
you
to
take
the
vaccine.
If
you
were
uncertain-
and
I
might
have
expected
that
people
would
pay
attention
to
celebrities-
or
you
know,
community
leaders,
but
this
what
came
out
is
number
one.
G
Was
your
own
doctor,
your
own
nurses,
the
people
that
already
know
you,
and
so
I'm
very
much
interested
in
giving
the
vaccine
to
providers
that
already
know
these
patients,
and
I
think
they
can
be
persuasive
to
those
folks
and
so
the
federally
qualified
health
centers
have
been
really
trusted
providers.
They
again
have
a
limited
throughput,
but
I
think
if
there's
anyone
who
can
persuade
the
reluctant
people
they're
the
ones
who
can
do
that.
F
Thank
you.
I
appreciate
it.
I
think
I
actually
think
that
that's
a
a
phenomenal
idea,
I
think
providers
are,
are
an
excellent
source
of
trying
to
reach
that
demographic,
and
I
can't
wait
until
march
to
see
what
this
comms
plan
is
and
I'm
hoping
that
with
that
comps
plan,
that
means
that
we'll
be
in
a
position
to
provide
mass
vaccinations
for
the
citizens
of
philadelphia
by
mid-march.
The
last
thing
you,
the
the
administration,
talked
about
using
a
convention
center
as
it
relates
to
a
mass
vaccination
site.
F
I
know
that
they
talked
about
subsidies
as
a
release
to
pay
wondering
if
anybody
talked
to
the
ppa.
The
parking
authority
councilmember
dom
talked
about
people
not
paying
for
parking
things
like
that.
I
haven't
you
know
and
I'm
the
chair
of
streets
of
services.
I
haven't
been
and
hate
to
wear
that
hat
right
now,
but
I
haven't
been
happy
with
the
ppa
and
what
they
have
done
and
how
they've
treated
people
during
the
pandemic.
H
H
Does
that
entail
that's
woman
that
just
means
they're
on
north
broad
street
in
and
around
the
league
of
course,
and
I
can't
talk
to
you
about
the
boundaries
just
off
the
top
of
my
head,
but
that
means
specifically
that
ppa
would
not
write
tickets
between
12
o'clock
this
afternoon
and
12
o'clock
tomorrow
afternoon
throughout
the
duration
of
that
event.
Of
that
vaccine
event,
some
of
those
streets
are
posted.
H
There's
been
some
communication
out
both
by
dr
stanford
group
and
others,
to
talk
to
tell
folks
who
are
coming
to
the
temple
center
for
that
event
that
they,
you
know
they
will
take
a
park
on
those
streets
without
fear
of
a
ticket.
So
it
just
means
that
it
will
be
a
season
of
enforcement
in
that
area.
For,
for
the
duration
of
this
event,.
F
So
I
think
I
think
my
concern
is
that,
when
we're
talking
about
the
convention
center
as
a
mass
vaccination
site,
I
think
my
concern
is
that
this
would
be
I'm
assuming
the
facility
that
will
be
operating
ongoing
and
throughout
various
hours
of
the
day.
So
how
can
we
ensure
that
the
ppa
is
going
to
put
us
in
a
position
where
they're
going
to
be
able
to
relax
those
same?
I
guess
courtesies
that
you
just
talked
about
managing
director
alexander.
How
do
we?
F
H
Councilmember,
I
can't
I
can't
commit
to
that
right
now.
I
just
could
commit
that.
That's
the
conversations
we're
having
once
we
finalize
those
conversations.
I
don't
mind
whether
it's
one
of
our
weekly
calls
or
you
know,
whatever
other
form,
sort
of
communicating
back
to
council
that
that
has
indeed
taken
place.
So.
F
I
thank
you.
I
appreciate
that
because
I
I
I
again,
you
know
I
I
am
concerned
about
that.
I
am
concerned
about
the
convention
center
as
a
mass
vaccination
site.
I
think
in
an
ideal
world
that
that
is
not
where
I
would
pick.
I
think
you
know
I'm
born
and
raised
in
this
city,
and
you
know
there's
not
many
of
things
that
I
can
think
of
that
have
happened
that
have
invited
people
of
color
to
the
convention
center.
F
I
think
that
most
of
the
things
that
I've
participated
in
at
the
convention
center
would
have
been
something
as
an
adult
trying
to
maybe
raise
my
professional
profile.
So
I
think
that
I
understand,
from
a
geographical
perspective,
some
of
the
goals
that's
trying
to
be
met,
but
again,
I
think,
with
some
of
the
perception
issues
we
have
as
well
as
some
of
the
other
issues
that's
been
communicated
today.
F
I
think
we
really
need
to
have
a
collaborative
effort
and
think
through
how
we
select
sites
and
what
provisions
are
in
place
to
make
sure
that
people
are
protected
and
people
are
safe.
I
know
plenty
of
people
who
say
I'm
not
going
to
the
convention
center
because
you're
going
to
boot
my
car,
I'm
not
going
anywhere
around
there,
I'm
not
touching
center
city,
because
I'm
not
that's
not
a
place
that
I
would
normally
go
throughout
my
travels
and
throughout
my
life.
F
A
Thank
you,
councilman
councilman,
thomas.
I
think
you
made
an
excellent
point
that
I
was
making
earlier
as
well
that
you
know
for
for
a
lot
of
our
folks
they're
in
the
neighborhoods
they're,
not
coming
downtown
they're,
just
not
going
to
do
it.
It's
not!
You
know,
even
though
all
bus
lines,
transit
lines
run
there,
it
doesn't
feel
as
accessible
for
a
number
of
different
reasons.
So,
but
I
think
the
idea
of
multiple
points
of
access
the
convention
center,
the
link
in
the
neighborhoods
I
want
to
emphasize
in
the
neighborhoods.
A
I
think
that
those
sites
will
go
a
long
way
towards
making
sure
we
reach
our
target
population.
I'm
going
to
ask
councilwoman
kim
to
hold
for
one
second,
because
we
have
two
other
members
who
have
questions
who
haven't
had
a
first
round
yet
and
that
will
be
councilman
squilla,
followed
by
councilman.
Oh
councilman,.
M
M
Is
there
a
reason
why
that
you
know
when
we
give
some
of
these
vaccines
we're
sort
of
limiting
the
number
of
people
they
could
give
the
vaccines
to
like
some
of
the
pharmacies
could
only
give
it
to
75
and
over
and
that's
it
so
therefore,
they're
having
a
harder
time
filling
those
slots
with
people
who
are
looking
to
get
the
vaccines.
Is
that
something
that
restriction?
Is
that
something
we're
looking
to
maybe
limit?
So
that's
65
and
over
with
medical
issues,
can
then
be
vaccinated
at
those
sites.
G
Yeah
so
with
the
pharmacy,
specifically,
we
were
having
a
problem
with
their
software
couldn't.
Well,
they
don't
have
the
information
about
whether
people
have
medical
conditions
and
the
software
couldn't
screen
out
people
based
on
medical
conditions,
and
so
we
wanted
to
give
them
an
opportu
a
way
to
limit
it
to
people
who
met
our
criteria
and
an
age
criteria
was
something
they
could
have
some
ability
to
enforce,
based
upon
people
their
birth
date.
G
But
you
know
someone
says
I've
got
diabetes
and
basically
anybody
could
sign
up
at
a
pharmacy
and
we
made
it
so
that
anybody
could
sign
up
at
a
pharmacy.
Then
our
people
over
the
year
75
would
never
get
vaccinated
because
the
younger
people
are
much
faster,
much
more
aggressive.
So
we
wanted
it
and
really
have
this.
This
period
of
time,
when
the
over
75
had
a
protected
chance
to
get
vaccinated,
I'm
hoping
that
that's
pretty
short
and
then
we'll
open
it
up
to
other
people
who
have
medical
conditions.
G
M
G
If
I
could
just
explain
a
little
further
councilmember,
because
I
understand
the
concern,
you
know
that
the
none
of
the
pharmacies
have
an
ability
yet
for
us
to
send
someone
an
invitation
that
can't
be
shared.
So
what
happens
is
if
we
give
an
invitation
to
a
75
year
old
and
they
pass
it
on
to
their
son-in-law
and
he
posts
it
on
facebook.
The
next
thing
you
know,
500
people
who
are
you
know,
aged
25,
8
45,
have
signed
up
and
taken
up
all
the
slots.
At
least.
G
G
If
we
allow
people
who
are
under
75
to
sign
up
they'll
they'll,
take
all
those
appointments,
you
know
we're,
and
but
the
other
thing
is,
there
are
other
opportunities
for
people
to
vaccinate
us,
not
just
pharmacies,
so
the
hospitals
are
inviting
people
in
now
who
have
medical
conditions
who
are
younger
than
75.
The
clinics
are
doing
that.
Dr
stanford
is
doing
that
so
this
all
these
different
are
pieces
of
the
overall
network
that
we
hope
fit
together.
M
If
the
pharmacy
gets
a
whole
bunch
of
people
under
65
that
register,
they
don't
get
an
appointment
so
that
appointment
they
could
have
all
those
people
in
that
database,
but
they
don't
get
an
appointment
so
you're
saying
that
their
databases
aren't
savvy
enough
to
to
be
able
to
pick.
But
they
are
savvy
enough
to
pick
by
a
date
when
they
send
that
appointment
out
to
that
person,
they
there's
no
way
to
know
for
them.
What
name
has
the
appointment?
Is
that
what
you're
saying.
G
What
we
do
is
we
take
our
database,
our
vaccine
interest
database,
and
we
can
pull
from
that
people
who
meet
eligibility
criteria
and
we
can
send
to
those
people.
Here's
a
link
that
you
can
use
to
go
to
the
pharmacy
and
set
up
an
appointment,
but
people
can
take
that
link
and
they
can
forward
it
to
somebody
else
and
those
links
have
been
forwarded
routinely
and
people
who
we
didn't
invite
end
up
going
in
there,
making
those
appointments
and
the
pharmacy
at
least
if
they
have
a
threshold.
Okay,
anybody
below
the
age
of
75.
G
M
They
could
fill
out
the
they
could
fill
out
the
application,
but
they
wouldn't
get
an
appointment
because
the
pharmacy
wouldn't
give
them
an
appointment
because
they're
over
they're
under
65
or
they're
or
they're
under
75
or
whatever.
So
so.
I
don't
understand,
like
you're,
saying
it's
going
to
get
filled
up
by
people
who
are
not
eligible.
Yet
the
pharmacy
controls
who
gets
the
appointment.
G
M
I'm
saying
at
least
65
and
over
should
be
at
least
granted
the
opportunity
to
be
able
to
apply.
Instead
of
saying
you
don't
match
that
criteria,
you
don't
match
that
criteria
and
then
they
would
get
an
email
from
that
pharmacy
saying
you
have
an
appointment
for
march
24th
at
such
and
such
a
time
where
you
have
an
appointment
at
this
location
to
get
it
I
mean,
I
don't
think
it's
difficult.
What
we're
doing
is
we're.
G
Yeah,
well,
it
just
means
everybody
will
have
an
opportunity
to
be
vaccinated.
Everybody
will
have
an
opportune
vaccine,
it's
just
a
matter
of
time
and
it's
going
along.
You
know
about
the
pace
that
we
expected.
Would
this
is
going
to
take
months?
So
I
know
people
are
frustrated,
but
we
are
trying
to
do
this
in
a
priority
order
and
the
over
75s
would
be
a
higher
priority
than
the
under
70
bucks.
M
Yeah
and
the
confusion
caused
by
always
having
different
rules
from
the
rest
of
the
counties
and
the
commonwealth
causes
that
confusion
too,
and
some
of
these
people
who
get
vaccines
directly
from
you
know
maybe
female
or
I
think,
rite
aid's
getting
directly
from
the
federal
government.
It
just
causes
confusion
by
doing
that,
and
I
guess
we're
okay
with
it.
But
I
just
it's
a
concern
for
me.
G
Let
me
say
that
there
there's
a
patchwork
across
the
country.
Each
state
has
done
it
somewhat
differently.
I
would
be
fine
if
the
federal
government
said
these
are
the
priority
groupings
everybody's
going
to
follow
that
that's
not
the
way
it
rolled
out
and
I'm
not
so
sure
that
if
we
did
a
system
was
just
hbase,
everybody
over
65
was
eligible.
I
don't
know
that
that
would
help
our
racial
equity
goals.
M
Well,
I
mean
what
the
racial
equity
is,
a
question
and
a
concern,
but
it's
also,
if
you
do
75
and
over,
I
don't
know
how
that
helps
our
racial
equity
goals
either.
So
I
mean
we
can't
say
one
thing
without
saying
the
other.
The
challenge
is,
if
you're,
okay,
with
the
federal
government
giving
guidelines
and
not
changing
them.
Why
aren't
you
okay
with
the
state,
giving
guidelines,
but
you
decide
not
to
follow
them.
G
M
We
don't
live
in
those
states,
so
I
mean,
if
you
were
okay
with
the
federal
government
given
a
whole
national
guideline,
but
you're,
not
okay,
with
following
the
state
guidelines.
I
guess
all
right.
Well,
listen!
I'm
gonna!
Let
the
I'm
gonna,
let
it
go.
It's
just
confusion
just
bothers
me
and
I
think
it
causes
problems
for
our
residents
in
the
city.
So
thank
you.
A
Thank
you
councilman.
I
think
you
know
you
hit
the
nail
on
the
head,
that
there
still
is
confusion
even
after
you
know,
we've
got
go.
You
know,
we've
moved
beyond
what
happened
at
the
convention
center
before
with
philly
fighting
covet.
You
know
we're
we're
just
trying
to
reassure
citizens,
but
the
process
is
still
so
very
confusing
that
you
know
it.
A
C
Thank
you
very
much
chairwoman.
I
just
had
one
point
to
follow
up
with
the
managing
director
tomorrow,
alexander
and
that
that
was
this
discussion
about
parking,
and
my
question
is
that
if,
if
there
is
going
to
be
an
effort
to
say
between
this
hour
and
that
our
ppa
is
not
going
to
enforce
parking,
but
how
do
you
know
that
the
car
parked
in
that
spot
is
there
to
get
vaccinated
as
opposed
to
someone
who
parked
there
and
went
shopping,
went
to
a
restaurant
or
or
whatever?
In
other
words,
I
don't.
C
There
are
probably
ways
that
you
can.
You
know,
identify
the
vehicle
as
there
to
get
vaccinated,
but
even
someone
who
parked
got
vaccinated
and
then
just
left
their
car
there
to
do
some
other
things
you
know
is
a
typical
problem
that
that
we've
had
and
so
part
of,
is
you're
trying
to
move
the
traffic
the
car
so
they're
not
occupying
space.
So
more
people
can
come
in
park
and
you
know
get
vaccinated.
What
is
your
plan
on
on
that?
H
Yeah,
I
think
so
I
was
I
was
attempting
to
both
agree
with
the
council
member
council
member
thomas
and
let
him
know
that
we
are
working
with
parking
authority
as
it
relates
to
other
max
vaccination
sites.
Certainly
we'll
do
that
with
the
convention
center.
What
I
wanted
to
express
was
a
particular
instance
that
we've
done
it
with
this
ongoing
black
black
doctors
consortium
event.
That's
taking
place
right
now.
I
think
you
know
I
I
don't.
I
don't
want
to
put
a
burden
on
the
event,
organizers
or
anyone
else
to
be
able
to.
H
You
know
whether
that's
giving
folks
a
card,
so
they
could
put
in
a
car
to
say,
hey,
you
know,
I'm
a
part
of
this
event.
I
think
what
we
wanted
to
do
was
make
it
as
convenient
as
possible
for
folks
who
may
be
driving
to
that
event.
Make
make
make
it
as
easy
as
possible
for
those
folks
who
may
be
driving
to
the
event
to
park.
H
The
car
not
have
to
worry
about
a
ticket
go
stand
in
line
eventually
get
into
the
event,
eventually
get
a
vaccine
get
back
in
a
car,
and
I
don't
know
what
they
do
between
point
a
and
point
b,
but
eventually
get
back
in
their
car
and
move
and
allow
others
to
do
that.
That's
we.
We
want
to
just
make
it
easier
for
access
to
those
vaccine
sites.
H
I
think
I
can
talk
a
little
bit
more
in
detail
with
parking
authority
about
what
that
looks
like
I
don't
think
we're
going
to
be
able
to
have
a
parking
attendant
or
someone
who
you
know
who
are
just
monitoring.
Oh,
you
know
tumar
got
out
of
his
car
and
did
he
go
into
the
wendy's
I
brought
his
seats
will
be
more
before
he
went
into
the
vaccine
site,
or
is
he
actually
going
into
the
vaccine
site?
H
H
I
wanted
to
just
sort
of
relate
to
council
member
thomas
that
we
have
done
it,
at
least
in
this
one
instance,
and
we
are
looking
to
work
with
parking
authority
to
do
it
more
in
other
instances,
and
especially
when
we
start
to
get
multiple
mass
vaccination
sites
or
multiple
community
vaccination
sites
out
and
about
that.
We
want
to
have
that
coordination
to
make
it
as
easy
and
stress-free
as
possible
for
our
citizens
to
go
in
and
get
vaccinated.
C
A
So
thank
you
for
that
update,
councilman.
Oh,
I
have
been
monitoring
that
as
well,
and
I
sent
one
of
my
staffers
down
earlier
today
to
you
know:
sort
of
check
out
the
scene,
so
we
could
see
if
we
could
get
some
folks,
some
of
our
senior
citizens
into
the
leah
core
center
to
get
vaccinated,
and
I
was
told
then
that
it
was
very,
very
busy.
So
but
again
the
demand
is
high.
A
I
think,
dr
farley,
that
that
is
a
perfect
example
of
what
we
really
need
to
think
about,
which
is
vaccinations
in
the
neighborhood.
I
think
that
that
is
just
you
know.
I
cannot
underscore
that
enough.
We
just
really
need
to
be
in
those
neighborhoods,
because
that's
where
people
feel
most
comfortable
and
that's
where
they're
going
to
go.
Councilwoman
kim
and
a
follow-up.
D
G
You
know
I
haven't
seen
it
recently,
but
as
of
about
a
week
ago,
it's
about
53
percent
that
went
to
philadelphia
residents,
many
that
went
to
non-philadelphia
residents
that
was
in
the
beginning.
As
you
know,
we
started
with
healthcare
workers.
Many
of
our
healthcare
workers
lived
outside
the
city,
we're
now
including
essential
workers.
Many
of
them
live
outside
the
city.
We
hope
that
that
percentage
is
going
to
fill.
Our
presence
will
rise,
but
it's
you
know
it's
it's
too
low.
From
my
perspective,.
D
G
I
have
not
looked
at
that,
I
would
say:
we'd
want
to
look
at
it
after
they
shifted
from
vaccinating
staff
to
when
they
started
vaccinating
patients,
because
that
was
a
you
know.
When
they're
vaccinating
staff
they're
vaccinating
many
non-philadelphia
residents
when
they
went
to
patients,
they
were
told
to
vaccinate
philadelphia
residents,
not
people
from
the
counties.
D
D
D
I
understand,
like
the
actual
reporting
is
complicated
and
I
certainly
don't
expect
you
to
send
over
zip
codes
with
you
know
loads
and
loads
of
it,
but
there
needs
to
be
some
understanding
of
either
high
priority.
You
know
the
highest
zip
codes
that
are
in
receipt
and
the
lowest
zip
codes.
You
know
that
they're
getting
or
something
along
those
lines,
but
this
question
of
our
vaccine
doses
going
to
barely
half
of
philadelphia
residents
and
look.
D
I
understand
we're
trying
to
change
that,
but
I
think
it's
one
of
the
areas
that
that
will
help
us
understand
how
to
prioritize
some
of
the
providers.
So,
like
dialysis
centers,
you
know
that
serve
that
we
know
serve
high
needs
vulnerable
patients
who
are
living
in
philadelphia.
Are,
you
know,
perhaps
as
important.
You
know
to
track
as
the
large
hospitals
as
well,
but
really
just
feel
very
strongly
about
this
issue
of
the
zip
codes.
Whether
I
know
it's
not
in
the
bill,
but
either
way,
we
need
to
be
tracking
it.
B
C
Thank
you
chairwoman.
I
just
wanted
to
to
mention
that
we
have
been
in
very
close
coordination
with
our
federal
delegation
about
our
vaccine
allotment
to
increase
our
our
vaccine
allotment
on
a
weekly
basis,
based
off
of
that
very
point
that
we
did
at
the
beginning
of
this
vaccinated
number
of
non-residents
and
congressman
boyle.
Congressman
evans
and
congresswoman
scanlan
did
send
a
letter
to
the
cdc
last
week
arguing
for
an
increased
allotment
for
metropolitan
areas
like
philadelphia.
C
We've
also
had
conversations
with
other
director
cities,
including
new
york
and
chicago,
about
advocating
as
a
group
for
additional
vaccine
doses,
to
come
to
the
city
based
off
of
the
fact
that
we
are
vaccinating
a
number
of
non-residents.
So
we're
going
we're
going
to
continue
to
push
that
and
appreciate
council
members
joining
that
effort
as
well.
D
Yep,
my
only
issue
is,
we
don't
know
what
we
don't
know.
So
if
we
don't
know
whether
we're,
if
we're
not
actually
getting
the
public
reporting
by
zip
code,
we
don't
actually
know
which
providers
are
serving
philadelphians
and
which
are
not.
And
so
that's
why
I
feel
very
strongly
that
it
may
be
a
laborious
reporting
thing,
but
I
think
it's
really
important.
D
I
think
it's
key
to
helping
us
understand
things
and
to
be
able
to
track
the
equity
issues
and
the
allotments,
and
I
think
you
know
you're
you're
basically
already
doing
some
of
this,
but
you
know
you
just
need
to
provide
a
filter
by
provider.
So
we
know
what
we
who
we
should
be
prioritizing
as
we
get
the
doses
out,
but
I
you
know,
53
of
our
doses
are
as
of
last
week.
You
know
as
of
recently-
and
we
want
to
see
that
change.
But
you
know
we're
we're
a
number
of
months
in.
D
A
A
A
Madam
clerk,
will
you
please
call
the
roll
to
take
attendance
members
that
are
in
attendance?
Will
please
indicate
that
you
are
here
by
saying
present
when
your
name
is
called
also,
please
say
a
few
brief
remarks
for
responding
so
that
your
image
will
be
displayed
on
screen
when
you
speak.
Madam
clerk.
L
A
L
B
A
G
D
Okay,
I
want
to
ask
the
question
earlier
about
the
possibility
of
including
zip
codes
in
the
bill
and
just
to
have
a
discussion
about
whether
that
you
know
we
heard
a
little
bit.
I
think
today
about
the
importance
of
not
what
what
we
are.
We
are
not
really
keeping
close.
I
mean,
I
think
the
health
department
is
keeping
track,
but
it
is
concerning
that
only
half
of
the
doses
are
going
out
to
philadelphia.
So
I'm
just
trying
to
understand
whether
we're.
A
Right
well,
councilwoman
kim
right
now
we
have
a
bill.
We
have
an
amendment
on
the
floor,
it's
been
seconded
and
calls
for
a
vote,
and
so
we
could
certainly
have
this
conversation
and
with
a
full
body
of
counsel.
So
that's
what
I
would
recommend
at
this
point.
That's
fine!
Okay!
Thank
you!
Council
councilwoman!
A
So
it's
been
moved
improperly.
Second
seconded
that
the
amendment
to
bill
number
two
one:
zero,
zero,
a
two
be
approved.
All
of
those
in
favor
of
the
motion
will
signify
by
saying
aye
aye
aye
aye.
Is
there
anyone
opposed
you
guys
have
it?
The
motion
carries
and
the
amendment
to
bill
number
two
one:
zero,
zero.
Eight
two
has
been
approved.
A
L
B
B
B
M
L
E
L
E
L
Made
a
I
made
a
motion
for
the
amendment,
but
I
added
the
suspension
of
rules
to
be
heard
on
the
next
session
of
council,
which
was
technically
incorrect,
so
it
should
have
been
just
a.
It
should
have
been
just
a
motion
without
the
role
suspension,
but
we
did
vote
on
the
amendment
and
then
yes,
we
subsequently
on
the
second
motion,
also
voted
it
out.
L
A
B
A
B
M
A
A
Second,
and
for
the
record,
I
want
to
note
that
councilman
o
seconded
the
motion,
it's
been
moved
and
properly
seconded
that
bill
number
two
one:
zero,
zero,
eight
two
as
amended,
be
reported
from
this
committee
with
a
favorable
recommendation
and
further
move
that
the
rules
of
council
be
suspended
to
permit
first
reading
of
this
bill
at
the
next
session
of
counsel.
All
of
those
in
favor
of
the
motion
will
signify
by
saying
I
I
I
any
opposed
okay,
the
eyes
have
it
and
the
motion
carries,
and
that
concludes
the
the
business
of
this
hearing.
