The "irrelevant best practice" of observing a freshly-vaccinated person for half an hour to rule out (or promptly respond to, as the case may be) any immediate and acute reactions to the vaccine? Irrelevant? As in you think that is something healthcare providers should...just not do, as though the human body is a server that can just be restarted if it crashes?
Like I made pretty clear, this article is to save Farley’s political career by denigrating this other founder who isn’t getting a different enough outcome from every other pandemic response organization in every other city. Nobody should care about Philly drama whether it was vaccines or anything else. All of those midatlantic carcasses of a prior civilization are not worth our thoughts for something this petty. They pretty much have to go after character, even the news organization “investigated” and all they found was that the underlying company was... a company. Wow. Let’s reiterate that its a for profit company, the default, just to ruffle the feathers of impressionable people and Europeans.
People are using their heads and finding the perspectives insightful.
The rest doesn't seem different enough from whats happening everywhere to really warrant Farley’s PR campaign here to prevent his resignation. Everywhere has bungled scheduling errors or vaccines logistics leaving extra thawed vaccines that need to be used that day irregardless of the order.
I was shocked reading this article but stepping back I just cant get behind this, my pitch fork is put away. I bet the CEO wasn't even wrong about the irrelevant best practice that was cited in this article.
Testing is different than vaccinations. The article doesn't distinguish that well except for “ahh theyre a for-profit company now omg oh noes.” A medical company with no actual contract with the municipality making money? How is that even a footnote. Their insurance reimbursal plan had to pivot who gives a fuck.
Like I said its just not different enough. Figure out what their logistical problems are and fix them. The end.
This honestly reads like Farley’s PR agent trying to prevent his forced resignation. My PR agent would typically make articles not seem to be about me by mentioning me/my organizations deep in the listicle or at the end of the article, and we would put a competitor at the top of the listicle to deflect the idea it was advertising to begin with, and then use the coincidence of being mentioned in the same article together to open a dialogue. We didnt actually care about engagement or the clout of being in a particular publication, it was all backdoor ploys. The commonality here is that the city is “competing” with this organization and confusing everyone, within a week of one logistical issue. This reads like that to me.
This isn't worth our attention.
