> The health department has exactly zero plans regarding the vaccine

I'm in San Francisco and a family member runs a specialty clinic here. They worked directly with the health department last week to get their staff vaccinated as part of Phase 1a described here: https://sf.gov/covid-19-vaccine-san-francisco

I'm not saying the performance so far is outstanding or good, but it's simply not true that the health department "has exactly zero plans regarding the vaccine".

Have you tried using multi-process tabs? http://www.ghacks.net/2014/02/13/firefoxs-multi-process-arch...

It looks like the prefs to enable it have been shipping beyond the nightly and are in the latest release.
