CommonWealth Magazine: "Crowding at the top of Phase 2"

 

"THE BAKER ADMINISTRATION is continuing to move people higher in the vaccine line, forcing those down below to wait longer and longer.

First it was people between 65 and 74, who got bumped up from the end of Phase 2 to the second spot, joining those with two or more comorbidities just behind the first priority group – those 75 and older.

Then on Wednesday Baker elevated another very fluid group – allowing anyone who accompanies someone 75 and older to a mass vaccination site to also be inoculated. There are about 200,000 people left in the 75-plus group who could be vaccinated, which means 200,000 of their companions – young or old, even from out of state – could also get the shots."
