J&J Should Go to Outlier Communities

    The Johnson & Johnson vaccine perhaps should be targeted mostly to the rural areas. In Utah, many of those living in the outlier communities are reporting having to drive hours to get the vaccines. That, surely, is because of the extremely cold temperatures the Pfizer and Moderna vaccinations have to be kept at, and such refrigeration is not always as available in the smaller communities. Perhaps, bringing in such refrigeration for smaller communities isn't considered cost-efficient, since you don't have as many people to serve.

    But, the J&J vaccine can be stored at 36-46 degrees Fahrenheit. Roll it out to the rural communities, then. Whatever is now left of it, quit distributing it in the urban areas, and save it for, and distribute it to, just the rural communities.
