Feds are paying for it: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/faq.html https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/vaccines/faq.html

  I wish we could pay for them here .... we have to wait at least 6 months before even being able to sign up to get something. (Netherlands)

    In the US it's a bit of a mess. Right now most states are focusing on high risk people first. So medical staff, essential workers (I think) and those 65 and over. My parents fall into the 65 and older category and can't find a vaccine anywhere local. It'll be months I suspect before these groups of people get their shots. Then they move into another group and it'll repeat. I don't anticipate getting my shot until summer at the earliest. The reason I say it's a mess in the US is each state is sort of doing their own thing. And some areas are getting very little vaccine.

      Also kind of a mess because states like Oregon were promised doses by the fed only to be shorted a lot with no answers on where the doses went. What worries me now is the push to get schools open without vaccinating parents.

      Everywhere is short on vaccine relative to population. My county is on track to have doses equivalent to about 10% of the population administered this month, so enough 2 dose vaccines for 5% of the county, not a lot. They aren't sitting on much if they get those doses administered.
