How complicated is it to set up 500 vaccination sites around the US, each staffed with 50 people and vaccinating a few thousand ppl per day?
US economy loses $16B every day from Covid. $16B would pay $32m for each of 500 sites...
These sites won't make COVID disappear without:
1. Ample vaccine supply - at 1m+ doses/day at these sites Pfizer/Moderna might not supply enough to keep it going full steam
2. Demand - Thousands of unvaccinated people need to show up daily at each of these sites, but not too many or they'll leave and lost hope and not show up once again once demand starts to dwindle
3. Staffing and logistical process - With bureaucracy this would take time to set up efficiently and ramp up
4. Sites would need to be moved to locations with unvaccinated people once the local population is vaccinated or not interested and there are areas with higher demand.
