Please, please, please do this. This is an opportunity for state-level public health departments to save lives.

@luckytran Don’t call it a “weapon”. Dem leadership will not use it. Call it an electoral advantage. Ha, as if the US will ever again see an unrigged election, if it ever sees an election ar all.

@bjornqc @luckytran You make a sharp point — the language we use matters, and “weapon” implies something that will actually be wielded. “Electoral advantage” is probably the more accurate term, though whether it ever gets put to use is another story entirely.

@luckytran Smart move — securing direct access helps avoid supply bottlenecks and shows real commitment to public health. Hopefully more states follow suit to keep vaccines accessible and affordable. 💉
