    ive tried but I can’t navigate the website. Maybe it’s because I’m on mobile but I’ve tried multiple times and keep getting the same damn webpages

    I might just get on a waiting list for a local pharmacy and call it a day lol

    I checked through Bi-Mart and Safeway and was able to find one with Safeway. My schedule is 100% flexible though, so I just took the first thing I saw.

    Apparently you think you are one of the small minority that can make that judgement, Hailblazers? As you've decided Mullis is a good scientist and Fauci is not?

    Mullis, by the way, has been dead for a couple of years now, so nobody knows what he would have thought or said about the current pandemic/vaccine issues.

    https://www.ohsu.edu/health/covid-19-vaccines-information-and-appointments#section-1319536

    is the website my wife used, then you select the Check for Appointments yellow button. Currently, it says none available, but usually at 9 on weekedays, there are some to choose from. I was able to do it from mobile for a coworker as well this week. I would say to randomly check as well, because people cancel appointments and some randomly come up as available. When there are some available, that next page will take you through a short list of like 10-12 questions determining eligibility. Good luck!

    Also, my wife went in to urgent care on 82nd and Tibbetts, I think it was, and they were taking walk ins. They offered her one, but she had already gotten it.

    Columbia Clinic, might be worth a quick phonecall to see if they're still doing it.

    Yes to women seeking abortion. But providing body-altering gender transformative therapy or surgeries to a child is abuse IMO. They need to wait until they are of-age to make a mature decision.

    Child abuse? Ever talk to a trans person? How many years do they need to suffer before you decide what they are permitted?

    Similarly, children who develop cancer shouldn't be allowed to undergo chemo or radiation until they become adults and can make a mature decision as to whether they want such invasive treatments.

    Similarly, a horny girl age 17 isn't old enough to make sex decisions, so thousands of men must go to prison.

    Yeah. Not even close to the same thing.

    This over the top brand of wokeism will age poorly.

    Right, the "over the top wokeism" of not denying young people who are in such pain and misery that they're often suicidal access to the proper treatment.

    But hey, since it's not your pain, who cares, right? Liberals run amok.

    It took me about two or three days but I finally got my wife on the waiting list. She got her Pfizer shot at the Portland airport about five weeks ago and gets her second shot tomorrow, Sunday.

    Minstrel nailed it. No one does this lightly or on a a whim. Only after medical consultation and counseling plus having to make parents understand.

    Johnny didn't answer when I asked if he ever talked to a transgender person so I am guessing answer is no. Yet he and legislators know better than the young person, their family, and their doctor. Because straight cis males are a sure experts on trans and gay people.

    Try the Facebook group “Find a COVID Shot Oregon”. They are supposed to be really good at finding appointments for people. Steve Duin has a column on it in today’s OLive.

    I’ve talked to children before, yes. They don’t always have the best ideas.

    “When will masks be unnecessary? What scientific studies do these mandates rely on, particularly now that the vaccine is days away from being available to everyone?” said state Sen. Kim Thatcher, a Republican from Keizer, near the state’s capital. “Businesses have had to play ‘mask cop’ for the better part of a year now. They deserve some certainty on when they will no longer be threatened with fines.”
