Mercury News: Bay Area officials pushing state to change vaccine distribution plan
State officials are promising to consider the concerns of Bay Area legislators who say many of the region’s hardest-hit communities were unfairly excluded from a plan to dedicate more of California’s limited supply of coronavirus vaccine to the state’s most vulnerable residents.
In a call Monday, the lawmakers urged Gov. Newsom’s office to rethink the plan that was announced last week to bolster the share of vaccine for underserved communities.
