Six chemists have been chosen initially, with 200 more offering vaccinations in the next fortnight.

#BidenHarris2020 #poetry #SeamusHeaney Such a moving poem and video - feeling so happy and relieved at this result 😃❤️.
"History says, don't hope.On this side of the grave. But then, once in a lifetime.The longed-for tidal wave.Of justice can rise up,.And hope and history rhyme.".- Seamus Heaney
