"There is an enormous demonstration going on at Stanford Hospital right now carried out by staff, who are protesting the decision by higher ups to give vaccines to some administrators and physicians who are at home and not in contact with patients INSTEAD of frontline workers." Twitter
I work for a hospital doing IT from my house. We have been told that at-home staff are at the end of the line. Clinical staff have started getting vaccines this week.
The protesters allege that Stanford leadership pointed to an error in an algorithm meant to ensure equitable distribution of the vaccine aimed at older health care workers and employees, but that the error came to light Tuesday and officials decided not to revise the allocation.

Only Seven of Stanford’s First 5,000 Vaccines Were Designated for Medical Residents. Stanford Medicine officials relied on a faulty algorithm to determine who should get vaccinated first, and it prioritized some high-ranking doctors over patient-facing medical residents.
