Re: [Tagging] RFC: vaccination / COVID-19 vaccination centres

I agree that the venue for a vaccination is not always in a clinic or hospital. This is particularly true in rural Africa where access to health services is poor. Having the ability to indicate the presence of an amenity=vaccination_centre seems to make the most sense. When the facility closes the

Re: [Tagging] RFC: vaccination / COVID-19 vaccination centres

I think it depends on where yoj exactly are at, in Hong Kong the government established a few dozens indoor testing spots, tested a million people and a half, and then shutting down the facility knowing its positive rate isn't high. 在 2020年11月27日週五 01:25，Brian M. Sperlongano 寫道： > This [1]

Re: [Tagging] RFC: vaccination / COVID-19 vaccination centres

Mass testing without the strict isolation doesn't work, no matter how important the sport or the person. Strict isolation (not 'bubbles') without mass testing will work. Anyway, It's almost done, then all temp structures and facilities will disappear in favour of soon forgotten "quick response"

This [1] testing site in my state opened back in July (five months ago) and is dedicated to COVID testing only. These sites[2] opened in May (seven months ago) and are still going strong. They are co-located with a pharmacy (usually in the parking lot). While they may be "temporary" as in "when

Re: [Tagging] RFC: vaccination / COVID-19 vaccination centres

Well, mass testing did not stop the virus anywhere, it just costs a lot, drives people to despair and boosts the numbers. Anyway, as soon as vaccination becomes common practice, COVID-19 is just another virus disease you can get vaccinated against in a regular way, same as others. All the special

I'm in California, where it's almost cliché we love our cars and car culture, but it is true that not only here but in many USA states, we have "drive-thru" COVID-19 testing centers. I would guess that vaccination centers that are also "drive-thru" are likely soon (early 2021?), too. These

Re: [Tagging] RFC: vaccination / COVID-19 vaccination centres

The proposed new tag, vaccination=, seems like a reasonable idea. However, it might be necessary to discuss a main feature tag to use in the case when these are not administered by a clinic or doctor's office or hospital. There does not seem to be a widely used, suitable tag under healthcare=*

Re: [Tagging] RFC: vaccination / COVID-19 vaccination centres

Unless somebody has a crystal ball, it's at least plausible that these could be around for quite some time. If we're lucky and they go away quickly, it's easy enough to remove the tagging later. But, "indefinite duration" seems like a sufficient level of permanence for an OSM feature. On Wed,

We (Nederland) will likely use the flu vac system of local practitioners and old people's homes to do groups at risk first, and health care personnel will take care of themselves while administering.Will take two to three weeks for the first shot, and if a second shot is needed, 6 weeks. The rest
