🧵 I’ve spent more than a year documenting the near death of historic Mercy Hospital, Chicago's oldest chartered hospital. It's a so-called safety net that treated mostly poor, elderly & Black patients. It was bought in the 11th hour. But before then, it would slowly fade away.

Illinois is the latest state to claw back doses from the federal pharmacy partnership to vaccinate nursing homes. At least five other states have confirmed they're reallocating the unused doses, including to other priority populations like teachers politico.com/news/2021/01/25…
Illinois is moving 100k doses out of the federal partnership with CVS and Walgreens to vaccinate nursing homes because it's moving too slowly They're also sending their own staff to speed it up: "Teams are expected to be deployed this week."
