"First there comes all the important persons for the vaccination,
then there comes all the older generation,
and you not!"

"It is only a number theorist."

Nevertheless I got my first injection (Biontech),
modest reaction, no problems until yet.

That is a long gap. Hopefully that can be accelerated. From what I have heard the benefits of protection from the more troublesome variants only real comes in after the 2nd dose (this was Pfizer specific), so the suggestion has been to short the time between doses than team BoJo was doing.

On a side note, in the city I reside there some good stats:
72% of all residents (12 y/o +) fully vaccinated
84% of all residents (12 y/o +) at least 1 dose

Age   % 1 dose or more
12-17  67.2
18-44  73.9
45-64  90.6
65+    99.9

Unfortunately in Argentina we cannot receive vaccines from the USA. Pfizer is banned by law and Moderna and Johnson and Johnson are not approved by the government. So we can receive only Astra Zeneca and also Russian and Chinese vaccines.

The numbers for Buenos Aires City:

First dose: Healthcare people: 219,624, older than 60 years: 614,188, teachers, police and other strategic people: 95,536, people with health-related risks: 115,400, general population younger than 60 years (my case): 34,713

Second dose: Healthcare people: 148,306, older than 60 years: 123,178, teachers, police and other strategic people: 15,743, people with health-related risks: 0, general population younger than 60 years: 0

The popuiation in Buenos Aires city is 3 million.

Vaccines applied:

Sputnik V: First dose: 581,713, Second dose: 112,294
Covishield (Astra Zeneca): First dose: 343,863, Second dose: 53,256
Sinopharm: First dose: 128,837, Second dose: 121,078

Notice that none of these vaccines were tested on pregnant women, so they cannot get the vaccine.

The best vaccine is the one that you can get in you the soonest. I would have taken Vlad's impalement if that was all that was around. I hope that you can get your second dose sooner.
