ニューヨーク・タイムズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ニューヨーク・タイムズInstagram)「For a vast majority of Americans, a coronavirus vaccine is like sleep for a new parent: It’s all you can think about, even if you have no idea when you will get it. Only a small proportion — about 11%— have received one or two shots of the vaccine, leaving the nation in a medical and cultural limbo. With so few vaccinated, most of us are holding our collective breath as we wait, while a small set moves gingerly toward the restoration of their lives on the other side of the divide. “A glimpse of the possibilities of reclaiming our lives has led, paradoxically, to a more palpable sense of what we had to give up,” said Niti Seth, a psychologist in Belmont, Massachusetts, who has been unable to get an appointment for the vaccine. Marsha Henderson has become a bit of a shot whisperer with her friends in Washington, D.C., after securing doses for herself, her husband and their 40-year-old daughter who works in health care. Others, like Jimmy Mattias in Manhattan, got a vaccine appointment with the help of his daughter. Catherine Sharp, a freelance photographer in Brooklyn who relocated to Illinois recently to help her parents, has had less luck. As she waited, both she and her mother contracted the virus, and her mother, a cancer survivor, was hospitalized. Pamela Spann, 68, who lives in Daingerfield, Texas is among those who have had two shots — a category that applies to just over 2% of the total population as of Sunday. “I am most looking forward to visiting my family again,” she said. “I also look forward to visiting and playing games with friends.” Tap the link in our bio to read about the frustration and, at times, resentment among those struggling to get a shot, and tempered elation on the other side of the divide.
