I lost my sense of smell for a while too. I have gained probably half of that back. I lost quite a bit of taste, but as far as I can tell, I pretty much have all that back.
Do you have a link for that?
Or are you talking about the lack of pharmacies offering vaccines in hotspot areas?
Yes, I saw that earlier today.Christine Elliott's response to a reporter's question about the 5 Neighbourhoods that jumped the queue is here:

That is not true.
The vaccine became available to everyone based upon age - the people in those "elite" postal codes did not jump any queue. The ones that were vaccinated were eligible based upon their age bracket. The problem was, some people in other poorer neighbourhoods, also eligible, were not getting the vaccine. Reasons might be harder to take time off work, language barriers, vaccine hesitancy, whatever.
So now there is a push on education and prioritizing those neighbourhoods in getting the vaccines out. They are even going door to door with the shots in some neighbourhoods/buildings.
The people who have been vaccinated didn't do anything "wrong".
Yes, I saw that earlier today.
Thanks for posting!
