"they’re starting to run out..."

"...until the next shipment comes in, but nobody knows when that will be)."

These sound like descriptions of dystopian 'workers paradise' things: shortages, information shortfalls, slow traveling news.

Is this the United States? 
 @b2f13d8e Yeah. The fact that the Edgewood Walmart is the only place within 75 miles of Eldorado that has the vaccine was bad enough. But the pharmacist at the Walmart said, “yeah, we ran out twice in the first few days, so they sent us an extra-big third batch, but those are almost gone now.” But apparently, corporate HQ decides how many doses go to each store, and Santa Fe, Española, Las Vegas, and the ABQ stores all used up their first shipment sometime last week, and await shipment two.
