The long lines at the immunization clinics are there because people have so many questions that they are taking the time of front-line workers. Those are the true heroes of this crisis and those bearing the brunt of the government's abdication of leadership.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1648864\" data-originallang=\"en\">We need clarity and unambiguous messages.
