A friend of mine's grandparents (in their 90's, live in western Nebraska) apparently got their vaccines through some sort of backhanded arrangement because they couldn't get it otherwise? Something about a family member working for the local school system and was able to get them vaccines through the school system's supply.
Unsure of the story's veracity but I've known this person for years and they don't have a reason to lie. I don't know if this was part of the mitigation plan or if this family member just used their connections to make it happen. If it's the latter, I'd obviously prefer somebody get a vaccine than nobody, but I'm sure there might be other situations like this happening out there.
