They’re taking a vacation day during a pandemic?
The supposedly vaccinating Fairfax County Health Dept. on Main St. is closed until Monday.

To be clear, this is an administration office and vaccines are still happening over the weekend:
Clickbaity but misleading from @tylercowen. Main st office is admin, not vaccination site. Vaccines administered by appt to health care providers over weekend. Staff working around the clock.
Constraint at this point is limited vaccine received.

But, still. We’re in a pandemic and the rollout of vaccinations is not going smoothly but they take today off?
We’ve been waiting months for a vaccine. Thousands are dying of COVID every day. Now is not the time for a few days off!

Did they send out a memo or something?
Crisis over, apparently. 😡 https://t.co/JcyO0kTKKa

Somehow, they’ll blame President Trump for this, too:

Of course, not all government-run operations are closed today:
Are liquor stores open?

Of course! They’re run by the state. Can’t have that profit center shut down.

We’re on board with it:
