I played it pretty obsessively until their Harry Potter game came out. But then I got bored of that after like a week and never went back to Pokmon Go.
I probably would have kept playing Pokmon if that had never happened.

It's a fun game, and people who respond with "lol" every time it gets mentioned are clearly just trolling, but it does still get bogged down it some of the typical Ubisoft open world nonsense that make it feel like checking off items on a to-do list rather than providing a sense of exploration like BotW.

I'm Out of the loop: Did they run out of old people to give it to? Or it like they trying really hard to give it to health care workers first and it is backfiring relying on one group to vaccine when millions need it.

The issue is that the vaccine expires quickly. They basically had 2 doses that needed to be used in the next 10 minutes and gave them to whoever was there rather than just letting the vaccine expire unused.

It's one thing to look back nearly 80 years later at all the pain nuclear weapons have wrought and pretend like you would have been noble and declined to help, but it would be quite another thing at the time to be faced with the decision of "either Hitler gets this first or we do" (regardless of the accuracy that is what everyone thought) and to just decide not to help.
