Doctors protested Stanford hospital's vaccine rollout after the algorithm it used left out frontline workers and gave shots to high-ranking officials and employees working from home instead

Blame it on the algorithm....who created it. 🙄

What kind of analytics are they using? It’s basically a SQL query...
