The Trump administration's Covid-19 vaccine distribution program needs a
major shot in the arm because at the current rate, it would take almost 10 years to inoculate enough Americans to get the pandemic under control, a jarring new NBC News analysis showed Tuesday. The goal of Operation Warp Speed, a private-public partnership led by Vice President Mike Pence to produce and deliver safe and effective Covid-19 vaccines to the public, is to ensure that 80 percent of the country's 330.7 million people get the shots by late June. To meet that goal, a little more than 3 million people would have to get the shots each day, the math shows. U.S. falling short of goal to vaccinate 20 million people by end of year Dec. 29, 202001:33 But so far, only about 2 million people — most of them front-line health care workers and some nursing home residents — have gotten their first shots of the 11.5 million doses that were delivered in the last two weeks, a review by NBC News of data from federal and state agencies showed. "I don't think we're going to be able to distribute the 20 million doses that were promised" this year, Dr. Scott Gottlieb, a former commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration under President Donald Trump and a Pfizer board member, said Tuesday on CNBC. Dr. Celine Gounder, a member of Biden's Covid-19 advisory board, and Dr. Ashish Jha, the dean of the Brown University School of Public Health, have warned that the U.S. will come up far short of projections by Trump administration officials that every person who wants a shot would be able to get one by the spring. Pence, who got his first shot this month, is on vacation in Colorado. In a statement, Operation Warp Speed spokesman Michael Pratt insisted that "there is an expected lag between shots going into arms and the data being reported." Trump, who for months downplayed the danger of the pandemic, which has infected more than 19.4 million people and claimed more than 336,000 lives in the U.S., vowed in September that 100 million doses would be shipped out by the end of the year. But in December, when the first doses were delivered, Operation Warp Speed's top scientist, Dr. Moncef Slaoui, cut the projection to 20 million. Dr. Anthony Fauci, the government's leading epidemiologist, told CNN on Tuesday, "Well, we certainly are not at the numbers that we wanted to be at the end of December." from CNBC -- Bozo Binned: Herring, Bert Robbins, JackGoff 452471atgmail.com, Just-AN-Asshole, Tim, and Gunboy Alex, aka the Gang of Dull, Witless, Insult-Tossing Trumpsters. |

Now we have Cuomo specifying drug addicts are next on the list to get the vaccine in New York. Why? California hey want the homeless street people to get priority. How about maybe let nature takes it course and remove some of the leeches on society. Yes, that is harsh. |

That leaves you up **** Creek. Where you belong. I am not really a Trump supporter. I do think he has done a better job than the previous 5 Bush brothers. I think the Democrats candidates were mostly really bad choices. I liked Tulsi. But the leftists that are in control of the party will not ever support a moderate. Biden? Incompetent as a legislator, what did he accomplish as Veep? Seems as if we have put in place another war mongering President. Those of us who pay taxes, know he is going to raise and waste more of them. His choice of Yellin as Sec. of Treasury is atrocious! One, who would not let the Fed even testify, let alone be audited. Plus one who wants to tax the poor people. A $40 a ton carbon tax? That taxes all those people who Biden said he would not tax, 40 cents a gallon for gasoline, and a bunch for natural gas and propane. |

The vast majority were 65 y/o+. It was fairly well organized by the local government folks but it would be nice to have an appointment system to eliminate the long waiting lines. We were queued up at 5:30AM and there were already 612 people ahead of us. We finally got our shots around 11:30. |

Now we have Cuomo specifying drug addicts are next on the list to get the vaccine in New York. Why? California hey want the homeless street people to get priority. How about maybe let nature takes it course and remove some of the leeches on society. Yes, that is harsh. Perhaps everyone except Trump supporters should get the vaccine. That leaves you up **** Creek. Where you belong. I am not really a Trump supporter. I do think he has done a better job than the previous 5 Bush brothers. I think the Democrats candidates were mostly really bad choices. I liked Tulsi. Tulsi is a lunatic. ALL NORMAL PEOPLE ARE LUNATICS TO FAT HARRY. |
