The Next Phase of Vaccination
Will Be Even Harder

Original Article

Posted By: zephyrgirl, 1/8/2021 9:33:43 AM

The vaccine rollout is not going as planned. Since mid-December, the U.S. has distributed 21.4 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines; fewer than one-third have actually made it into people’s arms. The problems have been many and varied: holiday delays, scheduling scams, long lines in some places, and not enough demand in others. These initial kinks are getting worked out, but that alone will not get us back to normal anytime soon. The next phase of the vaccine campaign—reaching tens of millions of elderly people and essential workers, along with the rest of the community—will be even harder.

Comments:

Sometimes I think it might be easier to just catch the virus and be done with it. I have a 99+% chance of survival.

Most sane people are afraid of this vaccine. It's untested and no idea what long term problems might occur. Saw on the news this morning my state has over 190,000 vials of the vaccine and only about 4500 have appointments to get it. We all know what will come next, don't we.

Fauci said 85% of the population (that would include children) must be vaccinated to achieve herd immunity. Some with heavier duty credentials than Fauci say that vaccine will not bring herd immunity. When will we hear about those who have recovered - the numbers - rather than the dubious death toll, which is part of the fear porn being foisted on us?

Vaccinate TEACHERS! If only to shut 'em up and get them back in the classroom for the sake of both our future and our economy.

FTA: On the most basic level, scale creates new challenges. And the first coronavirus vaccines require very particular storage conditions and skill to administer, adding to the difficulty. We’re seeing them administered to persons in long lines of cars. Driveup vaccinations. How are the storage conditions maintained under those circumstances? Skill to administer? A jab through a car window? I don’t think so.

Joe-Joe promised 100 million vaccinations in 100 days. I guess they plan to hunt people down and force them to get jabbed. Low risk individuals will be in no rush to get in line.

The Atlantic is a worthless, lying propaganda outlet. I won't even bother. Mark Twain was right. "If you don't read the newspapers, you are uninformed. If you do read the newspapers you are misinformed." Screwed either way.

Extensive talk about providing vaccinations only in a social-justice manner, such as to "people of color" first. OK by me - by the time my chance (as a white hetero conservative male) the problems with the vaccines should be readily apparent.

Coincidentally, I was in the Michigan Dept of Health website and was looking at the criteria for whom will be prioritized on the list. High on the list, was the 'Justice' category which Gov Witchmer has prioritized since (and before) taking office. I don't think I need to define that. Suffice it to say, it's not about age, or other underlying conditions as much as it is the "overlying" type of 'condition'.

Alibis defending those slow-walking vaccinations because they don't want the pandemic to end. It provides oo many opportunities to grab power over people's lives, i.e., shutting down churches and small businesses.

Don’t worry the “Big Guy” Biden while sitting in his basement with Doctor Jill has thought all this out and has come up with a plan, throw all the vaccine possible out there and let the chips fall where they may. That’s how he will get 100 million doses out there in 100 days. No problem with the homeless community as most of those folks can give themselves their own injections of the vaccine. So what could go wrong? Who knows when things turn sour Biden can always blame Trump, just as when Obama blamed Bush.

It is one of the ironies of the trial of President Trump on a charge of incitement of insurrection that the remarks most likely to be studied by historians is the speech delivered after the verdict — not guilty — was brought in. It was after the Senate ordered the outcome be sent for safekeeping with the Secretary of State, and the court of impeachment was adjourned, that Senator Mitch McConnell unloaded. His speech is likely to go down as one of the most remarkable ever delivered in the Senate.

Megyn Kelly is leading criticism of a Los Angeles Times columnist who compared her neighbors to Nazi sympathizers and Hezbollah because they backed Donald Trump. The Brooklyn-based author, Virginia Heffernan, wrote in Friday's paper that the 'Trumpites' next door to their 'pandemic getaway' in upstate New York had plowed her drive after a snow storm. Of course, on some level, I realize I owe them thanks — and, man, it really looks like the guy back-dragged the driveway like a pro — but how much thanks?' she wrote.

The Wyoming Republican Party voted overwhelmingly Saturday to censure U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney for voting to impeach President Donald Trump for his role in the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol. Only eight of the 74-member state GOP's central committee stood to oppose censure in a vote that didn't proceed to a formal count. The censure document accused Cheney of voting to impeach even though the U.S. House didn't offer Trump 'formal hearing or due process.'

John Weaver, a longtime Republican aide and one of the co-founders of the Lincoln Project, has admitted to sending 'inappropriate messages' to men promising them employment. The letter from Weaver, obtained by Axios, comes as several men have come forward this week sharing DMs the political adviser allegedly sent them. 'To the men I made uncomfortable through my messages that I viewed as consensual mutual conversations at the time: I am truly sorry,' said Weaver, who is married with two kids, but admitted to being gay in the letter.

A toxic brew bubbled in 2020. It burst January 6, 2021. Mark this day. Like 9/11, there will be a before and after quality to what comes now. 9/11 was a generation ago.

Liberty will be lost. What is obvious right now: Capitol security is woefully inadequate.

As we reported two days ago, Joe Biden completely made no sense when he was trying to explain the Wuhan coronavirus relief bill. It was really bad and it explains why they’re afraid to have him deliver an address to Congress or do any kind of a real solo press conference, because at this point they have to be afraid this is all going to fall apart if he does anything live and this all becomes too obvious to the American people. But there’s only so long that they can hold this off. And it’s getting worse, as video today revealed. Biden was holding an event to announce the nomination

Nancy Pelosi’s top priority is to turn America into a one-party nation ruled by Democrats. Her bill HR 1 trashes the U.S. Constitution in an attempt to rig the system and make it virtually impossible to elect a Republican president or Congress again. It’s a power grab. The bill eviscerates state voting laws and forces all the states to conform to a set of rules that includes automatic voter registration. Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote. Noncitizens are obligated to identify themselves and opt out,

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.
