President-elect Joe Biden plans to release nearly every available dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech and Moderna COVID-19 vaccines when he takes office later this month rather than holding back millions of second doses, his transition team said Friday. The decision is meant to "ensure the Americans who need it most get it as soon as possible." (Snip) Outside of the White House, Dr. Leana Wen of George Washington University, was also apprehensive, noting that there is "an ethical consideration" since those who volunteered for the initial dose were reasonably expecting to receive the second in the proper amount of time.

obama emptied the warehouses, Pres. Trump a republican, restored the medicine and supplies and the emergency built equipment. Joe will empty them again and restore the supply chain from china.
Lord help us.

Of course it is. Considering the protocol that is supposed to be followed - two shots 21 days apart - his publicity stunt could leave many without the critically important (according to the manufacturers) second shot. There was a reason for holding back half of the shots. Rather simple math.

Where is the evidence that Leana Wen is an expert on anything except his/her opinions? And maybe he/she can explain how a vaccine stored in a government freezer saves lives?

First of all let's clear up one thing, anytime you see a headline that mentions "Biden's Plan" you can be certain the "plan" came from some wanna be commie in the "Biden" administration. Biden can't string together a sentence much less make plans for anything.

I get that calling it (or anything) "Biden's plan" is necessary to continue the charade of a man large and in charge.
How long do his handlers think they can keep it going?

Next in the plan will be to get everyone to get into box cars to take them to vaccination centers more quickly and efficiently.

Simple. Biden's handlers realize that if they can eliminate the second dose, the "best" immunity you can get is about 50% (which in my book is no immunity). They'll also try to delay J&J's one-dose vaccine as well.
That way, they can continue the pandemic indefinitely and excuse their continued encroachment and stealing of power and oppression and paint their opponents as evil for as long as they can.
I used to joke about living in Orwells' 1984. I'm not anymore.

Joe will refill those vaccine bottles with distilled water; the suckers will never know.

If all of the vaccine is released at once, there will not be enough for a second shot. Is this a ploy to be able to keep the country on lock-down and more under control?? What if one shot gives enough immunity and the Dems are screwed??

Dr. Jill probably made the decision. She's a heckuva doctor, you know. Needs to be made Surgeon General.

We are watching a farce. The "experts" were concerned by efforts Trump made in handling the virus from creation in a chinese lab and now the concerned marxist cabal are messing up the very rapid discovery and implementation of the vaccine. The left always talks a good game, and then plays the game like Venezuela, Cuba, and their ilk.

This is the first of many idiotic decisions by the "Biden" administration. Buckle up, because the ones to come are far more consequential.

It boils down to science. Science says the best immunization comes from two shots ... that same science says half of our folks will be immunized by late fall. Go one dose, and all ours will be half immunized by late fall. Either way, half our population remains at risk. The downside to “Biden’s” plan is the rapid falloff of protection from just the first dose...leaving our population again vulnerable next winter, and still needing two rounds to regain immunity.

Traitor Joe was an idiot who got every single issue wrong his entire life, and that was before his brain crapped out.

They want to get their genetic modifiers into as many people's veins as quickly as possible, before the longer term effects become widely known and scare the peasants off.

Thankfully, I and many others have already had, and recovered from, Covid-19. We will not have to endure the totally screw-up Biden Plan.

After a half-century of grifting parasitism Joe Fraud remains a profound fool. A fair match for the conniving swine who engineered his accession to malign power.

I don’t want to hear ‘concerns’ about anything Biden does. They got what they wanted with this schmuck. Suck it up.

Of course, if he mucks it all up, he can blame it on Trump...
...and continue with masked lockdowns.

This is the problem with politicians who's only expertise is in shakedown.
He hasn't a clue what supply chains are, how they work or the simple fact that it physically impossible to inoculate the entire population by waving a magic wand.

Does #4 know that “vaccination” takes not one, but two shots, given 21 days apart, to give the advertised 95% immunity. Thus it is ridiculous, when there is not a continuous stream of vaccine out of the pipeline, to not hold in reserve the second halves of the first patients’ vaccinations. It is not being wasted. Just held in a safe, very cold place.

According to crazy, old Joe, the experts are always right. But he wants to clear out the warehouse of all vaccines for political points.
