Early in the pandemic, countries with populist, right-wing governments were suffering some of the worst outbreaks.(Snip)But over the last few weeks, as vaccination has become a top priority, the pattern has changed. Progressive leaders in much of the world are now struggling to distribute coronavirus vaccines quickly and efficiently:
Europe’s vaccination rollout “has descended into chaos,”(Snip)Canada (at less than 3 percent) is far behind the U.S. (about 8.4 percent).
Within the U.S., many Democratic states — like California, Illinois, Minnesota, New Jersey, New York and tiny Rhode Island — are below the national average.

Because "progressives" are trying to make vaccination another means of social control, just like the virus itself. None of this is about prevention or a cure. The pandemic is a means to an end - the end of the United States.

The Democrat governor of Colorado - aka The Fairy Prince - shorted El Paso County on vaccines. Why? Simple: we’re mostly Republicans.

Two scary things. My 90 plus year old Mom-in-law lives in Opelousas LA and we have spoken to people there who say they have a long list. They say they have not received any vaccine in two weeks. They will call us when they do HAHA.
The vaccines are available at Carl's Pharmacy and Dave's Pharmacy. I wonder if they have the medical backup to deal with severe reactions. Call 911 ???.
What was ticking along smoothly (see the chart in the article) seems to have gone completely to hell around inauguration day. Biden couldn't organize a trip to the bathroom.

If you want something done wrong and spend a lot of money doing it, get government involved.

The problem with the liberal states is that they've said that people in Group A can get the shots and until all of the people in Group A get vaccinated, no one in Groups B, C, or D can get it. What they failed to realize is that not everyone in Group A may want a shot so it will be a long time before Groups B, C, and D get the vaccinated. I'd like to get a shot, but right now the only people in Illinois who can get shots are people over 65, health care workers, retail workers, prisoners and prison guards, and first responders. I am none of those so I have to wait for all of those people before I can get a shot. How long with that take? No one knows.

Due to other medical issues, the powers that be decided I should be on the priority list for the vaccine. After receiving about a half dozen nagging emails and a phone message begging me to go the state website and sign up I finally went to check it out. First step was to complete a questionnaire. The very first question: Are you white or non-white? Second question: If non-white, what is your race?

Why would anyone be clamoring for this new "vaccine"?
It's not a vaccine, it's an experimental, untested genetic manipulation with unknown long-term effects.
I would not voluntarily take this.
See Moderna's webpage for a summary of this new injectable "operating system", "platform"

The lefties cannot see the forest for the trees! They will never see that they are incompetent because none of them have real world experience. They live on theory alone.

I'm with # 7. And does anyone really know which versions of this concoction are derived from the stems cells of aborted babies? I won't have any part of this, no matter how much social pressure is exerted.

9... the pressure exerted will be that no man will be able to exist in society lest they can prove that they have received the vaccination. Ring any bells?

# 10 I understand where you're coming from but I'm 70 years old, retired and willing to do whatever is necessary to stay under the radar.

I have a cunning plan. I have signed up. If and when they give me an appointment I will go log in. When the cute nurse says I should roll up my sleeve I will tell her "Sorry I have a phobia about needles, call the next person in" . If anybody asks me where my CARD is I'll say, "I'm old, I forget things. I'll go look for it."
Fiendishly Clever these reprocessed Canucks. (oops C-word).

The Dems are, as a group, complete incompetents. They can't plan a trip to the restroom and get it right the first time.
Our genius Demonrat governor here in KS had a "vaccine plan" in place, after weeks and weeks of her "experts" meeting to work it all out. I scanned through a few dozen pages of their "detailed plan".
As an engineering manager who has managed multi-million dollar projects and knows what a plan actually looks like, after helping to create a large number of them, what they had was a pile of gibberish paperwork full of neat catchphrases and nice words. Nowhere was there any trace of a PLAN. These people are idiots, complete fools.
And very few are getting vaccinated in Kansas.

If you want scary, search Gates, eugenics, and COVID. Then look at Gates and Epstein.
Remember the article about Plugs cancer foundation who gave no grants but someone from Pfizer was involved ?
