COVID-19 - On the Ground

[Deleted User 89]

it really is quite shocking

health care providers shouldn’t bow to bureaucracy in lieu of fulfilling their oaths

Heard a story secondhand about a supermarket pharmacist that had about 3 patients not show up for their second dose. So, at closing time the pharmacist went around the supermarket and found 3 people to inoculate so the doses wouldn't expire.

That's what we need to happen. Just start sticking people.

That's all well and good for single-dose, but I personally would be afraid that if I got a gray-market first dose, I might not be assured of being in line for a second dose.

That's why we need a formalized standby policy.

China with a grand total of 88k cases thus far. ~cough cough~*bullshit* ~cough~

Ummm...almost the entire population wears masks daily.....

I'm with you on both points. FWIW, they were guaranteed the second dose. If that can be guaranteed consistently, then yes, let's use all the damn doses.

And it would just not be that hard to manage, perhaps by text.

Not even the size of one slack jawed Trump rally crowd.

If 20% of china doesn't wear a mask its the same as 100% of America not wearing a mask. They are indeed better about masks. They are also indeed lying about their infections.

[Cascadia]

China definitely lying about infections.

Yeah. Masks aren't 100% effective anyway and there are places where social distancing isn't really an option.

While obviously inexcusable, is anyone surprised?
Yes, I read the article.
So what real accountability is SHE taking AFTER THE FACT?
Hey, it was nice of her to model her scarf collection for us. I give her credit and praise for that.
My hope is each and every person who has lost a loved one to the virus realizes Trump and the "Task Force" weren't solely responsible - but the indifferences and negligence at the beginning (as well as the incompetence) very well may have played a role in their deaths.
Trump, Pence, Birx, Fauci, Adams, etc., etc., they can all eat shit as far as I'm concerned.
They ALL made MAJOR errors in the handling of the virus.

Uncle joe spent the last 10 months running his mouth. Yesterday he tells us “no matter what we do we cannot control the spread of the fungus.”

It’s all fun and games until the buck stops on your desk. You’d think after 50 years in the swamp he would know better.

Imagine if Trump sent the right message last Spring...

An Uncle Joe presidency was supposed to be about hope and unity and healing. 3 days into his term and he tells us there is nothing he can do.

Imagine if biden sent the right message yesterday.

[sdoyel]

Yep, Biden’s fault! Where’s his exact quote by the way?

Look, Trump planted this seed. The division has been sewn. The “Patriots” will not wear their masks... Biden’s focus is fixing this disastrous vaccine rollout.

Pence shouldn’t be let off the hook either. After all, he was in charge of this non-existent Covid Task Force. Fuck em all.

According to you didn’t it all just disappear on Nov 4, because it was all a hoax perpetrated by the media to get Trump out of office? So, there is no disease. What are you talking about!?!??!!

Those that are honest and true, like MICHHAWK, know very well that this vaccine campaign is the largest undertaking of its sort in the history of the world. This has never been done before. We knew there was going to be some trial and error. And here we are 30 days in and we are vaccinating nearly 1 million people per day. We are getting it.

Uncle joe has been set up for success.
