    don’t worry all the trump kids get one first
    But.........but......I thought Donnie had a great plan for vax distribution. The best plan.

    I mean, the vax was his baby, his big hail Mary that would make everyone love him.

      No, no, no. This is all BIDEN’S fault. If Trump were in office, he would have seized Pfizer’s stockpiles and the means of production to make sure the vaccine was distributed to all real ‘Muricans. Also, Trump is totally not a socialist.

        didn't the federal government order like 800 million vaccine doses? The problem is they spread the orders over half a dozen or more vaccine candidates to hedge their bets. In hind sight, going all-in on Pfizer and Moderna would have been great, but what if they weren't the first ones out of the gate?

          I read somewhere in August we could have ordered 500 million more doses and been at the front of the line but Trump turned them down because he was mad at them for not being officially part of warp speed. In any case this is going to take a lot longer than what we are hearing right now. We typically only vaccinate 80 million people a year so there are a lot of hurdles to overcome.

            This is correct. CNBC just discussed this and said that 100 million vaccines were purchased from Pfizer for the first quarter of 2021. (Includes this month because production has been ramping up). Of those doses, a good number are actually going to be *imported* from overseas to hit that target goal.

            Once Pfizer started seeing test result numbers, they offered the US Gov't an additional contracts for the second quarter of 2021, to which the Gov't said they were spreading around the contracts. Pfizer then entered into agreements with other nations for that second quarter supply, including shipping Michigan made vaccines out of country.

            Now its rumored that Mango Mussolini wants to sign an executive order demanding that US hoard the vaccine, p*ssing off our allies that already signed agreements either Pfizer.

              The EO would be unenforceable and Pfizer would sue and (most likely) win.

                The optics would be less than ideal as well, which probably means Trump will try it.

                Yeah, it would be great if the 330 million US residents got vaccinated first, from a selfish standpoint, but I don't have a problem with the vaccine companies spreading the shipments out around the world.

                        Today is going to be the start of a bad stretch.

                        Arizona reported 12k+ new cases today. 1,500 yesterday. Highest daily prior was 6k.

                          Most likely. The number is three digits, and it is Iowa, so it would most likely take all weekend for them to count that high.

                                So, we're getting a lot less vaccine here in the US because we wouldn't buy it? Are you ****ing kidding me right now?
