Why don't you ever inform yourself before you speak/post? Can you ever put your politics and personal animus aside, especially as regards me? Did I hurt your feelings when I talked about it mattering what university you attend and that SAT scores should count in college admissions? That's when I noticed the change.
I specifically said that it's the CDC recommendations which are at fault, and that the states following them are in the worst situation.
The recommendations specifically state that it is CVS and Walgreens which should distribute it. THAT'S THE WHOLE FREAKING PROBLEM! They're not doing it efficiently.
The CDC is also at fault for why seniors weren't getting it at all initially. The original list had front line health care workers get it first, and then "essential" workers, which include factory workers for CHRIST'S sake! Only when there was a huge outcry did they put the people in care homes at number two. Seniors are still way down the list.
It's a fact that the following states ignored it all and after front line health care workers are attempting to vaccinate seniors: Texas, Florida, West Virginia, Ohio. I honestly don't know why they're all Republican led states. Maybe they believe more in state's rights? Maybe it's because they haven't spent the last months canonizing the CDC and Fauci as the be all and end all?
Boo hoo, you haven't gotten it yet; they're not doing a good enough job for you. At least they've put you ahead of healthy factory workers. People in New York in their 60s, 70s etc. aren't even on the list.
Oh wait, on Tuesday Cuomo finally got embarrassed and said people over 75 could get it. Of course, they're still competing with essential workers, i.e. in the same phase. WOW! What an improvement. Meanwhile, it's sitting in pharmacies expiring. So he also finally got on the stick and said they'll ship it to doctor's offices and urgent care centers. This is the man writing a book about what a great job he's done on this. I trusted him too, and praised him often, even though I dislike his policies in other areas. That's until I realized he sent people ill with Covid to elder facilities when Stonybrook's facilities and the ship in NYC lay empty. Ten thousand elderly people were exposed and died because of that. Where's the apology.
I don't give a damn if someone is a Democrat, a Republican, a Communist or a Martian. If you do the right thing you get my praise. If you do the wrong thing you get condemnation. And before you start ringing your bell again, Trump made a bash of it (a man I never voted for btw), but so did most leaders of democracies unless they were islands on the fringe of the world. And the biggest culprits were the WHO, AND the CDC.
most of first vaccinated are Politicians and their families, and clerics :grin: :grin: :grin:
