Three Weeks of Vaccination Failure
With new strains rapidly spreading, Covid-19 Vaccine’s Slow Rollout Could Portend More Problems.
The federal government came nowhere close to vaccinating 20 million people by the end of 2020, as it had promised.
Of the more than 12 million doses of vaccines from Moderna Inc. and Pfizer Inc. with BioNTech SE that have been shipped, only 2.8 million have been administered, according to federal figures.
On Friday, Sen. Mitt Romney (R., Utah) criticized the vaccine rollout, saying in a statement that the lack of a comprehensive federal plan to be shared with states “is as incomprehensible as it is inexcusable.”
Forty-two people in West Virginia were mistakenly given Regeneron Pharmaceuticals Inc.’s antibody treatment designed to fight Covid-19 in those already infected instead of Moderna’s vaccine. None are at risk of being harmed, according to the West Virginia National Guard.
Mandatory Vaccines?

Can I ask, at what pace?

Give the Vax to rabid leftists, put them out of our misery
You will regret your moronic decision on your COVID deathbed, as you realize that evolution is real, and that you are living proof that poor genetics get weeded out.
Stand by for your epiphany.
This week the Christmas spike in Texas is there for all to see, I am using my influence to try to make sure my people get vaccinated. One thing is obvious…..the less educated the employee is, the more scared they are about getting vaccinated.
I have people risking their lives every day to take care of patients, who still have a hard time grasping that getting vaccinated is the best chance they have to stay well and protect their own families……and the general public we serve.
I’m not going to force my people to be vaccinated as a condition of work…..but they know where I stand on the issue, and most of them are complying. It’s still not a slam dunk to get them the shot.
I still think a second shutdown might become necessary. We are at our highest hospitalization rates since the pandemic began. I think most people are just numb now…..not even really paying attention to the numbers…..but I don’t see many people in public with no mask these days.
Suck our dick you tiny hat money worshipper your poison will not be taken by the goyim
But how do you really feel?
A lot of Trump Derangement Syndrome on this thread. 20 million will have shipped by the end of December, 30 million vaccines by the end of January and 50 million by end of February. Shipped vaccines do not equal shots in the arm, so expect a delay of shots in the arm and the accounting of such. Leave it to Biden to negatively politicize a successful effort. Trump deserves a lot of credit.

Friends. . . ask yourselves why the dominant flu virus burns out in the spring? Could it be that it lacks kindling?
At the moment, we are “vaccinating” ourselves at a very high rate, my educated guess is that in So Cal, we are currently infecting 6-8% of the population. . . PER WEEK!, process that. Then consider all of the people that have had it leading into the current waves. The manuscripts Ive read suggest minimum of 3 months of immunity, with some suggesting more than 8 months.
April seroprevalence data from LA was around 5%, before thanksgiving it was closer to 20%, each week after thanksgiving add 3-8%. You see very quickly that the population is being “vaccinated” very effectively without any intervention on the national level. At an average of 5% you are at herd immunity levels in 12 weeks. End of February.
Meanwhile in the UK…
A SAGE adviser today hinted a third national lockdown including mass school closures may be required to suppress Covid as he insisted ‘keeping people apart’ stops the virus from spreading.
Professor Sir Mark Walport claimed the ‘mutant’ strain of coronavirus was transmitting rapidly among children, with those aged between 12 and 16 seven times more likely to ‘infect’ a household.
Speaking on the BBC’s Andrew Marr Show as Liverpool’s leaders called for a blanket shutdown, he said it would be ‘very, very difficult’ to keep the disease under control ‘without tighter social distancing measures’.
Sir Mark also suggested the UK has struggled to keep cases down because it is a ‘western liberal democracy’, hinting that draconian countermeasures adopted in unfree countries like Vietnam had suppressed the virus.
Asked if Tier 4 restrictions were enough, the former Chief Scientific Adviser today said: ‘It’s the Tier 4 restrictions, it’s obeying them.
‘It is thinking about breaking essentially every possible route of transmission we possibly can. Those are the things that are absolutely necessary and it is pretty clear we’re going to need more.’
Talking about ‘mutant’ Covid, he said: ‘We now have a much more transmissible variant and I’m afraid this is the natural evolution of viruses.
‘The ones that can transmit most effectively have an advantage over other variants and so it is clear this variant is transmitting more readily. It’s transmitting more readily in younger age groups as well.
‘It’s good to note it doesn’t appear to cause worse disease or that it is going to be more resistant to the effects of the vaccine, but it is going to be very, very difficult to keep it under control without tighter social distancing measures.’
Sir Mark continued: ‘The thing that actually stops the virus, and we know that it can do, is keeping people apart. The virus can only get from one person to another through proximity, and so it really is about doing everything we possibly can to keep ourselves as safe as possible.’
It comes as Boris Johnson today refused to rule out a total shutdown, telling Marr he is ‘reconciled’ to imposing further restrictions on public life as the number of coronavirus cases rises.
I got round one, but I will be taking Ivermectin per the Marik preventive prophylaxis protocol for the time being…at least until the booster which I get on the 26th. Maybe a bit longer, as long as the cases keep rising.
For those who blithely say no to the vaccine, please understand that in the very short run, in many parts of the US, the risk of getting COVID is probably higher now than at any time since the pandemic began…and that the potential benefits of the vaccine far outweigh any potential side effects.
I am particularly concerned for outpatient healthcare personnel. As the case levels have risen, my view is that the protocols we developed to protect ourselves and our patients last spring will possibly start to be insufficient to keep doctors offices safe.
Yeah, so am I as well as my own safety. I’m in LA and scheduled to get fillings on Wed. Seriously contemplating bumping that forward a couple months until I’m vaccinated or get a t-cell immunity test to verify I had it a year ago.
I wish I could say there is nothing to worry about. All I can say with certainty is that the steps we’ve taken have worked pretty well up until now…..but the protocols are about to be tested…..it’s quite possible we might go back to emergency treatment only……although nobody is saying that yet.
I am getting vaccinated with the Moderna vaccine in a week. I feel like I have won the lottery!
You must be a retarded Leftist, hope it killed you
I can’t get a PS5 either!
No, its not that, you probably have a high IQ
Things are not going smoothly in the EU either… This is probably the biggest internationally organised operation since D day! What did you actually expect ? Miracles? Personally I don t want no shot , never had a flu shot either, so please have mine ! … I am just too good for this fckn world, am I not ?
Nobody wants your juiceish poison Rabbi
At Thursday press conference, VT governor reported that Vermont is not getting the promised number of doses. I don’t remember the numbers but the actual doses coming in vary significantly from what was promised. This could cause a major problem insuring all get the second shot. Lots of confusing information out there and only gives people reason not to trust government, science and pharma companies.
China has gotten ahead of the virus and its economy is well ahead of ours in terms of recovery. You can’t recover on the economy while the virus is raging, something Trump never understood
That has been true of every prior pandemic in history. Areas that do the best job of controlling the pandemic have historically recovered faster.
China are a bunch of yello n*ggers
The following people need to take vaccines first to show the TRUST:
1. All CEO, BOARD MEMBERS OF VACCINE COMPANIES LIKE: Pfizer, Moderna, Astrazeneca etc
2. All the TV NEWS NETWORK, NEWSPAPERS, DEMOCRAT POLITICIANS, CDC Officials,FDA employees
They knew why they did not take vaccines but told the public to go ahead !
Few of them took vaccines but it was the minority group. We want to see 100% commitment from the above folks before we take the risk!
There is a possibility that the vaccine demand may not keep up with supply. Some may get only the first of the two shots, and then the vaccine supply runs out before the second shot is administered at the correct time. Does the person have to start the vaccine sequence all over, and end up with THREE shots? Such a scenario places an even greater demand on vaccine production and delivery schedules, which will lead to mistakes.
hhhmmm, why would a covid survivor get vaccinated?
LOL, to get a go back to work passport of course? It will of course require two things, first proof that you got the vaccine so the pharma companies can get their money back and second proof that you have antibodies.
That you have antibodies wont be enough in the US because. . . wait for it. . . It cant be monetized.
The Goyim must die say the kyaks
More like worm speed than warp speed.
America’s Vaccine Rollout Is Already a Disaster link to nymag.com
Meanwhile, Israel has already vaccinated a million of its citizens. Why is the US so far behind?
Israel is a small country , geographically speaking with roughly 8 million citizens. They have a nationalized health system and everyone is a member of the army. Add to that its a modern society. They have the infrastructure and the know-how and apparently the will to get this done quickly and efficiently. The U.S. was never going to match that but with the right leadership and plan we could have been much further along. The Federal government gave zero thought and planning to distribution.
B/c the juice are murdering the goyim with it
damn kyaks suck our balls, wart dick hats
NO more Trump to protect your asses, we can’t wait for Iran to start kicking your short littel people’s asses
There is a national Kaiser survey that indicates that a significant minority of healthcare workers are vaccine hesitant: and that the public tends to trust their healthcare provider as a source of information:
“More than eight in ten (85%) say they trust their own doctor or health care provider to provide reliable information on a COVID-19 vaccine,
…
The “wait and see” group is the largest, comprising 39% of the public, and generally want to see how vaccinations work for other people before getting it themselves. This group looks like the public at large, and their willingness to get vaccinated may depend on what they learn during its initial rollout, including news reports about its effectiveness, safety and side effects.”
I have to wonder if “social desirability bias” may lead more to claim they will take the vaccine than actually will, and I suspect that anyone who see their doctor being hesitant is likely to spread that hesitation onto their friends.
The LA Times confirms they are seeing vaccine hesitation:
“A recent survey by the Kaiser Family Foundation found that 29% of healthcare workers were “vaccine hesitant,” a figure slightly higher than the percentage of the general population, 27%. …
At St. Elizabeth Community Hospital in Tehama County, fewer than half of the 700 hospital workers eligible for the vaccine were willing to take the shot when it was first offered. At Providence Holy Cross Medical Center in Mission Hills, one in five frontline nurses and doctors have declined the shot. Roughly 20% to 40% of L.A. County’s frontline workers who were offered the vaccine did the same, according to county public health officials.
So many frontline workers in Riverside County have refused the vaccine — an estimated 50% — that hospital and public officials met to strategize how best to distribute the unused doses, Public Health Director Kim Saruwatari said.
The vaccine doubts swirling among healthcare workers across the country come as a surprise to researchers, who assumed hospital staff would be among those most in tune with the scientific data backing the vaccines.”
Except it may be the case that its precisely because those healthcare workers are aware that the vaccine trials are ongoing and not really finished despite the emergency use authorization. Its also the case that many people tend to get skeptical of a product which seems to be being built up to seem “too good to be true” in terms of the results rather than sensing they are being given a realistic picture of the risks and benefits.
I tend to suspect that if the public were fully informed of the reality that this is an ongoing experiment that they may be more inclined to trust that they are being told the whole truth. I suspect there may be a major backlash against trusting the vaccines in a few months when the public discovers the FDA’s incredibly incompetent choice to not tell people about the risk of vaccine enhanced disease, despite the FDA’s own EUA acknowledging it as an “important risk” that is “unknown” for after immunity wanes since the trials haven’t gone on long enough. Its odd that even aside from the FDA, unfortunately it seems many in the media don’t wish to scare the public by admitting the risk (or they are too scientifically illiterate to grasp the risk), but it seems likely to backfire. People will later wonder: “you didn’t tell us about this risk, what else are you hiding from us, why should we trust the vaccines are safe?” even after the trials have gone on long enough to truly establish safety.
Those engaged in wishful thinking that the vaccines are magically guaranteed to be safe despite the tests not being finished might do well to consider stepping back and considering that perhaps being more realistic about the experimental testing process might actually in the long run convince more people to trust vaccines.
Here in Portugal there is more down to earth analysis, even from various officials. Officially, as per the line of care authority, they are saying that vaccination will at best not have an effect until autumn, that the recent fanfare was to set a precedent of expectation and channelling acceptance via administration to care workers first.
It obviously also makes sense to offer care workers (amongst others) first access, but that is not the whole story, i.e. there is a presentation theme which diverges completely from reality.
After that is the question of mandatory vaccination, which is absurd to my view. Those who wish to go in public have a choice to be vaccinated, and so immune to those who do who are not vaccinated. It is also known that those who are vaccinated might still transmit virus. It is not reasonable to expect total vaccination to cover for the 10% for whom the vaccine might not work – and you note US officials bumping up the herd immunity threshold towards that 90% immunity. To top this off there is no proof of lasting immunity from vaccination, which would make the whole direction cyclical. In the name of countering that cyclical reality a global vaccine push and increased population and border management might find an excuse.
I do agree that people should be offered vaccination, and also that for entry into a protected public zone (e.g. state, or country) that is susceptible to new outbreak (because they have chosen isolation not immunity for example) , existing immunity or quarantine would be fair. However vaccination does not guarantee immunity and no transmission .
For example:
Kaiser is juiceish why would we listen to those lying murerous beaches? You got no Trmp protection now losers, you drew first blood, things change now
Simple question: Why is there absolutely no attention for who does and who does not need the vaccine (it apparently does not impede transmission, according to the WHO, Fauci, and others).
Obviously people who have been inoculated already don’t need a vaccine, nor people who are insusceptible.
Because Hebrews just love to murder Goy
Was Trump on TV taking the shot and using his own political capital telling people to take it?
WHY should Trump take the shot ?? He ‘s been + not so long ago, so he should be immune for the time being….
This had to of come up during planning meets and was probably shot down by Trump as too hard just like he shot down getting the Federal government involved in testing and contact tracing. Yet another forced error because Trump was afraid of failure. So Trump didn’t try and failed anyway . This will fall to Biden who will now be even further behind the clock than he should have been
Take note that the countries with “socialized” medicine are blowing away the US with their speed and efficiency of the vaccine rollouts. May be to early to tell but looks like the US is on the 10 year plan right now.
Data to support that please? I see the UK and Canada lagging the US, with Israel leading. I also note the best and first vaccine was developed in a non-socialized medical system country.
The socialists are retards, what do you expect, Juice will be killing all Goyim soon
I would have missed this because it was on MSM, so I’d like to thank John Titus for posting this revealing short video. link to youtube.com
I think part of the reason is that a lot of people don’t want it. I know I will not take it, maybe in a few years once everyone else is the guinea pig. The problem I see is that not enough testing was done, hurry, hurry, is a fools errand. If your skeered, find an alternative like Ivermectin, read the studies online and educate yourself on well it works and how safe it is.
Nope. That will only become “part of the reason” when everyone who wants the vaccine will be able to get one. Until then there are many folks who would gladly take it were it to be available to them.
Still there are those that come out with the oft’ revealed secret treatments for covid, because, yeah, every health authority in the world is hiding the “facts”.
My guess is that in the next few weeks, we’ll see the bonfire really catch on here.
The new variant raises the reproduction factor by 0.4 to 0.7 which if you go to link to rt.live you’d see that increase puts all states in a much worse condition. And, by the way, new data from England says children are getting sick at a higher rate with this variant.
The competent authorities have just asserted that there is no evidence that this variant (there are more than 1000) is more contagious or more/less severe, so you are contradicting the authorities/science.
The R₀ being calculated is not infections but PCR tests — there is no measurement of infections, nor is there any tallying of cases (present with symptoms, confirm with diagnostic test).
As for ‘secret’ treatments, they are not secret: they are promulgated by teams of extremely well published doctors and have tons of science and studies (including RCTs) behind them. The only ‘secret’ is the absolute orchestration of the media narrative.
Your competent authorities are ????
Because it is pointless to waste electrons on this sort of comment, let’s just wait a couple of weeks, OK?
Here’s an easy to read healine version..
Mutated super-infectious coronavirus strain was spreading quickly among children DURING November lockdown and only closing schools can keep it contained, new Imperial report warns
And another…
The new, more contagious strain of Covid-19 that first emerged in the southeast of England was already spreading rapidly even during the nation’s second lockdown in November, according to a report published Thursday by scientists at Imperial College London.
A report by scientists at Imperial College London released on December 31 estimated that the new coronavirus strain tripled its number of infections in England during the November lockdown while the number of new cases caused by the previous variant decreased by a third.
Researchers analysed how quickly the new B117 ‘super-COVID’ variant spreads
It found it was particularly prevalent among those under the age of 20
The report questioned whether keeping schools open in January will be possible
The study compared samples of the mutated virus taken from nearly 2,000 people in the UK to another 84,000 taken from people with other variants
B117 has a ‘R’ number that is between 0.4 to 0.7 points higher than others
R numbers measure how many additional cases result from each infection
Currently the US has an R of about 1.15. The UK’s is between 1.1 and 1.3
If the new virus variant became dominant in the US it could drive up transmissions and cases by about 48 percent
OMG. Somebody who actually realizes what’s going on. Personally, I think the ‘demic ends when Biden requests a change in the CT rate from the State’s dept’s of Health!
Almost all new drugs are funded by government funded research, including the vastly overpriced American Covid vaccines.
That’s why those of who vastly more informed than you know know socialist medicine is the best:
“News of the vaccine’s success was first made public on April 12, 1955.[7] Salk was immediately hailed as a “miracle worker”, and chose to not patent the vaccine or seek any profit from it in order to maximize its global distribution.[2] An immediate rush to vaccinate began in both the United States and around the world. Many countries began polio immunization campaigns using Salk’s vaccine, including Canada, Sweden, Denmark, Norway, West Germany, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Belgium. Less than 25 years later, domestic transmission of polio had been completely eliminated in the United States.”
I’m considering the availability of the placebo, given it offers decent survivability, is well tested, and is available now. Coupled with Plan B, with is also available immediately and well tested, I may just step aside and let the panic stricken move ahead in line for the vaccine.
The details of Plan B, when “righteous indignation meets intelligence”, the sparks will fly.
No doubt. I have been taking that regimen since March. Probably a lot safer than the vaccine.
Quinine is readily available in tonic water. Mix it with gin and you have the perfect COVID shot.
My wife was able to get vaccinated today. I hope to get the rest of the staff vaccinated this next week.
I think that the basic problem was unrealistic assumptions. The first thing that has to happen is to fill the pipeline, and that takes awhile. A month delay from production to when a dose is administered is probably good. I’ll take it when it becomes available, but I’ve never expected that to be before March.
So glad there was a plan in place and ready to go: blame everyone else.
I’m good with number 7,500,000,000 in line for mine.

“The Vaccine Rollout is Much Slower” because Fat Donnie from Queens has zero empathy and could care less how may people die on his watch.
Or, because Donnie Fatso has zero interest in governing.
Or, because, a disheveled, deflated, dispirited, dyspeptic, morbidly obese, narcissistic sociopath just wants to screw all the people who did not vote for him.
No. It is Putin that is doing it.
Or is the narrative turning a corner.
