It just keeps getting worse.

There is no reserve vaccine. The Trump rollout blew it all.

Why am I not surprised?

More sandhill covid news. This week three people I know died of Covid. One of my ex board members died earlier in the week. Just saw in the paper that it was covid. Three or four days ago my wife's best friend's uncle died of covid, and yesterday Cousin Dewayne died of covid. None in my county, but I knew them all personally. They were all in their 70's.
So sorry for your loss.

Looks like Azar was being less than truthful on the 12th when he spoke.

Yeah but there is this also.

A Pfizer rep said the company is "aware of reported deaths" ..
I checked to see if AP had something, found this:

COPENHAGEN, Denmark (AP) — Norwegian officials have adjusted their advice on who gets the COVID-19 vaccine in light of a small number of deaths in older people, leaving it up to each doctor to consider who should be vaccinated.

The Norwegian Medicines Agency on Thursday reported a total of 29 people had suffered side effects, 13 of them fatal. All the deaths occurred among patients in nursing homes and all were over the age of 80.

The agency listed fever and nausea as side effects which “may have led to the deaths of some frail patients,” Sigurd Hortemo of the Norwegian Medicines Agency said in the body’s first report of the side effects.

More than 30,000 people have received the first shot of the Pfizer or Moderna coronavirus vaccine in the Scandinavian country since the end of December, according to official figures.

“We are not alarmed by this. It is quite clear that these vaccines have very little risk, with a small exception for the frailest patients,” Steinar Madsen, medical director with the agency, told Norwegian broadcaster NRK.

“Doctors must now carefully consider who should be vaccinated. Those who are very frail and at the very end of life can be vaccinated after an individual assessment,” he added.

Earlier this week, the Norwegian Institute of Public Health said that “any side effects of the vaccine will be outweighed by a reduced risk of becoming seriously ill with COVID-19 for elderly, frail people.”

It added that “for very frail patients and terminally ill patients, a careful balance of benefit versus disadvantage of vaccination is recommended.”

In its report, the Norwegian Medicines Agency said that 21 women and eight men had side effects. Beside those who died, the agency said nine had serious side effects without a fatal consequence and seven had less serious side effects. The nine patients had allergic reactions, strong discomfort and severe fever while the less serious side effects included severe pain at the injection site.

Overall, Norway has seen 57,279 cases and reported 511 deaths.

Across the world, officials expect deaths and other severe side effects to be reported after any mass vaccination campaign given the huge numbers of people involved. But determining whether or not the vaccine caused deaths can be very challenging and requires that all other potential causes be ruled out first.

The United Kingdom and the United States have also reported a number of cases of side effects that had fatal consequences.

The European Medicines Agency said Friday that it will receive and consider monthly safety reports from companies authorized to sell vaccines, starting in January with the Pfizer jab.

Thanks. I didn't have
much interactions with any of them. But still, even here in the sticks. death is all around us. Our positivity rate is over 20% most weeks, while the state stays around 10%.
Your doing great! Keep on the good healthy safe practices. We are. I tested negative again!! This was a very cool test site. Scheduled an appointment Between 8-830 and drove to the stadium. The car line was like a mile or 2 long but it moved very quickly . So did the long line of people. Only took 25 minutes in line. Super fast, super organized and I got a nose swab that did not hurt me at all and the test results came to me 10 minutes later. I am looking forward to getting
The vaccine soon. Take care!

That's great news. Both the negative test and that it went so smooth. Early on our parking lot was used for drive thru testing. We have one of the biggest lots in town, but they didn't really need much of it. There was never over 10 cars in line at any one time. That was several months ago. Our lawyers said if we were closed, we couldn't let the parking lot be used either.

I've seen the long lines for the vaccine in South Florida, so was pleasantly surprised when my wife's jab went so quick the other day. It was a drive thru setup in the health dept back parking lot. They had three lanes marked off, looking something like this.

I dont share a lean towards left or right, that does not make me a troll.

Most of the drivel here is a cnn or related lean with zero real fact checking or raw data.

Just becasue some one requires more than a link to a news network does not mean they voted for Trump.

The lot of you CNN humping tools are a complete waste of time. Zero facts and pure cheerleading drama.

Why does this bother me? Why give a shit? Idiots that cheerleader for the good feeling of a pat on the head destroy all the work my family and other families died for. Those rights you have, you didn't earn.

Fact is the majority of the drivel you spout is wrong. Cant be the coolaid is bad, no CNN told me "Good". Rushing a vax is a brilliant idea.

A "brilliant" asburgers wonder boy with massive conflicts of interest was paid billions to sell you a rushed goop, and had you sign a waiver to be sure that he wouldent be responsible for killing your grandpa. Idiots.

None of this is rocket science. Quarantine is not what we are doing. What is happening is you are getting destroyed as a society and you are too weak and stupid to pull your head out of the sand.

The 80's destroyed the western world and today the ass clowns are cashing in.

You want to keep your rights? Do you even know what they are and how they work? Naw you are too busy waiting for another pat on the head. It wont be long and the "bad" people will be saving your useless asses, again.

Go ahead show me someone else's opinion and tell me how proud you are to be their bitch, do it again.

In Los Angeles if you're accepted by ambulance in the ER it takes 8 hours before you get any care.
That was Ontario’s before the virus, been there, done that. Now they drive you 100 miles to another hospital. What I don’t get is why not transport the ones that are not infected to other locals proactively to make room for the covid cases instead of transferring the infected to non outbreak hospitals? Guess that’s better answered by the smarter than me politicians :o.

Yeah, and hockey sucks.
Hey now. Us Canadians will tolerate a lot, but you're getting pretty close to the line with a statement like that. ;)

You claim to not be left or right but you joined a weed growing forum to post right wing talking points with your oh-so-edgy libertarian twist?

Yeah, not transparently pathetic at all. Ah well, the ignore list grows.
