1. Operation Warp We Don't Give a Fuck

Is anyone surprised distribution is chaotic and a cluster fuck?

With trump and trumpers in charge?

Really?

I'm surprised they didn't actually fly all the doses over the Atlantic Ocean and dump them into the water.

They are equal parts incompetent and evil.

So there you go.

[PatSeg]

14. Or sell them to another country for a profit

[ancianita]

28. Each vaccine case has a temperature and GPS device so that's not likely. But it's the fed, for sure.

More likely is that the promised vaccines are sitting in warehouses waiting for the fed's written shipping directive, and shipments are now up to the fed. So it's not Pfizer, either.

[dixiegrrrrl]

16. I'll believe this is deliberate Blue state targeting

wanna see what red states are getting before I make up my mind.

[ProfessorGAC]

60. There Was No Operation Warp Speed

It was a public relations gambit. There was no tactical plan, no strategy.
Pfizer & Moderna didn't participate in this pretend plan.
The problem is that these two companies, trying to be team players, expected the government to prioritize & coordinate distribution. Good luck with that, given the drones doing that job. They are, daily, stacking up inventory in their warehouses, waiting for directions on where to send them. But, nothing.
Warp Speed was a PR stunt, and nothing more.

guilty for wishing that covid would kill him when he had it.

He's enough of a comic book character to think that way.

3. Here in Iowa, COVID Kim announced yeaterday

that our allocation has been cut by 30%.

All part of Trump’s vaunted distribution plan.

4. I guess we cn add genocide to his list of...

Crimes against humanity. This would be in addition to his kids in cages, leaving the Kurds defenseless and his initial handling of the pandemic.

[dixiegrrrrl]

20. Did you see Politico yesterday?

Smoking gun evidence on how they deliberately did nothing to prevent virus spread, and everything to increase it.
Talk about genocide.

[2naSalit]

24. Yes, I did, thanks.

I could see it from the beginning that he was doing everything to obstruct control of the pandemic from the start. I had contacted the disaster management director for our county about volunteering to help out. I had worked for him before I retired. I was asked to set up a "mask drive" for citizens to donate masks to the medical facilities until shipments could be secured. And what I found in my endeavor was that feds were directed to confiscate PPE and ventilators as they were being delivered to states who were told to find their own supplies. And the states and others were never reimbursed for these items after struggling to fund the shipments. which were stolen by the feds and resold to other countries or shipped to Florida and other trump states. Montana is, apparently, a trumpstate but he was trying to sink Gov. Bullock at the time.

So, yeah, these fuckers decided to kill off hundreds of thousands if not millions of us for profit.

[dixiegrrrrl]

31. I want to make sure that those responsible are tried and convicted.

The Political story names names.

Justice must be SEEN to be done.

[EndlessWire]

47. TY for an excellent summary.

Needs to be repeated often. This is what tRump did to us.

[MontanaMama]

53. Dear God. You are kidding me.

Except I know that you aren't. There is so much abuse and crime, how will it ever be prosecuted? This makes me sick to my stomach.

[2naSalit]

67. Yup...

It was one of their tactics to mess up all efforts to stop the spread.

[roamer65]

55. I had a feeling they were using the virus as a bioweapon.

Biological warfare by Dump = Genocide.

6. Somebody in the Trump regime has fucked this up

States report confusion as feds alter vaccine shipments, and Pfizer says it has ‘millions’ of unclaimed doses

Officials in multiple states said they were alerted late Wednesday that their second shipments of Pfizer-BioNTech’s vaccine next week had been reduced, sparking widespread confusion and spurring the company’s CEO to put out a statement saying it had millions more doses than were being distributed.

The changes prompted concern in health departments across the country about whether Operation Warp Speed, the Trump administration’s vaccine accelerator, was capable of distributing doses quickly enough to meet the target of delivering first shots to 20 million people by year’s end. A senior administration official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss internal plans, said the revised estimates were the result of states requesting an expedited timeline for locking in the following week’s shipments — from Friday to Tuesday — leaving less time for federal authorities to inspect and clear available supply.

A total of 2.9 million doses of the vaccine developed by Pfizer and the German company BioNTech was cleared for shipment this week, and 5.9?million doses of Moderna’s regimen are poised to go out next week if the vaccine is authorized this week, as expected. That will be on top of additional supply from Pfizer, which Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar said Wednesday would amount to 2 million doses.

That represents a sharp drop-off from what states were expecting, according to health officials in several states. At least three states received notice from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on Wednesday informing them of the shortfall, forcing last-minute changes to vaccine distribution plans for next week. Some places were intending to use the second shipment from Pfizer to begin vaccinating residents of long-term care facilities, officials said, creating dilemmas about whether to go ahead with those plans or to finish inoculating health-care providers on the front lines of the intensifying pandemic.

[Retrograde]

23. Hardly news - they went to Jared

to coordinate all of this (or has he forgotten all about the Covid taskforce - it was several months ago? I don't think his attention span is much longer than Donnie's)

I'm expecting to be on lockdown through February if not longer.

[Arne]

62. Which February?

[erronis]

64. When hell finally freezes over. When there is no March or spring thereafter.

[Lonestarblue]

43. Why are states having to go through a federal intermediary?

Why can’t Pfizer just be given the state allocation and let the states order directly from Pfizer?

[smirkymonkey]

66. That would be my question.

There was no formal coordinated federal response to Covid-19 EVER during the entire duration of the pandemic. Why should they have anything to do with distributing the vaccine now?

[LiberalArkie]

68. The U.S. Government bought all of it

[crazylikafox]

7. Jared is probably intercepting it and selling it off to the highest bidder

Why not? He did it with PPE

[lostnfound]

12. THIS THIS THIS THIS Black market Jared. Nt

[2naSalit]

25. Exactly.

[Midnight Writer]

27. Probably sold to Jared's Middle East patrons.

11. As always, not surprised

but I'm shocked yet again.

Somebody check out what Jarvanka is doing now. They got that $30 million for a plot of land in Florida from somewhere.

[Tech]

13. Is this why pence is running away?

[dalton99a]

15. And 4,000 really means 2,000 because you need a second shot after 3 weeks

[Midnightwalk]

73. How important is the timing between the shots?

Did states use their initial allocations for first shots expecting to get the 2nd allocation in time for the 2nd shot?

How long can the delay for the second shot be?

Can Biden’s transition team find out what is really happening and let us know?

[dalton99a]

75. Probably not critical. I suspect the 3-week interval is to maximize compliance

i.e. so people don't forget and disappear - since protection is only about 50% without the booster

[gratuitous]

17. Was it even a month ago?

Someone, might have been the president elect, suggested that the Trump administration hadn't really thought through the logistics of their vaccine distribution program. Oooooh, that made Needy Amin so grrrr! mad, implying that he was in over his head, and didn't really have a plan.

Fast forward to today.

[fierywoman]

18. Because WA is a D-voting state.

[dixiegrrrrl]

22. Yeah, I thought that too...

but read downthread here that Iowa got cut.

[StarfishSaver]

19. They want you to give up hope. Don't do it. Stay focused.

[Pobeka]

21. We need to set expectations that masks, etc will be necessary until the end of 2021.

That's where I have targeted my expectation.

The "mid-summer" 2021 is base on everything going right, and government that can actually, umm, govern. That probably doesn't realistically take hold until mid February 2021.

Everything going right even with good governance is not likely with the complexities of this operation.

[iluvtennis]

29. trump et al have no coordinated plan for distribution - all this shit is ad hoc. That's why trump

et al have been unable to share a plan with team Biden.

Utter incompetence.

[frazzled]

30. Same thing in Illinois

Governor Pritzger was fuming about it yesterday. Allotment was cut nearly in half

[bucolic_frolic]

32. Yeah, and the bogus government replacement personnel are in place to hide whatever they want

so they can sabotage Joe Biden's efforts in the months ahead.

We need to purge. New leaders is not enough.

[ancianita]

34. Biden and his pandemic team should make a public address about this.

[BootinUp]

35. Blue states don't matter! Nt

[BrightKnight]

78. It is a two way road and most

of the vaccine will be distributed after January.

36. And people want four more years of this fucking maniac?

We need to get him out now!! Tomorrow may be too late!

39. trump's sadistic plan: commit to enough for 2 doses, deliver enough for 1st dose only. nt

[rickyhall]

40. Some people still believe Bill Gates put spybots or nanites in every dose.

71. I started that rumor.

I don't want the Trump cult getting vaccinated so they can experience herd mortality.

41. Jared/Donald confiscating it to sell like they did with PPE.

42. Oregon had the same issue I think

They were expecting 35k doses or something like that and ended up so far with like 6k.

[liberalmuse]

44. Anyone else's first thought is the Trumpster's are profiteering?

There really isn't a word for this level of greed and evil.

[demmiblue]

45. Michigan is getting a 29% cut. n/t

[ananda]

46. The Trump admin is dropping the ball.

It might be deliberate, I don't know.

There might also be freezer issues.

I hope the Moderna rollout next week
goes better than this!

[marble falls]

49. Take deep breathe. We're going to come through this. We keep doing what we've been doing ...

... This is no time to panic.

[malaise]

51. And this fucking mass murderer still thinks he should be president

Shaking with anger

[EndlessWire]

52. What happened to the Military's

role in all of this?

I think the Gov should be completely transparent as to what and why. Otherwise, one WOULD tend to think that these other doses have been swiped. It just doesn't make any sense.

This is a major slowdown. Did they get scared off because of allergic reactions? Just tell us!

[roamer65]

56. How about TX?

[BrightKnight]

79. The local TX hospital was surprised to find additional doses.

The news called it a Hanukkah miracle.

[Ford_Prefect]

57. The memo was from Dewey, Cheatem & Howe representing D.Trump, M.Pence & J.Kushner.

[SheltieLover]

58. IL's vax delivery being cut 50%

Shitstain selling Pfizer vaccines? Hoarding them for bribes?

TN is expected to only get the Moderna vax after this initial Pfizer shipment, which makes me suspect the Moderna vax is not as desirable in some way, & that repukes will profit from the Moderna vax.

When the time comes, I will drive to another state, if need be, for Pfizer's vax, developed independently from shitstain's admin!

abuse, promise relief, take the relief away. impeached traitor and his henchmen put their own devilish spin on it.


Don't let down your guard. Wash your hands. Mask. Social distance. Protect your loved ones. We haven't been able to reply on this maladministration for any information or service. And we can't depend on them to get anything right at this point.
