2. Wonderful! Perhaps the only ones left before long will be just republicans that believe it's all

a hoax, die hards that will never believe that Covid 19 is a serious disease, unfortunately for them, they'll be the only ones left catching Covid 19, can't really say I'm sorry or such, that they all seen the numerous news reports of so many deaths, so much illness, the running out of medicines, hospital space, overwhelmed medical staff, etc. In short, ignoring the common sense of evidence right before their eyes.

Go man, GO! Keep up the good work and thanks to all of the medical professionals that have made this miracle possible. My heart goes out to everyone of you. Thank you.

6. Vaccinated folks can still catch and spread COVID - it is still very dangerous.

Vaccinated folks can still catch it and spread it. Those who do catch it will only have mild to moderate cases - this applies to ALL vaccines in the US so far - they are preventing severe cases and death 100% of the time so far.

And because of the maskless anti-vaxxers enough of the population is still going to provide a fertile breeding ground for mutations that the vaccines MAY NOT WORK against.

silently get themselves vaccinated. They aren’t as brave as they let on. Once we can vaccinate teens and others want to travel and need it, we will get to immunity. When it is fully approved and healthcare providers start to push and even require it for employment, people will get vaccinated and realize they will be okay.

I love saying that!

Isn't it wonderfully refreshing to have a President who is not trying to kill us all to please putin?

7. Yes. I can't wait to see how much the MSM will be crowing about that!

Just kidding.
They are desperately trying to find any fault they can to make their coverage "fair and balanced".

We've had enough! Even Merkel said on TV she was fed up with the snail's pace German bureaucracy, but she's the leader of the country and can get vaccinated. We're not, and we can't.

"The American Rescue Plan is lifting us out of the pandemic." Sec. Fudge

Funny when you have a smart, kind, experienced, and loving person as President who hires
really good people and lets them work things get done.

We both got pur first Moderna shot yesterday. We both have a sore arm & I'm feeling a little woozy with moderate body aches, so just relaxing today.

10. They've ramped up to a pace that would see the entire population vaccinated in those first 100 days.

Or, everyone that accepts the idea that there is a virus, it is a pandemic and the vaccine works could be vaccinated in about 8 weeks.

At that point vaccinations should be made MANDATORY, but I know that will never happen.

Thank you President Biden.
