Wait just one minute...

If you listen carefully to most of the hot-shots over the past month or so, almost no one states that they will ADMINISTER twenty million doses of vaccine. They say that they will HAVE twenty million doses. That’s like saying “I’m rich: look at all the unused deposit slips I have from the bank.” It’s all part of the mass murder scheme. I wonder what the bounty is on American citizens?

I’m a dentist, a front line health care worker and I have no place to receive the vaccine. I’ve called hospitals, friends in the medical community, the dental society (always worthless) and the closest I’ve come is an ad from Acme Supermarkets which states that they’ll be administering it for free when they get it. It’s insane. I’ve risked my life for nine months, been classified as 1a, and no one has set anything up for us or other independent medical people including home health, podiatry, optometrists and many others. If we are treated like this, what did they plan for everyone else? Less than nothing, that’s what.

Too stupid to plan mass murder. Just plain incapable of running a hot dog stand never mind this complex process.

I do know that Essex County in NJ has a plan and has started vaccinating people. I know exactly where I'm to get it when I become eligible. The County has a website where people can register when their category is being taken. I assume that other counties in the state have a plan as well.

... his wants and needs are attended to without question or fail. Anyone else who hands a big wad of money under the table will then get expedited attentions for first class treatment. Others are considered steerage class,... and pretty much on their own,... good luck.

Biden seems to be interested in actually vaccinating people. He can start toward that aim in 3 weeks, and hopefully you will get taken care of then. As for the rest of us plain folk (non-medical, non-essential), regardless of our advanced age, I have maintained from the start and still say that we are looking at August or later before it's our turn.

65+ category would be eligible for getting the vaccine. I think it was through the Florida Department of Health. No walk-ins. You must “register” to get it. So I went online, found the survey and registered myself and my husband. Three questions. Name, category (health care worker or age 65+) and phone number. That was it. No information on anything else.

So we’re not much better off than not being “registered” because no more information was given. But at least we are kinda in the lineup. Maybe? Sort of? Next summer? Who knows? I don’t think they know.

Add minority rule and even the beaten down in red states -- lowest in gdp, highest in crime and vice -- don't expect to get federal help anytime soon.

Republicans focus on manufacturing the vaccine. However, when it comes to distribution, you’re on your own (freedom...). Democrats will take a more comprehensive approach focusing not only on manufacturing but on distribution as well. A vaccine is worthless if not adequately distributed.

Remember how conservanazis complain government is the problem .
It’s not true.

Government is almost always a failure when the conservanazis are in charge.

With tRump💩, incompetence would be a great improvement. He could f*ck up a one car funeral procession.

Just like they did with the PPE shipments last spring. They want a lot of us dead, period.

They have done nothing other than attempt to destroy the country and kill a lot of us while draining the treasury.
