The Trump administration's Covid-19 vaccine distribution program needs a
major shot in the arm because at the current rate, it would take almost
10 years to inoculate enough Americans to get the pandemic under
control, a jarring new NBC News analysis showed Tuesday.

The goal of Operation Warp Speed, a private-public partnership led by
Vice President Mike Pence to produce and deliver safe and effective
Covid-19 vaccines to the public, is to ensure that 80 percent of the
country's 330.7 million people get the shots by late June.

To meet that goal, a little more than 3 million people would have to get
the shots each day, the math shows.
U.S. falling short of goal to vaccinate 20 million people by end of year
Dec. 29, 202001:33

But so far, only about 2 million people — most of them front-line health
care workers and some nursing home residents — have gotten their first
shots of the 11.5 million doses that were delivered in the last two
weeks, a review by NBC News of data from federal and state agencies showed.

"I don't think we're going to be able to distribute the 20 million doses
that were promised" this year, Dr. Scott Gottlieb, a former commissioner
of the Food and Drug Administration under President Donald Trump and a
Pfizer board member, said Tuesday on CNBC.

Dr. Celine Gounder, a member of Biden's Covid-19 advisory board, and Dr.
Ashish Jha, the dean of the Brown University School of Public Health,
have warned that the U.S. will come up far short of projections by Trump
administration officials that every person who wants a shot would be
able to get one by the spring.

Pence, who got his first shot this month, is on vacation in Colorado. In
a statement, Operation Warp Speed spokesman Michael Pratt insisted that
"there is an expected lag between shots going into arms and the data
being reported."

Trump, who for months downplayed the danger of the pandemic, which has
infected more than 19.4 million people and claimed more than 336,000
lives in the U.S., vowed in September that 100 million doses would be
shipped out by the end of the year.

But in December, when the first doses were delivered, Operation Warp
Speed's top scientist, Dr. Moncef Slaoui, cut the projection to 20 million.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the government's leading epidemiologist, told CNN on
Tuesday, "Well, we certainly are not at the numbers that we wanted to be
at the end of December."

My wife and I got our first Covid-19 shot this morning along with
about 800 other people. The vast majority were 65 y/o+. It was
fairly well organized by the local government folks but it would be
nice to have an appointment system to eliminate the long waiting
lines. We were queued up at 5:30AM and there were already 612 people
ahead of us. We finally got our shots around 11:30.

Vice President Mike Pence to produce and deliver safe and effective
Covid-19 vaccines to the public, is to ensure that 80 percent of the
country's 330.7 million people get the shots by late June.

To meet that goal, a little more than 3 million people would have to get
the shots each day, the math shows.
U.S. falling short of goal to vaccinate 20 million people by end of year
Dec. 29, 202001:33

But so far, only about 2 million people ? most of them front-line health
care workers and some nursing home residents ? have gotten their first
shots of the 11.5 million doses that were delivered in the last two
weeks, a review by NBC News of data from federal and state agencies showed.

"I don't think we're going to be able to distribute the 20 million doses
that were promised" this year, Dr. Scott Gottlieb, a former commissioner
of the Food and Drug Administration under President Donald Trump and a
Pfizer board member, said Tuesday on CNBC.

Dr. Celine Gounder, a member of Biden's Covid-19 advisory board, and Dr.
Ashish Jha, the dean of the Brown University School of Public Health,
have warned that the U.S. will come up far short of projections by Trump
administration officials that every person who wants a shot would be
able to get one by the spring.

Pence, who got his first shot this month, is on vacation in Colorado. In
a statement, Operation Warp Speed spokesman Michael Pratt insisted that
"there is an expected lag between shots going into arms and the data
being reported."

Trump, who for months downplayed the danger of the pandemic, which has
infected more than 19.4 million people and claimed more than 336,000
lives in the U.S., vowed in September that 100 million doses would be
shipped out by the end of the year.

But in December, when the first doses were delivered, Operation Warp
Speed's top scientist, Dr. Moncef Slaoui, cut the projection to 20 million.

Dr. Anthony Fauci, the government's leading epidemiologist, told CNN on
Tuesday, "Well, we certainly are not at the numbers that we wanted to be
at the end of December."

My wife and I got our first Covid-19 shot this morning along with
about 800 other people. The vast majority were 65 y/o+. It was
fairly well organized by the local government folks but it would be
nice to have an appointment system to eliminate the long waiting
lines. We were queued up at 5:30AM and there were already 612 people
ahead of us. We finally got our shots around 11:30.


Worth the wait, though. Congrats. My wife got her first vaccination shot
yesterday...I probably will be able to do so in January, I hope. Which
vaccine did you get?

===

Moderna.

Looks like Trump and DeSantis came through for you. It would be nice if you
showed your gratitude. :-)

Trump is a has been in my opinion, and deservedly so. The jury is
still out on DeSantis. He may be OK once he gets his head out of
Trump's butt.

The Trump administration's Covid-19 vaccine distribution program needs a
major shot in the arm because at the current rate, it would take almost
10 years to inoculate enough Americans to get the pandemic under
control, a jarring new NBC News analysis showed Tuesday.

Cy Vance, the DA of New York County, has hired himself some forensic
accountants to look into Donald Trump's affairs. That's a very serious
step in a criminal investigation and portends for indictments after
Trump leaves office.

From the Daily Mail:

Manhattan DA 'hires forensic accounting specialists' to help in criminal
investigation of President Trump and his business operations

Manhattan DA Cy Vance Jr reportedly hired FTI Consulting to aid his
probe. Vance is investigating Trump Organization in wide-ranging
criminal probe. FTI Consulting offers expert forensic accounting and
investigative services.
Vance's probe is one of several legal threats to Trump after
leaving office.

Trump can't pardon himself out of those messes.
