I lived through it lol......dont talk to me about spin.
The biggest problem with the initial vaccine roll out was the all out PANIC of the me firsters to get it.

I also have an elderly mom and I told her that rather than go out into that fray it would be better to be a little patient and wait for a bit for the initial panic to die down, then go.

As it turns out, the over 55 Independent Living apartment she lives in coordinated the shots to be given right there where she lives for those that wanted them. Most happily got the shot and are now on the same vaccine schedule with their friends.

Bingo…and it’s really that simple. Plenty of blue states to choose from.

No. If we, the US is smart, we would have increase our capacity like other countries to deal with the virus. Of course, we have Biden and Democrats Governors, who are smarter, jab for job and fired a lot of staffs. Thank you Joe Biden for destroying our country and life of many families.

Agreed.

There’s another lib comment saying that DeSantis doesn’t “wait for all the information” and runs to the media all the time. That post describes Fauci, not DeSantis, but of course the poster adores Fauci. Go figure.

If you were reading the thread, you would know I researched it myself and prepared my family on where to go if they needed it. Long before it was being discussed anywhere.

Clearly lots of other Americans did not know or people wouldn't be claiming what a miracle DeSantis wrought by telling people and setting up clinics.

The point is he should have known way before he did and he/his health departments should have been publicizing it and helping the hospitals overcome their logistical problems in delivering.

What the heck do you think the Public Health departments are for? They are decentralized but he and the State Health Dept are responsible for informing them, coordinating with and assisting them when they need it.

Not just one scenario. Happened lots of places and DeSantis has demonstrated his incompetence in many different ways when it comes to Covid.

What does fear have to do with anything? That's some strange logic you have going on.

I don't like Biden, but I'm not planning on moving to a different country. Politicians are temporary. Why would I uproot my whole life due to one of them.

Everything you are complaining about HAS been worked out in the state of Florida. Other states should be so lucky.

DeSantis.....parks his clown car right next to Trump.

Maybe not this round, but one of these times the virus will morph into a variety which can't be controlled by something as simple as a vaccine, and DeSantis and his crowd will still be preaching "no vaccine"...right up until the time that a few millions of them perish from our earth.

Karma is a wicked woman.
