Wish I could still be surprised by the pettiness of this orange asshat, but those days are long gone. Sad.

Same. And yet.
As bad as I knew this crew was gonna be at this whole #governance thing, I really and truly did not think they would be THIS out-fucking-loud inept, especially past the first year.
And yet.

Itâs not incompetence, itâs stalling.

It;s just a continuation of the policy âPeople who donât do as I say donât get a cookie.â If he could get away with it, heâd deny vaccine to blue states, too. The WHO wonât let him say where the vaccine goes, so he isnât interested.

Well, that clears a few things up regarding Trumpâs policiesâŚ

This could be interesting
We already use this technology for RSV prophylaxis (SynagisÂŽ) and it works pretty well. Catch is that in infants it runs roughly $1600/dose and you have to get it every 30 days. I have no idea how this would translate to adults, but I suspect it would not be inexpensive.

This is true as far as it goes. There are parts that cannot be cut short, and parts that should not, but probably could without endangering the public. This is particularly true in the question of durability and effectiveness of immunity. By the end of the year, the question of âDoes this vaccine generate antibodiesâ could certainly be answered. What will not be is, what effect does this have on vulnerability to infection? (Not all antibodies are protective) And how long does this immunity last? 2 months? 6 months? No clue, and on that one we really need to make that an ongoing study. If the vaccine actually decreases the vulnerability of the population, scheduling boosters will come as data is gathered. Lots of questions, way too few answers.

More of the McConnell do-nothing so WH can step in and take credit plan?

Are boosters typically the same as the initial vaccination? Is there a chance that an eventual vaccine will turn out to require boosters that we wonât yet know how to produce?

This is like their tax deferment. It solves nothing. It is just a silent, underhanded loan to people in need, that will come due again with even larger amounts once this is over.
Itâs like bribing people, âHey, you know, if I win the election, I will make them just forgive all this, or you can vote for Biden, and youâll owe tens of thousands of dollars next yearâŚâ
Itâs fucking evil.

Oh yeah. He did not want to see Trump Cities full of displaced people living in tents on the National Mall leading up to Election Day.
After - heâs set the dogs on them.

Whoâs to say he wonât? He seized shipments of PPE from blue states already.

All the current childhood vaccines are repeated doses of exactly the same thing, other than the TDaP (10 yrs and up) which uses a lower dose of pertussis than DTaP (2 months 7 years) to due to increased side effects in older kids and adults. This could happen with covid, but there is no way to know right now.

Now that it is almost certain to be after the election, he very well might.

After 1/1/21, all the back rent is due at once. Also, there is no help for the landlords who are still paying their bills. Just like the payroll taxes, itâs a shakedown. âIf you donât reelect me, you will all be ruined. That would be a shame, eh?â
