That isn't an issue it will happen over the course of the next year

That isn't an issue it will happen over the course of the next year I'm not 'worried'. I'm just making a purely statistical observation using the recorded figures from testing. It just so happened that I noticed today that only those four states just within the week achieved or surpassed that level of testing. The World-O-Meter site lists the interesting column of Tests Per Million for each state. Only four have reached the 1 million per million mark.

So basically you only wanted to put in some statistics that have no bearing on the vaccine distribution? Ok continue on...

Ok continue on... Actually it would be very similar, with certain sectors going first, then others, and then others, while the first sector is also making appointments for a second booster injection that most likely has to occur on a specific time regiment to effective.

Let's ignore that. Everyone else is. Was the Spanish flu's death toll Woodrow Wilson's fault? The media back then would have never been so political and stupid as to even ask such a question. Thats only possible when you live among people that are begging to be ruled not governed. But that generation was built different than the one currently that thinks there are 65 genders and it can lower the temperature of the Earth---as if that's a good thing. you do realize Trump was the one who turned the virus into a political statement , not the media, right ? you do also realize thousands of officials from all over the world have stated how terrible the US federal government has responded to the pandemic , right? There’s no conspiracy here. There wasn’t in April and it’s the same now. 2

Not sure it will be a precipitous drop since other regions are starting to bubble up but the main population zones as you mentioned will have burnt out and will start trending lower. I do think we will hit new lows in deaths by time late September comes around.

You were not clear with your OP in regards to why you dumped your factoid regarding testing. Then over the course of several responses you both lectured folks for assuming the point you failed to make while gradually honing in on what it actually was. You weren't clear and folks filled in the blanks. That is all, no lecturing or moralizing required. Edited December 4, 2020 by WideNine 1
shoshin Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 My wife works for the local health system, directly with super sick patients in their homes in home care. Today they had a meeting where they were told they expect vaccines within the next 10 days and will be distributing them based on job (covid-exposed workers first) by lottery. My wife is in the first group it seems and will be getting the vaccine as soon as she's able. I saw this as a really good bit of non-political news. It's coming and it's coming soon. 1

He/she/it realizes all that but he/she/it refuses to admit that his lord and master f'd up on his response to the pandemic and lost the election because of it.

Trump's messaging was horrible but we're pretty close in deaths per capita compared to other major European countries (UK, Spain, France, Italy). It's a little unfair to pin it all on him and I'm glad he lost.

I assume she'll be the first person I know to get a vaccine (though my brother and his wife are nurses who work on Covid floors in Buffalo so they will be up there too). We should all share the early experiences, just to spread the good news. The Calvary is coming. 1

Let's see if those same "thousands of officials from all over the world" also then reject the use of an American made vaccine.
TBBills Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 (edited) America is now heading into the flu season as Covid cases sky rocket since the election and soon to see Thanksgiving spike. Many people are going to die this winter b.c of overloaded hospitals and lack of health care workers. But hey we have this president trying to commit voter fraud and steal the election instead of worrying about the American people... He will go down as the worst president to ever hold office all while spewing lies and creating a Cult of violent people. Oh well I guess we should all go play golf Edited December 4, 2020 by TBBills
