Discussion»Statements»Rosie's Corner» You do know what is coming next don't you? The bullies will be pushing us out of line to get access to the vaccine. Will they kill us?
Maybe not. Those bullies are the ones who refused to wear masks, so they probably don't think they need the vaccine. The ones that we'll have to watch out for are the ones with money who can buy their way to the head of the line.
I just asked a question L. Bet trump is working on a plan to auction off the vaccines, all proceeds going to him for his legal defense fund. He could make billions charging big bucks for the first shot and then the follow up shot. He loves to make money and he believes he is responsible for these vaccines so in a way he owns them and so why not make money off them? SIGH. Thank you for your reply and Happy Saturday to you! :)
They are quite a bunch. A "billionaire" BEGGING them to send in money. They do to the tune of $207 MILLION and counting. How stupid dumb must they be not to see how they are being used conned scammed and HUMILIATED? Dumb as they come? Probably. Thank you for your reply L! :)
Ditto. Remember when he campaigned he bragged that being so rich he could fund things himself and never be beholden to anyone? Now he is begging for money to fund his legal defense fund? How the mighty have fallen. Gotta ask! Thank you for your reply L! :)

He is in pig heaven today. Yesterday thousands of Trump Terrorists rioted in D.C. The ones who demanded the election be overturned. 4 were stabbed and 23 were injured. This is just the beginning of what the trump terrorists will be doing. He probably is dancing a jig. In the bowels of the white house. SIGH. Thank you for your reply L and Happy Sunday! :)
Laurel and Hardy comes to mind. "What a mess you've gotten us into Ollie". Or words to that effect. The Keystone Cops. The Three Stooges. Unfunny! Thank you for your reply L! :)
Just be glad Trump is in charge of distribution. Biden is talking of giving our vaccine out globally first.
And his Health guy, Ezekiel Emanuel who wrote in his book that after 50: " he would forgo colonoscopies, cancer screenings and antibiotics for common infections – or a flu shot for an imagined flu pandemic," a convenient parallel to the world in which we live today.
This man does not think the elderly Americans should have our resources wasted on them. But he is on Biden's Covid task force....not who I would want deciding anything that effects older people.
Once again, I believe you have misinterpreted what is meant by "vaccine nationalism." According to the article you linked, "Any national vaccine distribution program could be stymied, however, if another country decides to hoard more vaccines than it needs." This means a country should not be hoarding more vaccines than they need. It doesn't mean that any country should give away it's vaccines without caring for their own first.
Emmanuel is Special Advisory to the Director General of the World Health Organization. He agrees with limiting each country to an amount of vaccine based on their population. Starting at 3%. That will not even get our healthcare workers vaccinated, let alone elderly in nursing homes. 3% of our population is 9.9M.
Should we have to wait and put our citizens at risk?

3% then slowly up to 20%....we need at least 70% to beat this SARS-2. And have already secured those doses....we should do what is right for our people and our country. So we should be locked down and let our people get ill and continue to die while we wait for the rest of the world to catch up? No....there is NOTHING right or ethical about that.
Maybe if "our people" had masked up and distanced themselves and stayed home whenever possible, there wouldn't be such a great number of people sick. Ever think of that?

Masking up, etc does not/can not stop a pandemic. New York, CA, IL, have been locked down since spring....it is still there.
ONLY herd immunity. 70+%...either via people getting the virus and surviving and/or vaccine.
