So it seems the Federal plan was give the vaccine to the states and let them figure it out from there. Is that what you're counting as a "distribution plan"?

That should be the distribution plan. States and local governments should be better equipped to handle their local distributions. Should be! Instead of worrying about who runs each state, we should be worried about how each state can improve its operations, in the event of future need. The federal government can assist as needed or requested, but states have had lots of time to get a coherent plan in place.

Seems that leaving things up to the states is part of how we get so deep into the weeds to begin with.

CA collects taxes, I expect them to use them productively. The federal government doesn't have the manpower or resources to administer vaccines to 350ish million people. State and local governments have just as much an obligation to their constituents as the federal government.

Note - I'm not saying the federal government did an excellent job, but states need to be held accountable too. The federal government was never meant to babysit all 50 states.

Laughable comment..that’s what Democrats would like u to believe and is a talking point. I guess the 17 million plus vaccination prior to Biden just miraculously occurred...the Trump adm had already ramped up to nearly 1 million per day as Biden took office.

The Big Fauci already corrected the Biden administration day 1 lie of “no plan.” It’s like when the experts and media lied that trump couldn’t get the vaccine out before end of year.

Health and human department had the plan on the website...a total of 60-some individual plans were developed and assisted by CDC in vaccination strategies depending on where in the country they went.

Estimated 300 meetings with Biden transition team with the covid strategy including vaccination plan. Meetings with governors...via zoom and conference calls...some who didn’t bother to show.

Yet here we are with states like mine with vaccinations sitting around and incompetent governors complaining about supply and money when we have both.

California has been an absolute disgrace per the usual. Incompetent dem run from top to bottom.

Is it the "phase" distribution approach?

if a State gets 500k vaccines but phase 1A calls for hospital workers only for 3 weeks until phase 1B .. there arent 500k hospital workers in MD. So maybe 60k hospital workers get it over 3 weeks while 440k vaccines sti and waitr for phase 1b, then 1c etc

i am just guessing here with hypotheticals.

i found md testing sites to be well run.

Got it, so the Fed has done everything they can possibly do, it's just the states bumbling around as per usual.

Dude...I didn’t say that. I’m sure the plan could be better, but this is the federal government we are talking about. People seriously want their healthcare and other aspects of their daily lives run by these folks?

Just the narrative Biden rolled out immediately is a lie and proven so. Trump mismanaged a lot at the beginning...no doubt but once testing ramped up and they became vaccine focus, it was a lot better.

Biden did the right thing walking back 100 million in 100 days yesterday...we will meet and beat that easily. I think we will be doubling it.

But these lies of Biden saying day 1 he would beat the virus or first thing he is doing is authorizing 2000 to everyone...these were and are lies.

Once this is finally over and done I just hope we have a better pandemic response plan in place for the future. Because if we're ever hit with a more serious virus we're gonna be in a world of hurt.

This x1000. Thread closer. Politics aside this is the most important thing we should all be able to agree with. This will be my last post in this thread. I'll stick with the non-political thread, if anything, going forwards.

Unite the clans!!
