“The epidemic in the U.S. is punishing. It’s widespread,” Dr. Michael Ryan, the World Health Organization's emergencies chief, said during a Monday news conference. “It’s quite frankly, shocking, to see one to two persons a minute die in the U.S. — a country with a wonderful, strong health system (and) amazing technological capacities."

I love America ... but I wish things like wearing a mask and social distancing didnt become tribal warfare.

I love America (I think 99.99% of all us here do) because we can have these conversations, where both sides have the freedoms to share their ideas, no matter how much we disagree. America is the GOAT. But still full of humans. So it's still a very flawed country, and always will be.

Where are you seeing that? I thought they still had to take a formal vote tomorrow?

Great news. Friends in health care already scheduling their vaccination, very exciting.

Moderna, you're up next. This is the beginning of the beginning of the end. Long road ahead.

"If I wasn't president? According to almost everybody, even the enemy, if I wasn't president, you wouldn't have a vaccine for five years," Trump told Fox News' Brian Kilmeade. "OK, I push the FDA and companies and everybody else involved like nobody's ever been pushed before."

The Pfizer vaccine was developed in Germany by 2 immigrant Turkish scientists .... there are multiple (apparently successful) vaccines on the way.

How many more days until Jan 20th?

No, no he's right. The United States is the only country dealing with COVID, Trump prioritized a vaccine and singlehandedly pushed Pfizer and Moderna to put more resources in it. Only he did. Nobody else. No other country is dealing with COVID.

Congratulations Trump on your single-handed success getting a vaccine distributed before the end of the year.

Still gonna get kicked out of the White House on Jan. 20th though.

Huge victory for the administration and health care industry.

Amazing feat to deliver before end of year

[SunnySide]

reading the news about the Pfizer vaccines being delivered is the first bit of good news Ive felt about covid. My brother and his kids tested positive last week, my family took a test Saturday and that came back negatives.

Lets get these vaccines rolling, we may have 5 different ones to choose from a few months from now.

Who knows ... maybe by mid 2021, just 6 months from now, we might be back to normal.

Fixed for honesty!

After you guys all take all the different vaccines, let me know what one has the best reviews. I've nominated myself to go last in the entire country.

Im a car accident attorney and deal with the State Farm, Liberty Mutual, Allstates etc. Each company has their own cost approach to settling cases. in each state (and county) it is different. In Maryland, Allstate and Maif claims are always going to trial no matter what. Their approach is to offer 8k total on 8k medicals and you have to do a trial against them for decent money. State Farm, geico, usaa you can usually settle pre-litigation or after you file suit but trials are less likely.

Coivd hits.

Courts close down.

State Farm was the first one to start making horrible offers. SF has always been the most forward thinking insurance company imo. Then all the other insurance companies started following suit.

They did this because they know people are out of work and need money and that they only alternative to accepting a horrible offer is to go to court ... but now courts are closed and people would have to wait over 1 year now for trials.

I went off on a liberty mutual adjuster yesterday. I told him how horrible insurance companies are for taking advantage of covid .. and he agreed. All he could say is that he has his marching orders from higher up.

Fuck car insurance companies.

'It was not a mistake': Nancy Pelosi defends her rejection of the Trump administration's $1.8 trillion stimulus offer after throwing support behind a relief package half its size

She is a troll who delayed a bigger deal because of the election period

Good news we won’t be bailing out state and cities bloated, over taxed budgets. Fuck’em, they deserve nothing

Can't argue with you and in my opinion it's just not car insurance , they do it on everything.
