At least you’ve got a list. Nothing here... more like Operation Snail Speed.

Considering the nature of the virus, and commparing to the past, this is indeed moving along fine..."warp speed" might be overly optomistic, but I certainly understand naming it that way to communicate the urgency.
The Chinese government sucks, this is all their doing and purposeful, in that I do not have any doubts.

The State of New Mexico is handling the distribution here. All residents were requested to register and enter personal data which determines priority.
I feel sooooo much better knowing the State of New Mexico is handling this.
If I receive vaccination it will be a miracle.

My brother is involved in operation warp speed and is in charge of overseeing PHX and Tucson. Initially it was supposed to be distributed at the federal level by the military and administered at armories, recruitment centers, or any other federal property that could quickly be modified... The politicians raised holy hell figuring that credit would go to the executive branch, so for a change they were for state's rights in administering the vaccine.

Gotta agree with you, Charlie. I’m the guy that makes fun of conspiracy theories— but not this one. Ordered by the CPC and administered by the PLA. Very good for business, too. China is about the the only country in the world that has profited from the virus. Helps to cement “relationships” with current and potential client states, too. Plus all those nice loans to “help” them out of a bad situation. Does our intelligence apparatti know? Of course they do, chapter and verse. Why haven’t the beans been spilt? Because the gummint does not want to deal with the panic and the anger that would result. The word is out and the word is “Mums the word!” (Yeah, I know three words. Sue me.)

Yes, the Chinese government doesn't have to worry about elections, that frees them up to be able to look forward to the next 50 years as they desire dominating other nations. It is just so sad that they have so many accomplices,foreign and domestic.

Wife was a our biggest Supermarket last week. Bulletin at pharmacy Sign Up for Corona Vacine, wife says there was no space to sign up. All filled up. Drumrolllllllllll! Town got 200 doses, Operation Warp Speed, turned into Operation Donkey Kong Speed. I think the entire roll out of CV vaccines is a bloody mess all over the U.S. What's most disturbing to me is that as I understood the Care's Act, there were billions of dollars spent supporting the accelerated development and production of the vaccines by these private pharmaceutical companies. As I understand it all companies developing vaccines accepted the Cares Act monies, except Pfizer. Now we seem to not be in a position to demand/expect that these same companies supply vaccines to the U.S.A. only first. They were free to accept orders from other nations around the world. I fully appreciate the need for everyone to receive the CV vaccine regardless of where they live in the world. But it seems to me that any company which accepted Care's Act monies for speedy development and production of vaccines should be obligated to fully supply the U.S.A. needs first. Please correct me if I have an erroneous view/understanding of the Cares Act and vaccine development/production. I understand that the form of the 2nd polio vaccine was super conducive to administer in a much looser control fashion. I actually received my pink colored sugar cube style 2nd generation polio vaccine unannounced before hand in a Fort Worth, Tx. movie theater! Before the movie started house lights were turned on and health officials were at the edge of the theater's stage ready to issue the vaccine. In a matter of a few minutes (probably in the time frame upcoming movie previews would have been shown) a full theater filed forward, received and consumed their vaccine and the movie then proceeded with little to no delay! The sugar cube polio vaccine was also massively distributed in school gyms/auditoriums/lunchrooms without issues as well back then. That's my favorite vaccine/flu shot memory!

Most clear headed people would agree with you, but there are some among us all that think that is some sort of immoral approach, and that the reverse is true. We pay the freight and stand in line to be the last.

I appreciate people's refrain from sliding down this rabbit hole...but let's steer the ship away completely.
Over here, the NHS will contact people when it's their time.

It's worth remembering that vaccinations are typically not big money-makers for pharmaceutical companies. To them, you're worth FAR more sick than you are vaccinated. That fact kind of pokes a hole in the vaccine conspiracies.
Then there's the fact that we have genetically traced the virus well enough to know for certain that it was not lab-created.

They sent 200 Vacines for a town of 15,000, everyday our Governor goes on TV at the Price Is Right time and expounds on any and everything, still no shot, Wife is getting pissed as she likes The Price Is Right, me too give a guess as to his political party, then goes to the Inuagration with his son still no Vacine, I canceled a visit to my heart Dr because of not wanting to rub shoulders in waiting room. Wife and I talked it will probably summer before we get the needle. ( Hi I’m from the Government and I’m here to help you)
