2) Look it’s a hard choice between #COVID19 vaccine vs another disease. I get it. But this is what **good govt planning** would have made a world of difference. Logistics is all about planning. If you fail to plan, you plan to fail, as they say.
3) Thyroid Eye 👁 Disease is also known as GRAVE’S disease. I know several friends who have it. It’s a progressive illness. This really sucks. thyroid.org/graves-eye-dis…
4) “The Company currently anticipates that this drug supply shortage will begin at the end of December and could last through the first quarter.”

2) “New mutation, or variants, was first detected in southeast England in September and is becoming more prevalent in new cases.”

But there is no evidence at this time to suggest the new strain is more deadly or able to elude vaccines designed to defeat it.
3) “We have alerted the World Health Organization and are continuing to analyze the available data to improve our understanding,”

Tragic—a mother lost **both** her sister and her 13 year old son Peyton to #COVID19. The bereaved mom took the bold step to publicly share the chilling images of her son’s blood-spattered hospital room in a bid to urge Americans to take COVID seriously.

2) “Stephanie Franek, 44, watched as doctors battled to save her son Peyton Baumgarth's life as the treatment to oxygenate his blood failed.
The youngster passed away just 6 days after developing symptoms of infection when he became extremely fatigued & his nail beds turned blue.
3) The mom-of-two endured another Covid loss when her sister Cyndi Crawford, 57, died five weeks after Peyton in the ICU.
Stephanie, a nurse from St Louis, Missouri, said: "One loss would have been heartbreaking alone but these two have completely shattered our hearts."

📍Whoa—Pfizer says Trump admin has stopped giving destinations for “millions more doses sitting in our warehouses”. Trump HHS is allowing #COVID19 vaccines to *just sit there* unused. Is this—

1) Incompetence/negligence?
2) Throttling for 2nd dose?
3) Hoarding for other reason? Image
2) Multiple states are reporting cuts to their promised vaccine allotments. Still unclear why. Florida says it’s production delays but no other states are citing that reasons for their huge cuts google.com/amp/s/www.ajc.…
3) the cuts are pretty severe - from 30-50% reductions to promised vaccine deliveries. Weird. google.com/amp/s/nymag.co… Image
