.@SenSanders has finally addressed those memes. Here's what the Vermont senator had to say.

@christicarras has the story. latimes.com/entertainment-…
Sanders was amused by the viral image from Biden's inauguration.

“Yeah, I’ve seen ‘em,” the 79-year-old politician began. “What’s been really nice is the woman who made the mittens lives in Essex Junction, Vermont."

"She is a schoolteacher and a very, very nice person, and she has been somewhat overwhelmed.”

“I was just sitting there, trying to keep warm,” Sanders told Meyers, “trying to pay attention to what was going on.”

Sanders was also asked about the mysterious envelope he was holding: latimes.com/entertainment-…

How does Biden's inauguration compare to Trump's?

Let's look at them in terms of ratings, and performers.
latimes.com/entertainment-…
The combined total for cable channels CNN, MSNBC and Fox, and networks ABC, CBS and NBC is 29.6M. Viewers seemed to prefer one of those outlets over the others.

Now let's move on to Trump.
latimes.com/entertainment-…
Biden's audience was larger than the figure for Trump’s ceremony, which averaged 28M viewers.

But, Biden’s total audience will fall below the 37.8M who watched Obama’s in 2009.

Now, let's talk about performers: latimes.com/entertainment-…

In the spring, California was so successful in keeping COVID-19 at bay that at least one expert called it the “California miracle.”

So when cases surged in November, health experts and residents struggled to understand what went wrong.

latimes.com/california/sto…
Now, with the crisis showing signs of easing, the main reason for the surge is coming into focus: a false confidence that the pandemic could be kept in check.

For the public, that complacency showed up in fatigue over safety restrictions. latimes.com/california/sto…
By Christmas, so many patients struggling to breathe needed to be hospitalized in California that emergency rooms in large swaths of the state closed to ambulances as doctors stuffed patients in hospital corridors. latimes.com/california/sto…

The city of Long Beach this week expanded distribution of COVID-19 vaccines to food workers, the first group of essential workers in Los Angeles County outside the healthcare industry to be offered the critical shots.

latimes.com/california/sto…
Vaccinations are administered by appointment only at the Long Beach Convention Center, a mass vaccination site opened by the city Tuesday that has the capacity to vaccinate 1,800 people a day.

latimes.com/california/sto…
Long Beach has its own health department and, therefore, its own vaccine supply. Garcia said it makes sense that his city — which is larger than many other major metropolitan areas, including Cleveland, Oakland and Pittsburgh — stands on its own.
