Dear @WHCOS - please clarify, when you say "ALL adults"

Do you also mean everyone incarcerated in the Bureau of Prisons?

As of a week ago, less than 10% had been vaccinated in Federal Prison and the CDC said all people in prison should be prioritized?
Incarcerated people are 3X more likely to die from #Covid_19 and 7X more likely to contract the virus, they cannot self-isolate, socially distance, or look after their own health care....NONE were sentenced to die from COVID

Please clarify, will EVERY ADULT have access?
Here are the numbers from a week ago:

So just did a back of the envelope calculation - BOP says they update their vaccination stats daily and it seems like they have 12,223 out of 124,679 vaccinated bop.gov/coronavirus/

Please clarify @WHCOS
Here is more from the @CDCgov on the subject of prioritization @WHCOS

Folks

Homicide and Domestic Violence rates are indeed up, and have been since the beginning of the pandemic

When you hear law enforcement sources saying it is b/c of bail...or other reforms, please ask them for their evidence

I follow this stuff pretty closely 1/
1. The increase in homicides has been nearly universal across most U.S. cities while court practices in each state were wildly disparate - which means attributing the cause to unique changes in one jurisdiction is almost always NONSENSE

theintercept.com/2021/02/21/202…
2. Crime and violent crime overall are DOWN not UP....Homicide and Domestic Violence in major cities is up...which is certainly problematic.....but we should actually know what we are fighting before we "crack down" based on law enforcement suspicions

I sure hope every adult in the United States includes people incarcerated in our prisons @POTUS

Currently, the vast majority of folks in the BOP have not been vaccinated and many states have not prioritized incarcerated people at all

At least 2,474 people have died
That rate of death is around 3X the rate of death in the general population

People in prison can't socially distance, can't self-isolate, and can't look after their own health care

Nobody was sentenced to die from #COVID19 and we have the means to SAVE LIVES
About a week ago, I did a back of the envelope calculation for the Federal Bureau of Prisons @POTUS

It seems like they have only vaccinated 12,223 out of 124,679 incarcerated people in federal prisons bop.gov/coronavirus/

You do understand there is a whole genre of American music *called JAZZ * where the saxophone is featured prominently, right?
Perhaps you have heard of Charlie "Bird" Parker?
Probably another 100 songs from 50's Rock & Roll that are considered cornerstone songs that feature the sax prominently

138 Human Beings have died from #COVID19 in Michigan's prisons

* One of the highest prison death rates in the country
* Over 3X the death rate in the general population

#VaccinateNow #LetMIPeopleGO
For those who don't know, Michigan is vaccinating people in prison over 65 currently, about 4k have been vaccinated.

But according to the CDC, everyone in prison is at high-risk and should be prioritized
People in prison cannot self-isolate, cannot socially distance, and cannot look over their own health care needs....here is a very strong article making the moral and substantive case for vaccinations in New York

Look back, I said - since the beginning - people should steer far clear of the Lincoln Project, that it was a grift and that it would most likely be used to elect moderate GOP in the future
Now, I did not predict this awfulness.....but, I knew they were not actually allies
But a lot of people got mad at me for saying they weren't actually allies.
