OT: New CDC director says they do not know how much vaccine they have
On Mon, 25 Jan 2021 07:34:54 -0800 (PST), trader_4 posted for all of us to digest... How is this possible? The CDC director says that they don't know how much vaccine the federal govt has. There are only two suppliers, how can they not know how much vaccine they have right now, how much is expected this week, next week, etc? One thing for sure, Gen Warpspeed was sure full of BS when he was interviewed by 60 Minutes. He claimed that his team had this all under control, that they had put in place a world class logistics computer system that integrated into all the disparate healthcare systems across the land, that would track each vaccine from manufacturer to where and when it was administered. He made it sound like FedEX tracking. I knew when watching it that wasn't going to happen, that with everyone from CVS to the local health dept giving shots there was no way it could be tracked anywhere near that well, that you'd never integrate getting data from all those different systems, even if you tried. But I grossly over estimated their competence, since now we just heard that they don't even know how much vaccine they have period. Maybe I'm missing something, but I would think a phone call to the two companies would answer that. Like X mil in inventory, Y mil shipped in the last two days, Z mil expected to ship next week. Or is team Biden now lying, trying to make what they inherited look worse than it really is? You answered your question in the last line. They have no clue to what to do. Now back to a.h.r -- Tekkie |

Now back to a.h.r -- Tekkie No, you just leaped to that conclusion because it's the answer that you want, regardless of whether it's true or not. It's how you Trumpets got so divorced from reality to begin with. Something was obviously very wrong before Biden arrived. The Trump administration said they were holding 20 mil vaccines in reserve for second shots. Then the UK started focusing on using all available to give the first shot, meaning they would not be able to give the second to most people in the 2 to 3 week window. President elect Biden then said he would release the US reserve too. Then a few weeks later, the Trump administration took up Biden's recommendation, HHS Sec Azar held a press conference and said they were releasing the reserves. Two days later he resigned, saying he could no longer be part of a Trump administration after the Capitol seige. And a couple weeks later, governors of states were saying they were informed there is nothing more coming, there were no reserves. |
