So where should the US fall on the priority list?

Where was it going to be before the executive order.?

Regardless,  I dont see how folks that think the Constitution is important should be happy about executive orders

The UK, Russia and China are moving ahead with vaccinating their own citizens.  I don't believe any of them were offering it up to other countries first and I don't blame them nor would I have expected them to.   

We should definitely aspire to be like Russia and China.

Agencies are reporting that SoCal is above 85% ICU capacity. “Allegedly.”

In Idaho they show the number of COVID ICU patients increasing but the number of available ICU beds as being constant.

Either the numbers are bullshit or they are somehow able to reconfigure hospitals to provide more ICU capacity.

I'm sure it's the first scenario, especially in the third most Republican state in the U.S.

Sorry, my point wasn't clear.

If anyone had something to gain by falsely inflating COVID numbers, it would be the Dems. So the chances of deep-red Idaho inflating the numbers are very slim.

Why do you do so much for another man's birthday?

It was the only way he could justify golfing and gambling during the lockdown.

I thought Trump solved COVID and we wouldn't be dealing with it after November 3.

To be fair, this article doesn't really explore the "why" of the decision not to buy more from Pfizer. And that "why" is pretty important here, as this was a decision made in late summer. The problem is that "why" could be many things. Incompetence or ignorance are certainly on the list of possibilities, but so are other things like uncertainty about supply chain, storage, or distribution capacity. Being that this decision was made in late summer, it could've been not wanting to put all our eggs in one basket when other vaccines may have ended up being more effective or less difficult to produce/transport/store/administer, etc...

Yeah but, Trump!

Wasn't  Pfizer not part of operation warp speed?  So there is your why.

Also a possibility. I really really dislike the current administration for a ton of things, and the fact that some of the real possible reasons for this decision could be score settling or just ignorance speaks volumes about my faith in this administration compared to basically any other. But, that article still remains very one dimensional without exploring any real reasons as to why that decision was made. And it's still possible that those reasons were valid.

So the lady my daughter works with has tested positive. So did her daughter (who I work with) and her husband. Husband is doing so poorly they took him to the ER this afternoon. 
 

we’ve had two other people on campus test positive, though administration hasn’t said a thing about it yet. That’s pretty irresponsible as we have teachers that are still coming to school and just this afternoon discussed plans for a Christmas drive thru celebration with kids and families.

my daughter is getting tested Thursday; wife and I are getting tested Friday.
