But I dont get how trying to discredit the camera persons intentions is Corriks FIRST criticism of whats happening, lol
It's an observation. Person so worried about the virus that they are following someone around closely trying to record them to show they somehow take the virus more serious and care about it? Pretty dumb.

I mean, the dude should be wearing a mask and people who aren't are just being dumb at this point. That's a given.

However, I can't help but notice the irony there.

What the fuck are you even talking about lol. I complain all the time about people around me who are conservatives that don't take the pandemic serious. Nice try!

It's weird, too, since the guy just flat out contradicts himself:

Trump administration officials are in discussions with Moderna about speeding up the coronavirus vaccination process by only giving people half the recommended dose of the company's vaccine, a top adviser said Sunday.

Moncel Slaoui, the chief science adviser for Operation Warp Speed, said there is evidence that giving people between the ages of 18 and 55 two half-doses "induces identical immune response" to the normal 100 microgram dose.

During an interview with Margaret Brennan on CBS's "Face the Nation," Slaoui said the strategy "means exactly achieving the objective of immunizing double the number of people with the doses we have."

But Slaoui has also strongly advocated against the idea that people need only one shot instead of the current two-dose regimen, so it's not clear how giving people two half-doses would be different.

One possibility, recently adopted in the U.K., is to prioritize giving everyone a first dose, delaying a second dose by as long as three months.

Slaoui said he doesn't see that happening in the U.S., and questioned the science behind the delay.

Both Moderna and Pfizer were authorized in a two-dose form, and Slaoui said trials show the second dose gives an immune response 10 times higher than the first dose.

"We have no data after one dose," Slaoui said. Delaying the vaccination schedule "without any data I think would not be responsible," he said.

EDIT: It's basically saying "No, I don't think one shot is enough. But also, what if we halved that one shot."

Sterling was done with Trump's bullshit 2 months ago and he's beyond done with it now.

https://twitter.com/justinbaragona/status/1346190758504759300?s=09

Beyond this clip, he has basically just been bringing up every single statement Trump has said and retweeted and is explaining why every single on of them is a lie.

He even had to explain that "Ron Raffensperger", whom Trump claims is the SoS' brother...is not a real person and doesn't exist.

Glad DC is doing this, but the fact that were in a position where doses are in danger of expiring means that were failing at using vaccines quickly enough. If this is a regular occurrence we should be expanding the categories of people being vaccinated until were supply limited.
This is common with these vaccines due to the refrigeration. There are multiple doses in each bottle and they dont want to put the bottle back in refrigeration so if anyone cancelled or postponed or no showed that day they will have extra doses to use.

Yeah on the vaccine front, we now know we're not alone in having a completely fucked rollout of these vaccines.

Seems one of the big problems is everyone is choosing too narrow of a portion of the population and people backing out on appointments or refusing the vaccine is leaving a lot of excess.

They need to just let anyone have it who wants it. The more people vaccinated the less spread to maybe get to the older population also

They should definitely prioritize based on age (which is a clear and unambiguous category that you can make as large as needed to ensure full demand), but yeah to the extent that prioritization causes a bottleneck it should be relaxed.

Purdue was elected in 2014 and Loeffler was appointed. Neither of them are in the Senate by virtue of winning an election in 2020. Actually, I'm not sure how Purdue is still a senator - would have thought his term ended yesterday. I guess the governor sent him back as an interim appointment until his seat can be filled by election?

Oh hmm, I'm reading that Purdue's seat is in fact vacant as of yesterday. If I'm understanding this right, Governor Kemp can appoint someone to fill that seat until tomorrow's election is certified, which probably won't be for a few days at least.

Now, the constitution says that a senator must be a resident of the state he represents at the time of his election, but this is an appointment, not an election. So, Governor Kemp, I propose that you nominate.......Donald J. Trump! to be Georgia's senator until the winner of tomorrow's election can be determined. Then Trump can personally argue his case in the Senate on Wednesday.

Perdue's term expired on January 3, leaving the seat vacant until a winner is determined by the January 5 runoff.[90]

Yep. That would be the indicator that it's time to move, because it would start to death spiral from there I think.
