What Has the Biden Administration Done For You Lately?

What about all of the news coverage showing the vaccine being loaded onto Fedex and UPS trucks? I think they ship it out as fast as they can, but the failure comes at the state and local level since they had no idea how to distribute it to the local level and get people vaccinated.
I couldn't begin to tell you how, when or where I can get vaccinated or sign up to get vaccinated or even if I'm eligible in my county. Apparently they think everyone here takes the local newspaper and if they don't they have to subscribe to the online edition to get their info, because it's not on the local county website.

Yeah I've seen photo ops but also know first hand how much had to be forced into those carriers and how it negatively impacted commerce. There was also a delay because of the temps needed for transport and storage. Logistics includes everything from production until needles in arms. That plan, if one even existed, was horrible.

Since it looks like the Biden administration will be an utter failure, I thought I'd create a placeholder for people to chime in about job losses, tax increases and discrimination for being white during the Biden disaster.

I am just happy we now have a POTUS that will bring unity and healing. I didn’t realize the love fest was needed before Joe arrived but my heart is filled with joy. I tried to kiss this black lady’s boot earlier at Publix to prove that I am aware of my white guilt. She kicked me in the face and now my eye is black. I attempted to explain The situation to my wife but unfortunately I have two black eyes now. Thanks Joe!

I've given Trump admin credit multiple times for cutting the red tape but it appears they had no plans to get it distributed quickly. The logistics part was horrible

I guess I disagree. The federal government isn't sitting on doses. They are quickly distributing to the states. Some states showed some early delays, but most seem to be running pretty smoothly now. If anything can be criticized it may be the communication between federal and state governments. But, it's hard to say for sure without being in the know. For our country to lead the way in doses administered shows me were doing something right, especially under the unique circumstances.

Masks Are Finally Required In National Park Facilities | HuffPost
I couldn’t find anything about the lake in writing, a buddy was told by TWRA agent as he launched his boat
Local news interviewed Smokey’s Ranger who said mask required in park couldn’t find it but here’s article from huff post

Frigging ridiculous. Most of the lakes around me are Corps of Engineer lakes so I’d guess the same rules apply. However not one peep out of the TPWD on this dumbassery. God Bless Texas.

Certainly not here. The Hamilton Co Health Dept obviously couldn't figure out how to distribute free money if the treasury was in danger of burning. Idiots.

Not sure why we’re not getting any priority here either, but every week for several weeks now I get an email from my Medicare provider stating “Zero new doses of first dose vaccine received this week” and they’ve not finished vaccinating their own staff yet.

No. The ACE and the NPS are completely different. Plus from the articles I’ve read the NPS is only requiring masks in indoor facilities and outdoor areas where social distancing isn’t possible. Nobody is going to make you wear a mask on your boat. Although I’ve seen some doing it.

Hamilton Co had one site for administering the vaccine, and they created a tremendous traffic jam doing it. Other counties in TN were doing 70 and perhaps even 65 yo people while Hamilton was still at 75 - not sure Hamilton has gotten below 75 yo yet. It's far more likely that the problems are the administering than the shipping, but that's what happens when the government runs things. If not for the storage temperature this would have been better handled just like the flu or any other vaccine. The limited distribution site issue is absurd. It's a government sponsored logjam like the CDC stubbornly developing the test rather than giving permission to people who knew what they were doing back when this all got started. Moderna developed their vaccine in Jan of last year and shipped the initial doses for testing in Feb. While I appreciate what the FDA does in approving drugs, perhaps less caution and more risk would have been a better path this time.

Moderna's groundbreaking coronavirus vaccine was designed in just 2 days

BS, neither carrier had an issue with delivery, the issue has been with some state and local governments slowly pushing it out. Even our local hub here keeps 7 to 9 refers on site at all times.

Can't go up too far and the average was 1.4 million last week 70% of the supply has been used up and the fact we have any vaccine at all is due to Trump and Operation Warp Speed authorizing manufacturing and guaranteeing Americans would get doses....Trump gave us 1800 Biden promised I would have already gotten 2k and lied
