The deteriorating picture nine months into the nation’s vaccination drive has angered and frustrated medical professionals who see the heartbreak as preventable. The vast majority of the dead and the hospitalized have been unvaccinated. That has proved to be a hard lesson for some families.“The problem now is we have been trying to educate based on science, but I think most of the education that is happening now is based on tragedy, personal tragedy,” said Dr.
The nation is dispensing about 900,000 shots of the vaccine per day, well below the peak of 3.4 million a day in mid-April. On Friday, a Food and Drug Administration advisory panel will meet to discuss whether the U.S. should begin dispensing booster shots of the Pfizer vaccine to shore up people’s protection.
“Now in Kentucky, one-third of new cases are under age 18,” he said. Some children brought it home from summer camp and spread it to the rest of the family, and now, “between day care and schools and school activities, and friends getting together, there are just so many exposures.” “Back in July we were almost celebrating. Little did we know,” said Ivan Melendez, public health authority for Hidalgo County. The situation has improved somewhat, with just under 300 people hospitalized for COVID-19 on Monday, but ICUs are still above 90% capacity, Melendez said.
GOP FoxNews and Facebook own this pandemic.
School is Delta’s new lab Petri dish to start pumping out new variants. It has moved inland from the cruise ships of Trump’s leadership.
54% of the population fully vaccinated. The Administration still can't get its act together on vaccinations after 7 months and 26 days. The US had 126,083 new COVID-19 cases Sep 13 2021 and more than 100,000 new cases EVERY DAY since Aug 3. 4,309,217 new cases in just 28 days.
There is a silver lining...
'Months of progress' or seasonality?
maggieNYT Thanks, maga!
Doubt it
But since TheAtlantic reported that half the hospitalization of Covid are cancer patients that test positive who cares? That’s right folks if you’re hospitalized with a heart attack BUT test positive you’re hospitalized FOR Covid
Blame it on trump!!!
Biden’s America
Filling up stadiums with no restrictions is probably not a very smart thing to do. It's about to get really bad.
😡😡😡
It is preventable, but Republicans continue to get in the way. Imagine if Trump had acted immediately, if he had responded to science’ s call for PPE, respirators, mandatory masks and rapid delivery of the vaccines. Imagine a few thousand not 650,000 American deaths. Imagine.
Cases are up but people are vaccinated. Build more hospitals and kids, go be doctors
It’s time for the White House and journalists to start calling out media propaganda spreaders, starting with Fox/ Murdoch. What do you say, ?
600k in US. Same as heart disease. Let that sink in. banthefries
maggieNYT GOPLeader F U
thanks foxnews….
maggieNYT Exceptionalism in all its glory!
Doctors need to be giving Hydroxy, Ivermectin and Regeneron. Zinc & Vitamin D. We know it works, but that’s not the agenda is it!? 🤡🌎🇺🇸🤔
Medical professionals would do well to get their own house in order too. 👍
Months of what progress?
I got an idea let the medical professionals make Tik Tok videos or they can get a career doing coding
They see it as preventable because it is preventable.
RandCoSchools its not like last year (where mask and distancing worked) IT’S WORSE. Release the numbers, enforce mask mandates and distancing. More outside learning. TimBuckleyWX BenSmartWFMY BobBuckleyWGHP DrEricDing CNN newsobserver NewsandRecord
Another day, another fear agenda 'story'.
Funny I was in the hospital for a small injury, and there were absolutely nothing going on in the ICU. Nurses were standing around, laughing, being normal. So I don't know exactly where these places are you people keep talkng about.
They literally make money off of illness. How's all this working out for Australians?
In other words, the vaccines didn’t help at all
They’re tired of getting kicked in the groin
Nothing stopped the waves of Covid. Not lockdowns. Not social distancing. Not mask mandates. Not the availability of vaccines. It isn't going away. This is your life now. Eventually every human being will be exposed. Get vaccinated and live your life.
it's a pandemic of the unvaccinated. Thank republicans for that.
How is it preventable? By staying home for ever? You guys have no clue how to fix this, stop saying that.
“Progress”
Antivaxxers are killing 2x to 3x more Republicans.
I live in Florida. Things are finally starting to get better down here.
And which of those are deaths due to something outside of Covid but yet the hospital is claiming they had Covid?
70% of the population vaccinated but cases up 200% year over year.
