Meanwhile the “president” is having an anti Fox News, undermining the election, Biden’s dumb Twitter meltdown right now.

Not unbelievable at all. We've had a psycho in charge of the country. It only took four years to bring this country to it's knees. I'm a bitch but I hope every damned one of those people who supported and voted for that con burn in hell for what they have done.

I just heard that this morning. Not so funny, but I am retired, fixed income, not high, and Social Security, I have donated to Doctors Without Borders!
I just posted on another thread that, we, CA, NJ, NY, CT, and others finance the poorer states, particularly Kentucky who their Senator, Moscow Mitch, totally ignores. Low in jobs, education, healthcare, etc.. way to go MM!!

And yet many Americans still refuse to wear their masks and/or social distance... I'm a bitch but I hope every damned one of those people who supported and voted for that con burn in hell for what they have done. What about the ones who do not support Trump but refuse to social distance? Should they burn in hell too? By this time we wouldn't have a raging epidemic if the trumpers had not supported that asshole. I do hope karma bites those in the butt that refuse to wear masks and isolate but the real evil is those trumpers that are so stupid that they believe corona is a hoax. And most of those who are refusing to wear masks and isolate are...wait for it, TRUMPERS. |

I live in another one of the states that pays in more to the feds than we get back, and I think that like with any “charitable donation” we should get to choose where that money goes! Personally, I would send every dollar into education so hopefully in the future people would stop being so freaking dumb when it comes to continuing to re-elect hateful trolls like him! |

I’d really truly like to hear trump supporters defending this and all the baby-like behavior of him over the past week. Not by blaming others/the dems/bringing up past behaviors. But to defend THIS without deflection. And that it is AOk with them. We are going to be rudderless in this pandemic for the next 2 plus months. If y’all think it’s bad now, just wait. 😥

It is now the number three cause of death in my state. A huge percentage of science deniers are also Trump supporters. They are only digging their heels in more because of the "rigged election". |

Oh wanted to add 3,884 reported cases yesterday in a state with only a 2 million population and most of it is along the Wasatch Front.

Those deniers won’t believe that they really died from Covid and will say it was actually from something else so really only 6% of those from Covid. So want to bang my head against a wall. |

My husband heard that the vaccine wouldn’t actually be distributed here but in countries that are in worst shape first. He was rather annoyed since we are making it but Biden would give to others first. Maybe we will be seeing it first if we keep getting worse . It’s so frustrating. |

Joe Biden isn't even president and he's already being blamed. WTF is wrong with people. |

It will be distributed by the states and likely to first responders and nursing homes first. |

Our country is not making it. A private company is. They are free to sell it to anyone they want. I swear, if I owned the company, I'd be inclined NOT to send it to countries who are not even willing to try known, effective preventative measures first. So irritating every one they put in danger by their self-centered beliefs. Yeah, I'm looking at you USA. Trouble is that there are a whole lot of people who are doing everything they can to stay safe and not share germs, if they must go out, right here in the good old USA. Only a few trips to buy food and I mean maybe five, I've been in since March 13, 2020. Did PT in summer, result of five week hospitalization Apr 19- May 22.. I've done my best! |

I think that report was misleading and fear it will politicize an organization I have a tremendous amount of respect for. Doctors without Borders has been incredibly active during the pandemic in many, many countries - including Switzerland, Belgium, Norway, Italy, France, Spain etc. Yes they came to the US over the summer - based on their website they're not actually active in the United States presently. It's a pandemic and they're experts on epidemiology. I just need to look at any current infection graph to see how horribly we're doing with COVID - Doctor's without Borders unfortunately can't help some of the hardest hit areas of the US and they don't want to follow basic protocols to try and prevent the spread. I mean if we can't stop people from going to a 5,000 person rodeo, there's not a whole lot they can do for us - although they may be back to set up field hospitals if we can't get our shit together. FYI info on their work in Europe for those interested. www.doctorswithoutborders.org/what-we-do/news-stories/story/msf-steps-response-coronavirus-pandemic-europe |

The Republicans have turned the US into a third world country. Wow just wow! Unfortunately, the US has been on a downward slope for a long time. The poverty that I have seen when I have visited several states has shown me the rate of declining living conditions. I was on a clean up team, 2 years after Katrina and the situations were horrific. The filth that people were living in was disgusting. Being from Canada, I had only seen poverty in a few islands but not even to the extreme that there was in Louisiana. A friend's dd is working on Skid Row in Los Angeles and it is bad there. There is poverty in Canada but perhaps due to the colder climate, the living conditions are not as extreme as it can get in a southern area of America. Bugs get killed in the cold of winter, but, if you don't have winter, the bugs only grow bigger. I don't know what the answer is. Like revirdsuba99 said, I also live in a province that pays much more than what it gets back, in the way of funding from the taxes that we pay. Ontario supports the Atlantic provinces quite a bit. My husband heard that the vaccine wouldn’t actually be distributed here but in countries that are in worst shape first. He was rather annoyed since we are making it but Biden would give to others first. Maybe we will be seeing it first if we keep getting worse . It’s so frustrating. Don't blame President-Elect Biden for anything. He has inherited a huge mess and he knew how America was when he left office just 4 years ago. The vaccine makers are independent from government. |

Where in the world did he hear that? It’s not at all what I’ve heard the past 2 days. Not even close. |
