Britain begins Pfizer vaccine shots, launching the West’s first mass coronavirus inoculation effort — The Washington Post



Trump administration officials passed when Pfizer offered months ago to sell the U.S. more vaccine doses.

The government was in July given the option to request 100 million to 500 million additional doses. But despite repeated warnings from Pfizer officials that demand could vastly outstrip supply and amid urges to pre-order more doses, the Trump administration turned down the offer, according to several people familiar with the discussions.

In a statement, Pfizer said that “any additional doses beyond the 100 million are subject to a separate and mutually acceptable agreement,” and that “the company is not able to comment on any confidential discussions that may be taking place with the U.S. government.”

The bulk of the global supply of vaccines has already been claimed by wealthy countries like the United States, Canada, Britain and countries in Europe, leading to criticism that people in low- and middle-income countries will be left behind. The United States has declined to participate in a global initiative, called Covax, that is meant to make a vaccine available globally.

The trump administration in a nutshell.

Isolationist bunglers, who try to look tough to paper over their original mistakes.

Horribly inept.

It also exposes the lie that Operation warp speed was responsible for the vaccines.

Lie upon lie.

Sike naw, hopefully this is the beginning of the end of a very challenging and tragic period in all of our lives. Who knows how this distribution process will go or how long it will take to get “back to normal” but it does feel good that we might be turning an important corner very soon.
