i don't find this argument highly convincing, but these are very smart, very knowledgeable people and it's, at a minimum, a consideration.

I don't think we should do anything that wasn't tested.
We have data showing what one shot did. This isn't like we are repurposing another drug

Pretty sure the data said it sucks which is why there is a booster
Nope.

Hit me w/ a link my dude
I mean the data is in all these stories of people talking about the one dose idea.

The vaccine currently requires two doses administered 28 days apart, with the initial dose providing 80 per cent protection

After reading that the idea still seems short sighted to me.

Congrats to Andrew Cuomo - BidenVoter Hero for launching a "task force" 9 to 10 months into the global pandemic to study testing availability in minority dominated areas in New York.   

The pinnacle of leadership.

Phone call last night from my fiancé who works at hospital: "CVS has 30 doses that will have to be discarded today if not used. Do you want to meet me at 730p to get your shot?"

This rollout is going so well.

Why? We hoped for a 50 plus percent effective vaccine and data shows one shot is 80% effective. Nothing points to a booster being delayed as a negative thing.

I've been pinging all my medical people lately so I'm top of mind when this happens to them.

Some states are leaving it up to hundreds of counties.

Pretty brave to protest masks by walking through a grocery store.  Probably get a congressional medal of freedom.

Sorry if already discussed but how long until a cottage industry pops up to forge vaccination certificates so antivaxxers can evade vaccine requirements for travel, work, school?  I envision them styling themselves as heroes similar to those who forged identity papers for Jewish people escaping from the Nazis.

The GLOBAL pandemic rages on.

China is doing great though, but another crack team from the WHO is gonna try again to figure out just what happened.  They won't, but by gosh they're gonna try really really hard and possibly send not one but two very sternly written letters to the Chinese Communist Party this time.   A good time for some of those folks to do some series damage on those WHO issued credit cards. 

First stop:  Kang-Long-Tai-Zi then off to the Wuhan JZ Club

Just another word of advice for the WHO, take a face mask.  Not for the virus, China has that whipped.   The Air Quality in that region is very unhealthy, it was also very unhealthy yesterday and will be very unhealthy tomorrow.

But people like cRusty think that people wear masks because of diseases, how stupid, there are no diseases in China . . . it's because of some of the worst air particulate pollution in the world (if not the worst.  Every single day, day after day . . . China is your friend, and super super serious about the environment).

this is probably the least important outcome of the stumbling start to our vaccination effort, but it would seem to me that there is a lot of opportunity for vaccination providers to sell/gift doses, either after they legit expire some doses, or under the guise of having expired some.

They didn't have to throw away crap, that was a choice. There is no law against them finding 14 randos to give those vaccines to.

It was a company mandate, not a law. The best explanation I could get was that they’ll only give it to those with a certain insurance coverage that can only be had by people in nursing homes, and that there’s strict inventory control on any unused chips that go back to the bosses (who eventually trash them). So a boss could ‘chip me with the ones that’d be trashed, but I don’t have that plug.

It’s rough ridin' crazy that the chip’rs can’t get friends and family in for those chips, or even there being a public lottery for people to be on call to come get them if the scheduled people don’t take them in time.

At some point, these people need to face involuntary manslaughter charges for letting their vaccines expire.
