  1. *stop saying pfizers vaccine. Its by Biontech, a german company! Wtf? It was developed in Mainz Germany, not the US. Pfizer only supported with money.!* … !!!!!!

    1. And therefore, this vaccine is not part of operation warp speed.
      It was supported by millions of Euros from German taxpayers and without any US-government funds.
      The vaccine is ready now because they started to develop it in January, long before Trump even admitted that there’s a pandemic.

  2. America is

    23 in education.
    25 in democracy index.
    34 in raising family index.
    37 in healthcare.
    No high-speed train.
    Highest number of homeless people.
    Highest number of incarcerated people.
    78% of people live paycheck to paycheck.

    Stock market is not economy of Americans! Where 90% of money belongs to top 10% of the population, it’s wallet for the rich.

    Let’s talk like adults, instead of name calling.

    I have left the proof on my playlist, if you would like to check!

    Let’s make our country better together. .. ..

  3. USA🇺🇸 has been outta the loop for at least one year. Our allies especially Angela won’t even talk to Donald. WTF. Here comes the virus. AGAIN. We need help

    1. Meanwhile, Biden has already been reaching out to leaders from across the planet, although the new administration doesn’t take office until January, they aren’t wasting any time, this is too important to put it off any longer.

    2. Australia zero cases… We crushed the second wave…
      We listened to the scientific community….
      We sure didn’t listen to the rightwing politicians here…
      We have our fair share of tRumpist types , they were shouted 👇 down….
      We don’t like our folks dyin’ in these here parts…

    3. I think it was Donald not wanting to talk to Angela….! (He spoke badly about her behind her back – without any reason). Well, hope is on its way. Keep obeying all the safety measures (masks, social distancing etc) during the next few months. I am quite positive that this new Biontech/Pfizer vaccine will be successful. Help is on its way.

    4. @Saba Well we all know how Trump feels about women, much less a woman in power. Angela is currently the leader of the free world. With a background in sciences. She took control of her country. They had pushback of course, but most sucked it up, He failed his country on this pandemic. 9 months later there is Still no plan. He has lost interest so, ‘it is what it is’.
      I hope you are right on the vaccine.

    5. @ckendall67 They have a covid taskforce already started. He is certainly hitting the floor running. He has a whole lot of challenges and if both candidates in Georgia lose, a majority republican senate. That is a brutal position to be in from the start. I do hope that the Senators will soon be able to stop kissing butt and start doing something. Anything.

    1. Science might not always have all the answers but it doesn’t stop them from continuing the work that’s necessary.

  4. Excellent Discourse. Calm, Collected and Professional. Best of all not weaponised with Political Spin. Cheers from Michael. Australia.

  5. I am sorry to disappoint some of your change has come to America, Joe Biden will be the next president 2021 for #4 year We pray, O Lord, that you will heal this nation. Give peace and comfort to those who are in sorrow. Give healing and strength to those who have suffered injury , 2024 presidential election will be a women []

    1. Pfizer’s vaccine is not even part of operation warp speed.
      It was developed in Germany by a German laboratory called BioNTech, supported by millions of Euros and without any US-government funds.
      The vaccine is ready now because they started to develop it in January, long before Trump even admitted that there’s a pandemic.

    1. True. Biontech was supported with 450 million Euros by the German government in September. Biontech already had 20 vaccine candidates in March and continued with the one the most promising.

  7. Molly’s experience in NY has become the new reality in El Paso, TX. Bodies are piling up so fast that refrigerated cargo trailers are being used as makeshift morgues, with more being put to use every day.
    As a retired firefighter EMT what is happening in my community and all across America is appalling. How was it possible for the most powerful scientifically and industrialized nation to be staggered by a disease that many third world nations have managed with fewer resources yet better success. Even the most basic level of care by an ordinary bystander would excel the levels of our federal governmental response.
    The Dark Winter is coming, just on the horizon. We, as a society, must heed the basic policies of stopping the spread of Covid. Wear the best available face mask you can find or afford at all times in public. Maintain the minimum 6′ to 8′ social distancing, even more is always best. Carry hand sanitizer with you in public and use before touching your face or when removing and after removing your mask. Wear long sleeve shirts, long pants and eye glasses to minimize skin and eye exposure. Wash your hands with soap and water and mentally sing the Happy Birthday song while soaping up then again when rinsing. Change clothing as soon as you get home and wash hands.
    Yes, it’s a lot to do. As any firefighter can tell you, this isn’t even a basic Level 1 decon procedure that good medical practices require when handling patients with a communicable disease. In reality, every person you encounter in public during a community mass Covid outbreak, must be a suspected carrier.
    Finally, be real. Covid is not the flu. Many that contract Covid will be asymptomatic. That does not mean your body will not sustain damage. Your kidneys, liver, heart and lungs can suffer fairly serious damage without any outward signs or symptoms. Only a complete blood labwork panel test can detect those types of damages. Far too many people that tested positive for Covid fail to get blood lab tests, either because they don’t have insurance or they assume they are okay. For many, that could be a very grave mistake. Preventative care can make a real difference in quality of life.

    1. I fully agree to your very intelligent post. I wish US-citizens all the very best. May we all stick to the safety measures and overcome this pandemic. I am quite hopeful that this Biontech/Pfizer vaccine will be successful. Greets from Germany

  8. Jeremiah 6:19- “Hear, O earth: behold, I am bringing disaster on this people, . . . Because they have not listened to My words, And as for My law, they have rejected it also.

    Hosea 6:1- “Come, let us return to the Lord. For He has torn us, but He will heal us; He has wounded us, but He will bandage us.

    Lamentations 5:21- Restore us to You, O Lord, that we may be restored; Renew our days as of old,

    Psalms 6:4- Return, O Lord, rescue my soul; Save me because of Your lovingkindness.

    Malachi 3:7- “. . . Return to Me, and I will return to you,” says the Lord of hosts. “But you say, ‘How shall we return?’

    2 Chronicles 7:14- and My people who are called by My name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
