Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
... Jen Psaki has been on the job for for 10 days, She has not missed a daily press briefing. When policy is determined, she will give answers to the questions asked. Nothing is being hidden.Gruesome sells CA doses off... Cuomo tries to blame Trump for his own mistake of putting infect Americans in rest homes and the deaths that incurred... pass the blame liberals WE aren't buying the bullshit.
Gov. DeSantis Himself Fact-Checks Jen Psaki After Claim That Florida Is Underutilizing Vaccines
Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has no problem taking on the White House press secretary when it comes to a disagreement about coronavirus vaccination efforts in the Sunshine State.
White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki was asked Monday about a comment from DeSantis saying that the Biden administration is off base when it talks about adding the Federal Emergency Management Agency to the mix of vaccine sites. DeSantis called the idea a “big mistake.”
“I saw some of this stuff Biden’s putting out, that he’s going to create these FEMA camps. I can tell you, that’s not necessary in Florida,” DeSantis said on Jan. 19, according to the Tampa Times. “All we need is more vaccine. Just get us more vaccine.”
“To try and reinvent the wheel at this point I think would be a big mistake,” he said.
Psaki snarked back when given the chance, according to a transcript of her Monday briefing posted by the White House.
“And I will note — because we’re data first here, fact first here — they’ve only distributed about 50 percent of the vaccines that they have been given in Florida. So, clearly, they have a good deal of the vaccine. That supply will need to continue to increase as they are able to effectively reach people across the state,” she said.
“But part of the challenge, as we were just talking about, is not just having the supply — that’s pivotal — but also having vaccinators and having vaccine distribution places, and doing it in a way that’s reaching people where they are and meeting local communities. And the president is going to be focused on that in a bipartisan manner, regardless of what any elected official may have to say,” she said.
DeSantis wasn’t letting Psaki’s implied criticism — that his state was failing to deliver vaccinations — to go unchallenged. He laid out the facts in a statement posted to Twitter, noting that it was important to have second doses on hand of the two-dose vaccines.
“The insinuation that Florida is underutilizing vaccines is totally disingenuous,” DeSantis wrote . “Florida is number one in the country among the top 10 most populous states for vaccine doses per capita. Additionally, Florida is averaging more than 300,000 first doses per week but we are not going to divert second doses away from our seniors.
“We are also number one in the nation by far for vaccinations of seniors, as Florida has vaccinated more than 1 million seniors 65 and older to date,” he wrote.
“If we are given additional first doses, we are ready to double our output. The possibilities are endless here in Florida, but it is contingent on us getting additional supply from the federal government.”
He isn't vaccinating felons - GITMO detainees... younger people that are healthy ... and damn sure isn't letting his legislators " cut in line" like the pinheads in D.C. have done. (@AOC)
DeSantis also noted that he would not use up second doses just to increase his vaccination numbers when doing so would be a bad health practice
“If the implication is that we should be giving those second doses away to other people, that is not the way the FDA has prescribed the series,” he wrote.
“We are committed to ensuring our seniors are the priority and get their second dose, and if the White House is suggesting that we shouldn’t be doing that, I don’t think that’s a good suggestion.”
DeSantis later said during an appearance “Fox News Primetime” that “we can probably do two to three times what we are doing” if the vaccine was available from the Biden administration, according to Fox News.
“I can tell you, all the first doses that come in, we can rip through them in a week and then some, no problem,” he said.
“We can probably do two to three times what we are doing. All we were saying [is] once you have these things you’re saying you’re going to, [like] put federal resources, and create your own sites … it’s really not necessary and I think a lot of Democratic governors agree with me.
“Just give us more supply of the vaccine, because originally we were promised more up to this point,” he added. “I can get it in seniors’ arms if we get just get more in the shipments.”
DeSantis told Fox that Psaki was playing a game with the numbers.
“What she said is they only administered 54 percent, but what she didn’t say is the ones that haven’t been administered are going to be administered on schedule because it’s the second doses for people,” he said
“So the suggestion she was trying to make is that Florida should be giving away second doses to people who aren’t coming in for their second dose. Our elderly population wants to get the second dose. You’re going to see those second doses in Florida really spike because people are scheduled for it.”
Hell Psaki can't even answer VALID questions on the: abortion issue.. guns... she always uses her famous line " I'll circle back to you on that subject" BUT NEVER DOES! What is she trying to hide from the American People.
... contrast this to the ex President, daily press briefings quickly disappeared.
... as you often display vulgar disrespect for Kamala Harris, VP USA, you should disappear from this thread.Comment

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
1.. you aren't even an American citizen, so AGAIN you have no dog in this fight.
2.. the reason for the Trump admin for stopping the briefings is because of all the vitriol from the likes of loud mouth Acosther ...
I just hope Psaki receives the same amount of hate that all THREE of Trump's press secretaries received..
Fair play and all that shit.

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
... oh yes, the revolving door of failed ex Press Secretaries. None were concerned with the "facts first, science first" mantra of Jen Psaki that Americans want to hear.
... members of the Press Corp including Fox News and all are free to ask any question of Jen in the daily press briefings. One reporter, Peter Doocy, Chief White House reporter for Fox News has asked several attempted gotcha questions. Jen expertly responded with a wry smile.
Here is today's briefing.

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
I know you ignored my first response to this post, so I will give you another chance to respond.
So please tell us all how you have ANY respect for trump. He lies like most people breathe. He has cheated on all of his wives. He has cheated contractors by not paying them for services. How do you reconcile this?Comment

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
Speaking for myself: I support Trump the same way you support (or don't speak out against) all the liberal politicians that have cheated on their wife, made millions off insider trading, have crooked deals with our enemies that involve family members (that's the way they get away with it.)

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
New Variants of the Virus that Causes COVID-19
Multiple variants of the virus that causes COVID-19 are circulating globally. So far, studies suggest that antibodies generated through vaccination with currently authorized vaccines recognize these variants. This is being closely investigated and more studies are underway. Rigorous and increased compliance with public health mitigation strategies, such as vaccination, physical distancing, use of masks, hand hygiene, and isolation and quarantine, is essential to limit the spread of the virus that causes COVID-19 and protect public health.Comment

Re: Latest on the Corona Virus
In one breath you say that you'll criticize any politician whether they're democrat or republican. I ask you to name some corrupt democrats and you can't name a SINGLE one.
You're right. You don't have to prove anything to me but you do have to back up what you say. If not, you're full of shit.Adversity temporarily visits a strong man but stays with the weak for a lifetime.Comment
