(President Trump's Operation Warp Speed Update)
(Vaccinations proceeding very slowly - Cases, Hospitalizations and Deaths seem to have levelled off around a new, very low and slightly declining plateau, over the last 2-3 weeks)
Total Vaccine Doses Delivered: 379,446,660 (21,434,300 J&J)
Administered: 318,576,441 (12,047,571 J&J)
People Vaccinated, At Least One Dose: 177,635,067
Fully Vaccinated: 150,424,675
Total Vaccine Doses Delivered: 333,000 (Very Weak) (No J&J)
Administered: 610,000 (Very Weak) (32,000 J&J - Very Weak)
People Vaccinated, First Shot: 292,000 - (Very Weak).
Fully Vaccinated: 379,000 (Very Weak)
% Total Population with at least a First Shot: 53.5 (up 0.1)
Those ≥ 18 Years of Age (Adults): 65.5% (up 0.1)
Those ≥ 65 Years of Age: 87.3 % (flat) (77.2% Fully Vaccinated - up 0.1)
Cases, Hospitalizations and Deaths low, with a flat trend, to slightly down. Kind of a new plateau over the last 2-3 weeks, with a slight downward slope.
393 Deaths (flat trend)
Walgreens is giving $25 to people who go get the coronavirus vaccine at their locations from Tuesday to Saturday.
Biden Admin giving up on goal of 70% of Adults with a first shot by the 4th of July. Vaccination rates have slowed by about half, from the rate originally projected to reach that goal (down to around 300K first shots per day, from a projected rate over 600K/day).
Seems that more people are aware of VAERS, what it is and how it relates to the current "Vaccine" that is being pushed.
Saw this study of asymptomatic covid cases in US and got all excited because it’s something I think is very important to know.

Then realized it’s a year old.
Getting good info on covid is SO hard!
Another slow day with the vaccinations, let’s see if it picks up Friday again: people wanting to have the weekend to recover.
Seeing how the most vulnerable people are vaccinated at close to 90% and the rest are probably living in the ‘sticks’ somewhere - I would change your language from - ‘very weak’ to ‘too many’.
History of Delta variant (and others) in UK.
https://www.gov.uk/government/news/confirmed-cases-of-covid-19-variants-identified-in-uk
Very informative.
What mostly makes me sanguine about Delta here is that we’re about six weeks further along in our vaccinations here than they were when it hit them.
But we’ll see, I’ve been optimistic before.
“”Vaccine rates have slowed by a out half.. “
“Seems that more people are aware of VAERS”
That is probably a factor (safety concerns), as is the big drop in the disease threat, and probably just plain market saturation - people who really wanted to get vaccinated, have mostly gotten it done.
The UK hit a knee in the curve around 60% of adults as well.
We have very high rates in people 65 or older, who are most at risk (87.3% with a first shot). Those 50-64 also have higher than average rates (72.4% with a first shot). The younger the population you look at in America, the lower the vaccination rate - pretty much in line with the lower risk that the disease presents to younger people.
“What mostly makes me sanguine about Delta here is that we’re about six weeks further along in our vaccinations here than they were when it hit them.”

And, in the US, we focused on all getting the 2nd shot timely which the UK did not. Delta is much more able to infect the one-shoters than the other variants are.
“What mostly makes me sanguine about Delta here is that we’re about six weeks further along in our vaccinations here than they were when it hit them.”
It (Delta) does not seem to be changing trends at the National level - cases, hospitalizations and deaths still at low levels, and on gradual downslopes.
If nothing notable happens in the next 2-3 weeks, it is probably not going to be a big deal in the States.
As you point out, we are probably further along (with strong immunity), than the UK was. Our vaccines are stronger.
And the minors whose "woke" parents take their kids in to get the shot?
Even the CDC knows that young people survive covid more than the flu in years past and and older vulnerable people die at a higher rate. (this is exhausting). Stop trying to vaccinate the young and healthy. We will get it and be fine. I know the news shows the few young people who die from it and for some reason in years past they never show the many MORE dying from the flu. Think........
“young people survive covid more”
Dr. Makary from John Hopkins (Fox News Contributor) stated about a week ago, that there has probably only been one child in the USA (without co-morbidity), who died of COVID-19.
In Nursing Homes, it was like a plague.
The best vaccines in the world are
@ 11 if I read that correctly - agree. The young do better getting the contagion. Young immune systems kick it’s a$$.
The CDC reports that the H1N1 devolved into the seasonal flu virus.
It was never called a variant or given a name after that period or now.
Props to the German firm BioNTech as well - and their Turkish husband and wife founders.
We still test for H1N1 - it’s still out there it has just become endemic as covid will
Yes, you read it correctly.
Vanishingly low severity or mortality among children (except for those with relatively rare co-morbidities). Children likely play a correspondingly negligible role in transmission as well.
It’s, admittedly, too early for me to take this position but...
I don’t think it will be endemic, maybe background.
So far it hasn’t found a pool of animals to mutate and come back from to infect humans. And it seems to be too specialized to have a huge number of viable mutations like flu or colds.
As I wrote, the CDC says it is part of the seasonal flu.
The wuhan coronavirus is very contagious, so the number of people with antibodies will quickly increase until it can no longer be transmitted. It mutates a lot and the new strains might be different in important ways.
