Unbelievable, just for the record Israel won a war with nations surrounding them in 6 days ffs, they again beat them years later again in a few days, I am not an Israel lover, far from it in fact, I am the opposite, but to say they suck is unbelievably naive, ignorant and plain wrong.
They suck in not sending some vaccine doses to the Palestinians. It is a question of morality, not how big a gun they have.

What happened 50 years ago has little to do with Israel's recent behavior. Choking the economic life out of Palestinian territories is THE REASON why the Palestinian government do not have funds for the vaccine.

So, yeah, for their recent actions, for continuing to support the right wing nationalist leader who perpetrated those actions and for being a gluttonous pig over the vaccine, Israel sucks.

I think Netanyahu and the same right wing rhetoric is really the only gripe I have with how at least the one political party makes them seem. Im sure it is the same with us and Trump/Republicans and the rest of the world.

Collins urges Biden to revisit order on US-Canada border limits
Collins said she hoped they could work to an “equitable solution” for communities along the U.S.-Canadian border that takes into account localized risk levels.

“Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, strict travel restrictions at land ports of entry between the United States and Canada have been in effect for nearly one calendar year,” Collins wrote. “While I appreciate the need to limit nonessential travel into the United States in order to prevent further spread of COVID-19, these restrictions should reflect the localized risk levels along our border, and allow for certain common-sense exceptions, such as visits among close relatives or day-to-day local commerce in low-COVID-19 transmission areas,” she continued.

As much as I like having the US as neighbors, I think I would want to keep things as they are until Canadians get vaccinated more.

Well, in his defense (again), they have to keep OJ alive so he can keep searching all those golf courses for Nicole's killer.

Joe has 72.8 million doses administered and we are less than 40 days into his administration, by the time he hits 100 days most folks who want a vaccine will be able to get one. Get the vulnerable and elderly vaccinated and the deaths and hospitalizations will drop dramatically, even a single dose of the double dose vaccines offers a lot of protection just a couple of weeks after the first shot. I think most people over 50 will be able to get vaccinated in America by spring, we have our own vaccine roll out and supply issues in Canada, but should be in a similar position by spring too.

Once we get ahead of covid there will be no looking back with new vaccines, modified ones to deal with variants and anti viral therapeutics that will be coming online over the next year. Covid might be with us forever or awhile, but we will have the tools to mitigate and manage it.

I think the 72M is total, not just since President Joe Rob has been in office. Still a great job and he is well ahead of the 1M per day rate.
