Capitalist efficiency babyyy. You just know this shit is happening everywhere.

I also heard Terrance on trillbillies say that the US is on track to achieve hers immunity via vaccine in SEVEN YEARS (I couldn’t find whatever source he was talking about though) u/an_engel_on_earth provided the source. Grim stuff.

      Meanwhile all the ghouls got it on like the 1st of December “to inspire confidence in the vaccine” :agony-consuming:

      Well duh? You can't jump the line you greedy bastard.

      I can't believe daddy Cuomo didn't win Time's Person of the Year for his outstanding handling of this pandemic!

      If you promise not to be mean to Mr. Cuomo (or any Dems you cheeky fuck!!!) maybe he'll be nice enough to give you an expired dose.

      That's one where I'd want to see how the executive order is written. Consider that both of these can be portrayed by hostile media as what you're saying:

      1. "Anyone who gives an unapproved person the vaccine, no matter the reason, is fined one million dollars and loses their medical license, full stop."
      2. "If you give an unapproved person the vaccine, you could be fined up to one million dollars, and you could be subjected to punishments up to and including losing your medical license. But if approved people don't show and you give soon-to-expire vaccines to high-risk groups, that's OK."

      Cuomo's a shithead, but it's extremely easy to imagine a more defensible version of that rule and it being reported as draconian anyway.

          In that case, presenting it like this is absolutely bad, if only because -- whatever the reality of the application of this policy -- it'll scare some healthcare workers into letting doses expire.
