Can someone explain to me what the hell is taking the FDA so long to approve the vaccine?  There are about 2000 people dying every day.  40% of them live in nursing homes or the equivalent.  Every day that the vaccine is delayed, 800 people die.  Not only that, and equally important or perhaps more important, people in nursing homes have not been able to have normal visitation, in some cases any visitors, in months.  Life expectancy when you enter a nursing home is around six months.  This means many people have lived the last months of their lives in solitude.

If the FDA is truly scrutinizing the data more carefully, great.  If they truly took a four day weekend over Thanksgiving, I’d like to string them up by their thumbs.  Look at the data.  But every employee connected remotely to this better be working seven days a week, fourteen hours a day.  Seriously.

From Fauci:

“Dr. Fauci said the politicization of the pandemic in his own country had led regulators to move a little more cautiously than the British, to avoid losing public support. “In the United States, there is such a considerable amount of tension, of pushing back on the credibility of the safety and of the efficacy,” he said.”

Bullshit.  Follow the process.  Vaccine doubters are not going to be swayed by an extra week of data review, particularly since multiple other countries are beginning mass vaccination.
