The Trump administration shut vaccine safety office last year.

For now, Operation Warp Speed, created by the Trump administration to spearhead development of coronavirus vaccines and treatments, is focused on getting vaccines through clinical trials in record time and manufacturing them quickly.

“We’re behind the eight ball,” said Daniel Salmon, who served as the director of vaccine safety in that office from 2007 to 2012, overseeing coordination during the H1N1 flu pandemic in 2009. ”We don’t even know who’s in charge.”

Scientists from various federal agencies gathered every two weeks to share data and look for worrying clusters of symptoms. Every month, outside experts reviewed the evidence and released public reports. “Vaccine programs are contingent on trust,” Dr. Gellin said, “and transparency is a huge element of that.”

The offices were merged “after a study by career staff who recommended to the Assistant Secretary for Health that this was the best way to improve the function of both offices by creating synergies and eliminating stovepipes,” said Admiral Brett Giroir, assistant secretary for health, in a brief statement. “I wholeheartedly concurred with this recommendation because strengthening vaccine effectiveness and confidence and ending the H.I.V. epidemic are two of my most critical priorities. Anyone who is suggesting that we closed this office has no clue what they’re talking about.”

But Dr. Nicole Lurie, who was assistant secretary for preparedness and response at H.H.S. during the 2009 pandemic, said the loss of the vaccine safety office was especially costly once the coronavirus pandemic hit. “The coordinated leadership for stuff like this would likely come from the National Vaccine Program Office,” she said.

Wisconsin breaks C-19 records/ Ivanka, lets talk about ice cream sundaes, as she was in Wisconsin

"The people we're seeing in here are very sick," nurse Katie Lanoway said. "They are lonely. They are dealing with this alone and it's becoming increasingly harder for us to try to manage, and playing all these different roles: playing the nurse, playing the support person. It's very difficult.”

On Friday, Wisconsin reported a seven-day rolling average of its positivity rate: 22.7 percent. (That’s the percentage of tests that come back positive.) The same rate in New York is currently barely above 1 percent — and even that’s considered risky.

“It's terrifying,” said Dr. Katie Gavinski, who started working at UW Health in Madison this summer. “I'm very scared that if this doesn't stop soon, we're going to end up with a much bigger problem come winter and flu season.”

snip

"It's devastating to see someone struggling to breathe,” Gavinski said. “You can see the fear in their eyes. You can see how scared they are.”

Ivanka Trump, meanwhile, was visiting suburban Milwaukee and here for none of this.

“I learned that the first ice cream sundae was created in this amazing state!” the president’s older daughter and senior White House adviser said from a small stage of a sunlit function room overlooking a pond.

Thanx to DUer Miles Archer for posting this story.

*******

WI's positivity rate is 22.7 percent and princess sparkle pony talks about ice cream sundaes? :banged:

Trump, "Different places are different."

He has gone off the deep end .... ah but he strawberries it was there with my geometric logic

Update: So the Chinese put 17 million into Trump Hotels* after Trump was put into the White House...

….and then Don got some of the funds (15 million) from the Trump Hotel entities which he then put into
a secret Chinese bank account?

Did I get that right? I got that outline from Sir Lawrence of O'Donnell last night.

If this is true then Trump is really compromised and the Chinese own him. This is one more part of the Steele Dossier
has been validated and that is Trump was not just in debt to Russia but China and Saudi Arabia too.

Trump, “I’ll be so tough on China.”

So far the # of parts of the Steele Dossier that have been disproved is zero.


* aka Don Jr., Eric, Jared and Princess Fake Tits of Trump Tower.

So the Chinese put 17 million into Trump Hotels after Trump was put into the White House and ...

....then Don got funds (15 million) from the Trump Hotel entities and then Donny put that money in
a secret Chinese bank account? Did I get that right? I just got that sketch from Sir Lawrence of
O'Donnell.

If this is true then Trump is so compromised and one more part of the Steele Dossier has been validated
which is that Trump was not just in debt to Russia but China and Saudi Arabia too.

Authentic Frontier Gibberish ... Now you can buy a dishwasher and comes out and beautiful.

Good dog in heaven what the fuck does that mean?

The Biden campaign is now poking Trump with a stick.

Joe's TV and internet spots now show him running up the steps to his campaign plane
something Trump has trouble doing going up and or down.
