What the fuck are they doing? 

Imma....they are trying to kill us.

I'm dead serious, 100%.  This is the end result of a campaign by hostile nation states to cripple the United States, including crippling it by sickening/killing outsized portions of the population.

Dead Americans is the goal of this campaign.  It is going according to plan -- actually, better than they ever imagined.

The thing is that the GOP and thus America has the soul of a car dealer. Rent-seeking, grasping, anti-competitive, dependent on stacked decks, and convinced that they were born on third because of their innate talent and competence. 
 

The car dealer is the American feudal lord or nobility.  The car dealer is given a territory which he possesses and which is inheritable, a larger lord may buy his right or marry into it but the peasantry can’t purchase an RMA.  The great houses only get bigger, the minor nobles only shrink, the bloodline only becomes more incestuous. It is inherently rent-seeking and is extractive, neither the manufacturer or client receives a benefit and the car dealer’s position is ultimately secured by the government. And yet the car dealer believes their little fiefdom and the rents they pay extract are the essence of the free market. 
 

Imagine an entire economy and government with the mentality of the grubbiest Hyundai dealer in a mid-major metropolitan area.  That’s what we have. 

How dare you sir, Scott Elder is a dealer by the people for the people. *   **

Can a car dealer claim prima nocte?  Asking for a friend considering a career change.

My neighborhood is lousy with Japanese mini trucks.  They can be had at well below golf cart prices, and are small enough to go anywhere a golf cart goes.

Collaboration?

Last week, “The President’s Own” quietly canceled a concert program originally billed as the “Equity Arc Wind Symphony.” The performance was to be the culmination of a “multiday music intensive with musicians from ‘The President’s Own,’” and high school musician fellows selected through auditions organized by the Chicago-based Equity Arc, a nonprofit organization that provides “specialized mentoring support for young BIPOC musicians” and “helps institutions take meaningful steps toward equity and inclusion.”

Damn this hits close to home. Got the flu shot and still got the flu and it still hit pretty hard. No shot or shortage and I'm going to be pissed.

Just told the wife we may be traveling for flu shots next year.

(anecdotal) For our family, it's been very effective to get the annual shot. It's the secondary infections like pneumonia that are the real risk and as someone who has had that more than once, the prevention or resulting milder case of flu has been worth every penny. This anti-science death regime just doesn't give a damn until it's their own throat that's been strangled. Sickening.

Hey @Anastasis, again great job with the whole burn-it-all-down thing. 

The FDA adcom is redundant. How did they perform with the strain selection last year? You think maybe it could be reasonable to reassess their methodology and process? But be sure to @ me when it gets rescheduled. Maybe we could do something fun and see if the selection process this year has better or worse performance and outcomes than last year. 

Meanwhile, head of drug evaluation at FDA just went through the revolving door and named the new CMO for Pfizer. 

You certainly seem to have your eye on the ball.

Perhaps Cavazzoni having joined the FDA under Trump's first go 'round was tapped by Pfizer board member Scott Gottlieb since he was head of the FDA while she was there. I mean it's not like the upper levels of government officials are going to mill around waiting to be fired or want to deal with the Teen Tech Toddlers looking over their shoulders and causing headaches--they're going to leave when opportunity knocks and it's going to be in their field, not ditch digging. Isn't this what was wanted? No people, no regulations, and everyone for themselves.

I've paid enough attention the adcom process to know that it is fundamentally broken. I am not going to lose my mind over a meeting getting canceled. If and when it results in worse strain selection outcomes and/or delays in delivery to market wake me up.

They should all be barred from cycling between pharma and the FDA. And I like Gottlieb and think that he was a pretty good FDA leader, but fuck hopping between the regulators and industry. That shit is fucking dirty.

One could say that about a lot of career fields with respect to government and industry but since many members of Congress and the Senate do it, don't hold your breath.

HHS isn't even the worst culprit. Looking at you DoD. And yes, congress as well.

What if we can't wake you up because you're dead from the influenza outbreak? 

I guess we win the argument.

No, Ana still wins. Because sometimes, trying to predict a virus that mutates, varies, and can see one strain or another take off due to any of a variety of circumstances, they predict the most likely strain incorrectly. So, clearly, the best answer is just to stop developing flu vaccines (oh, and the admin didn’t say a fucking word about “let’s delay the process this year so we can refine it and make it more likely to get the strain right”).
Yet again, Ana, who totally doesn’t support and didn’t vote for Trump, rushes to white knight EVERY. SINGLE. THING. The admin does. Just a wild coincidence, I guess.

Congrats in that scenario I guess. But if that is the case it most likely will not be due to outside the range mismatch in strain selection. Delay in delivery to market is the bigger risk. But if they doing a shitty job of strain selection, that one really doesn't matter. And the strain selection has been the primary issue recently.

What if there isn't an outbreak and we still don't wake him up? Just act like we forgot or it was someone else's fault.

No one is suggesting this here. But it is wild that any rethinking of the process, one that has multiple redundancies and fails to meet the objective goals is automatically rejected. If you want to really wild, look at what offit has said about the covid vaccine strategy and the role the FDA and CDC played in mucking that shit up.
