Flat Footed..

 

 

In an interview for NBC’s Today Show, Harris was asked by host Craig Melvin whether she’ll be President Joe Biden’s running mate in 2024.

“I’m sorry, we are thinking about today,” Harris said in the interview. “I mean, honestly I know why you’re asking the question, because this is part of the punditry and the gossip around places like Washington, DC. Let me just tell you something: we’re focused on the things in front of us.”

Vice President Kamala Harris said the Biden administration "didn't see," either Delta or Omicron coronavirus variants coming, appearing to reinforce the perception that the federal response was caught flat-footed by the more severe Delta variant that swept over the country in the summertime.

"We didn't see Delta coming. I think most scientists did not upon whose advice and direction we have relied — didn't see Delta coming," Harris told the Los Angeles Times in a year-end interview. "We didn't see Omicron coming. And that's the nature of what this, this awful virus has been, which as it turns out, has mutations and variants."

This administration didn't see it coming. Didn't see anything coming or going. It was in their "blind spot" or may be more blind spots than we can imagine.

Just a "Blind spot" thought

Dive..

CNN’s ratings took a Nosedive by a massive 90 percent both overall and in the all-important demographic coveted by advertisers in the first week of the new year.

The Jeff Zucker-led cable news network averaged just 548,000 viewers during the week of Jan. 3, a major drop from the nearly 2.7 million viewers for the same week in 2021, according to Nielsen ratings. 

The year-ago ratings were jolted by the left-leaning network’s coverage of the Jan. 6 attack on the US Capitol, which resulted in CNN having its most-watched day since Ted Turner launched the news outlet in 1980.

But on the one-year anniversary of the attacks, viewers flipped over to CNN’s right-wing rival, Fox News, which topped the ratings for coverage of the event.

Just a "Nosedive" thought.

The Brink .

 

The UK may be on the brink of beating the Covid-19 pandemic.

Covid-19 would "almost certainly" get weaker every year as people develop natural immunity and eventually become a common cold that kills only the very vulnerable further down the line.

Currently, about 130 people are dying from the Covid every day in England at what is believed to be the peak of the Omicron outbreak, compared to 1,300 last January before vaccines were widely available, the report said.

While infection rates more than quadrupled since September following the emergence of the ultra-transmissible variant, daily deaths have barely changed during the same period.

On the other hand, government estimates show there were more than 400 influenza deaths per day at the peak of the last bad flu season in 2017/18.

Not only the CDC giving instructions, but the politicians also gave variety of instruction all of which added to the confusion and discomfort.
