Almost as if he thinks the real problem is disease mitigation, and not the disease.
You seem to think stopping the virus is the problem but you dance around the issue when I ask you what you think the endgame is. Preventing serious disease/death (if that's what you mean by disease mitigation) has always been the one and only issue. Who cares if people get the sniffles after vaccination. In 12 weeks America will begin to help rescue the world because we will be done with our population. China will not be first on the list.

Nope. Russia is a gastation pretending to be a country economically. They do have nukes and build their armament from the first screw so they are a force militarily. But thats it. They are a middle weight at best.
Yup and chinese can eat shoes for a couple thousand years more while we burn shit down for having to wear a mask :lmao

I'm not sure what you mean by endgame, if you clarified that, I might be able to make a stab at it.
Also not sure why you think vaccination will be over in three months, as I understand that's roughly when the US will have enough doses for everyone. Getting those doses into arms will presumably take some time. Last estimate I heard for that was "summer/fall."
If you have fresher information, please do share.

You're aware that Sleepy Joe promised to be tougher on China than Trump correct? Thus far it appears he is going to keep that promise. China's entire economy is dependent on being a preferred trading partner with America. That started with idea that we gain access to their huge internal market, a nice idea that the CCP never allowed to happen. Aging demographics in China are now on the verge of rapidly changing to make China an unappealing market for US, retirement communities just don't consume enough. Plus old people just don't make good low cost workers. They can't steal cheap labor from other countries like we do because they are a closed society.
Mexico on the other hand has a perfect age pyramid and a shiny new trade deal with us. That's why we are stealing our shit job labor from central america instead of Mexico now.

Bear in mind 30-40% of people won't want the vaccine so it will be very soon that everyone who wants a vaccine will have gotten it.
Some areas are already having trouble filling appts

By endgame I mean when do you think the pandemic is over. When x number of people stop testing pcr positive? Or when serious illness and death drop to x number?

I'd just be guessing. If fatalities/hospitalizations drop to the ordinary range of the flu and/or the CDC says it's over?
If you can answer your own questions, I'd be grateful for the information.

I assumed you had your own take on things and were being coy about it. My legit take is scattered over the 900 pages of this thread along with some obvious (to me) for lulz takes. I'll summarize my legit takes for you but first I'm hungry.

You said book it to Biden racking up more deaths than Trump even after I showed you it was not possible. Thanks to Trump's vaccines, the winning vaccines.

Did they change eligibility requirements?

Re: Coronavirus is one mutation away from infecting millions
im still not eligible in VA. they've been somewhat slow on the rollout. dont know how they compare against other states. right now eligibility is limited to 65+, medical personnel, and very specific essential workers like school staff, emergency services, postage/public transport, food industry, etc.
next stage, 1c, includes other "essential workers" including legal services, but no clue when that stage is set to begin. after that its general pop

If I have to wait for all the fat people in SA to get vaccinated, I probably won't be eligible until the summer. :lol

This is way out in west Texas and apparently it's from a surplus so there were no requirements.
