    Curious as to whether or not vaccine distribution was included in the pandemic playbook that Trump tossed.

    Pence was referring to how he felt about being partially responsible for 300,000 deaths.

    Murdoch received his first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine as his network’s biggest star peddled vaccine skepticism and told viewers they should react “nervously” to the rollout https://trib.al/wY3Yf1d

    Money is the root of all evil. Fox is losing viewers to OANN/Newsmax and needs to fight crazy with insanity.

    Over 1.5 million cases this past week in the US. @bigtexxx, you still blaming Cuomo, or do you finally acknowledge Trump is the incompetent one?

    Minnesota state senator dies after being diagnosed with Covid-19

    (CNN)Minnesota state Sen. Jerry Relph died Friday following his diagnosis and hospitalization from Covid-19.

    "I'm heartbroken to share that my husband, Jerry Relph, has passed away and entered his heavenly home," his wife Pegi Broker-Relph said in a statement. "Jerry was a beloved husband, father, and grandfather." The family did not elaborate on the cause of Relph's death.
    The 76-year-old, who represented the St. Cloud area, had tested positive for Covid-19 on November 13, after discovering he was exposed to the virus at the Minnesota State Capitol, CNN's affiliate WCCO reported. Relph was admitted to an emergency room that weekend for his symptoms, according to WCCO.

    He was elected to a four-year term in the Minnesota state Senate in 2016, narrowing beating his Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party opponent Dan Wolgamott by over 100 votes in a recount. Relph lost reelection to his seat this fall.
    Pegi Broker-Relph said that her husband loved serving the people of St. Cloud and "cherished every minute of it."
    "Jerry dedicated his life to service and representing Senate District 14 was one of the highest honors he had. I can't count the number of times he would come home at night and tell me about helping solve a constituent's problem, or a story he heard from someone in a parade or at a public event, or even just someone he met during a 'day on the hill' event," Broker-Relph said Friday.

    "Jerry loved diving into the issues, finding compromise, and working together to solve problems and I have no doubt he would have continued solving problems outside the legislature," she added.
    Before joining the Minnesota legislature, Relph was a Marine Corps veteran who served in Vietnam, an attorney and a small businessman.
    He was the main author of a bipartisan bill in March that provided emergency funding for combating Covid-19 in Minnesota.
    Minnesota's top Senate Republican called Relph a "true friend and colleague loved by so many."
    "For four years, he rolled up his sleeves and tackled tough issues for our state. Senator Relph will always be remembered as a dedicated public servant," Senate Majority Leader Paul Gazelka said in a statement Friday.
    DFL state Sen. Carolyn Laine, who was also elected in 2016, remembered Relph as "one of the least partisan" lawmakers, who "was filled with decency and integrity."
    "I am so sorry he has died of COVID-19. Back in March, he pressed for taking it seriously. Please honor his memory by doing so," Laine, an assistant minority leader in the state Senate, tweeted.
    Relph is survived by his wife, two children, four stepchildren and grandchildren.
    CNN's Lechelle Benken contributed to this report.

    It was a lie then, it is a lie now. But interesting to look back at the "... is just around the corner."

    it rubs me the wrong way for trump administration aka pence and others to get vaccination firsr when they r literally the reason for how poorly the pandemic has been handled.

    Same for the politicians that took this fking long for a stimulus bill.

    But I guess they need to lead by "example".
