We have new assurances that by July or August the U.S. government will have secured an adequate COVID-19 vaccine supply in order to fully immunize our population, or at least 80 percent, considered by some a threshold for interrupting SARS CoV2 virus transmission. Achieving such high rates of coverage will not be easy. To begin with, the U.S. does not have an adult national immunization program and current rates of vaccine hesitancy especially among African American and conservative groups are a challenge. Nevertheless there is overall great optimism that we can vaccinate our way out of the COVID-19 pandemic that began in 2020. Fully vaccinating the U.S. population means that Americans can go to work, hold sporting events, attend concerts, visit family, or enjoy restaurants and outings without fear of hospitalization or death. We have cause for great optimism from a return to normalcy or near normalcy. ADVERTISEMENT Unfortunately, the good news that … [Read more...] about COVID variant could mean a brutal March for the US

A federal judge late Tuesday blocked the Biden administration's 100-day deportation freeze, a move that comes as the White House faces criticism for not immediately rolling back the Trump administration's controversial policies. The Associated Press reported that U.S. District Judge Drew Tipton issued a preliminary injunction halting the deportation freeze. Tipton's move does not force the Biden administration to continue deportations at the current pace, the news service noted. ADVERTISEMENT Last month, Tipton granted Texas a temporary restraining order, finding the deportation freeze violated administrative procedure. "Texas has thus far satisfactorily demonstrated it is entitled to immediate and temporary relief from the January 20 Memorandum’s 100-day pause on removals," he wrote in the January decision. The White House did not immediately return a request for comment regarding a possible appeal of Tipton's latest ruling. Immigration advocates have hounded … [Read more...] about Judge blocks Biden’s 100-day moratorium on deportations
