Maybe that's because millions of poor Americans are poor immigrants...

You're wasting your time by arguing with a Melvin. He'll just go down another rabbit hole about the number of migrants in the country...

Well, at least he said he was sorry for the cluster----:
"A top federal official on Saturday apologized and said a "miscommunication" was to blame for the confusion this week, after governors and state officials reported their doses of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine were being cut without explanation."

Get a grip.

To put it in perspective, Darian,  I'm in the epicenter of the epicenter of the worldwide pandemic of covid 19. In other words, the USA is the worst in the world with cases and deaths. California currently leads the nation in that category and Los Angeles county is the major source in the state of Covid cases and deaths and I live within the boundaries of the latter.  Hospital ICU capacity are at zero percent, 02 is running low, and hospital gift shops now house covid patients. So, perhaps you might understand why I'm acutely cognizant of it.
