There were 390 new confirmed coronavirus cases on Sunday, as well as one additional confirmed death.
When it comes to creating vaccine, the United States has largely chosen to go it alone. It’s a risky bet, say experts.
'No one is safe until everyone is safe': Vaccine nationalism threatens global coronavirus effort

I say use ANY untested vaccines on the federal state and local officials 1st........ We the people are NOT your guinea pigs
I never met an intelligent anti-vaxer in my life
We should just let China come up with one and buy it from them just like all the other medicines
Capitalism will kill us all
No vaccine is totally effective, just think of the flu
Agree except none for China who is responsible for this pandemic. Screw them.
Not sure I want America to be “me first” with a vaccine made this quickly.
This is true
people who don't believe in masks don't believe in vaccines either.
We have a vaccine for the flu! And it is not very successful. Corona vaccine might not even happen
I say we let the the house and the Senate get vaccinated first so we know it actually works they wants what's best for the American people right
For the money!
That's because it isn't about saving people, it's about safeguarding future profits.
The coronavirus has a 0.04% fatality rate for people under the age of 70
We have no business taking a vaccine.
Thanks, Trump.
This should be a coordinated effort with scientists all over the world. It doesn't matter who figures it out first, just that it gets done safely and effectively.
Do you actually report anything factual or that is acting as a traitor? Integrity, miss the days when the press actually sought out the truth! Sell outs, enjoy the greed! We all , well common sense tells us the numbers & tests are fraudulent! And, we are going to put relevance on any other country, why? Sell outs!
That's why Bill Gates and who are testing people in africa lol
ANY medical treatments, advice & guidelines should be between YOU & YOUR doctor. period. Doctors "practice " medicine because it's illnesses are usually never specific. Every person is different & every doctor practicing medicine is different. In no way, should the government be telling ANYONE what they HAVE to do for thier health! Been around, supposedly, for at least 6 mos, but now want to mandate masks 🤔 We should all be halt dead by now IF even half what they said were true! Common Sense People!
Vaccines have NEVER prevented ANYTHING...they are for profits NOT health
We have an idiot at the helm, so....
Going to use my God given senses! Been around, they claim since January?? We should be all half dead, the population should be almost extinct by now, if the numbers & the scare tactics were true!
Immune SYSTEMS! Never had a flu shot or the flu & never has my daughter!! Called immunity, unHerd of!!! (pun & misspelling was intentional) lol
Breaking: Governor Gretchen Whitmer has issued a new COVID-19 executive order. It says businesses open to the public must require customers and staff to wear face masks to protect against spreading the coronavirus. It also says masks must be worn in crowded outdoor spaces. It also reiterates the masking requirement for indoor public spaces. The order will go into effect Monday. A willful violation of the order could result in a fine of 500 dollars.

Clarification: The order goes into effect immediately for individuals, Monday for businesses.
Also states if you have a medical condition you ate exempt
About damn time. I'm sick of the 2 or 3 people at Meijer being selfish and rude. Meijer has delivery and curbside and Mperks coupons making both free. Mask up or stay home.
SCOTUS just gave back half of Oklahoma to the Native Americans because someone successfully argue that he could not be prosecuted by the state because he was on Tribal land. This holds true for Michigan as well. The governor no longer has jurisdiction in Michigan based on the brand new precedent by SCOTUS...
Is the fine toward the business, or the individual, or both?
Yes, it can be enforced. Trumps new friend AMLO does it in his country. Government Secretary Álvaro de la Peña Ángulo announced yesterday that across the state 969 people have been sanctioned since the health crisis began for failing to comply with coronavirus restrictions, and 78% of them chose to do jail time rather than pay a fine of up to 8,000 pesos, about US $356. “In La Paz there were a total of 205 offenses, of which 203 people were sanctioned with a 36-hour arrest; only two of them preferred to pay a fine, and none chose to pay with community service work,” De la Peña said. The greatest number of offenders were cited in Los Cabos, where 352 people were sent to jail and 57 were fined. Only one person in the state, a person cited in Loreto, decided to serve out their punishment doing community service work.
