“…Despite the outstanding questions and challenges in delivering these vaccines, it is hard not to be excited about these findings and the existence of three safe and efficacious COVID-19 vaccines, with a further 55 already in clinical trials.1…
This is the first report of efficacy against COVID-19 for a non-profit vaccine aiming for global supply, equity, and commitment to low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs),4, 5 and as such its publication is very welcomed.”
J. Harris: Apparently the vaccine hasn’t been well studied in those over 70 Y/O. It did gather some data about immunity after mistakenly using half doses of the vaccine. The vaccine should sell for $2-3/dose.
This is the British/Oxford vaccine and will be used in India as well.
“Most duplicate publications of RCTs conducted in mainland China in this study were cross-language duplicates and unreferenced republications of the main articles. Duplicate publication bias exists when the main articles were published in Chinese, potentially misleading readers and compromising journals and evidence synthesis.”
All phase 1A and 1B individuals are eligible to receive a vaccine at these hubs, no matter where they live.
Phase 1A includes front-line health care workers and residents at long-term care facilities, while phase 1B includes people over 65 or with a chronic medical condition that puts them at increased risk for severe illness from COVID‑19.
People should not show up to a hub if they don’t have an appointment. Providers are focusing on vaccinating areas and populations hardest hit by COVID‑19, DSHS said.
According to the state, vaccine supplies are limited but more supply is coming every week.
For week five of the vaccine allocation, NET Health and UT Health Science Center at Tyler each received 1,500 doses of the vaccine.
NET Health CEO George Roberts said the health district will be hosting vaccine drive-thru clinics at Harvey Convention Center in Tyler every week based on an appointment and waiting list system. To become a part of the waiting list, visit nethealthcovid19.org.
The drive-thru vaccinations began last Friday and Saturday, and the next event will likely be this Tuesday and Wednesday. Those on the waiting list are the first called on an appointment.
Appointments are full at UT Health Science Center at Tyler, but UT Health East Texas said Friday that officials will publicize the next appointment availability through the media. Appointments began on Monday, and people used an online link to sign up for these appointments as well.

I checked the news shows on several networks this morning. All had Republicans and Democrats on air saying that President Trump committed an impeachable act on January 6, 2021.
There were a variety of viewpoints about whether he should be impeached with only 10 days left in office. The “no” and “yes” answers did not break along party lines. Those that said “no” said it was time for the country to move on. Others thought it was important to demonstrate that the President of the United States is not above the law.
Senator Mitch McConnell has said that if the House impeaches President Trump the trial in the Senate could not start before 20 January. The Senators are on a needed vacation.
It appears to me the solution is simple.
This week the House of Representatives should take up the question of impeachment. I understand that the vote on impeachment could come as early as Wednesday. Every Representative can cast a vote. This will let the voters know whether the Representative supports Donald Trump or the Constitution and the rule of law in the country. By Thursday Donald J. Trump could be Impeached.
This would give Trump a slap on the wrist for trying to destroy democracy in the United States.
The Constitution does not specify when the Speaker of the House has to send the articles to the Senate so she should hold them as long as she wants. She should hold the Impeachment paper. Mitch has said that the Senate cannot take impeachment up until after 20 January so there is no need to clutter his desk with Impeachment papers.
If Trump is a good boy for the next 10 days she could decide to just never forward the Impeachment papers. If Trump is a bad boy and acts up as expected by many, she could send the papers over after deciding if additional articles should be added.
The new Democrate Majority Leader of the Senate could schedule the Impeachment trial if required. Let’s all hope that it will not be required.

Current Texas Data only intermittently available these days.
J. Harris: I think, on the basis of the currently available information, the vaccines will cover the mutations. I feel more comfortable that two injections are better than one. Some of the information below is understandable.
Current Mutation Info from Hopkins:
EMERGING VARIANTS Information and analyses continue to emerge about newly identified SARS-CoV-2 variants, most notably B.1.1.7 (first identified in the UK) and B.1.351 (first identified in South Africa). Both variants appear to be more transmissible than the variants that circulated earlier in the pandemic, including those that are still circulating widely in most places around the world, but research is ongoing to fully characterize them. Perhaps the biggest concern is the potential that these variants could be less susceptible to newly authorized vaccines or therapeutic drugs. Preliminary research (preprint), conducted by researchers at Pfizer and the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB), provides evidence that the Pfizer vaccine is efficacious against both the B.1.1.7 and B.1.351 variants. The study was conducted on blood specimens collected from vaccinated individuals, as opposed to data collected from clinical trials in humans, but it does provide initial confidence that the vaccine will remain a capable tool against the new variants.
Another study published recently (preprint) by researchers at the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (Seattle, Washington, US), analyzed the effects of various mutations on the virus’ susceptibility to antibody treatments. The researchers found that variants with the E484K mutation, such as the B.1.351 variant, “have greatly reduced susceptibility to neutralization by the…serum antibodies of some individuals.” In fact, they observed decreased neutralization on the order of 10-fold or greater for variants with this mutation. They believe this is a result of changes to the receptor binding domain, which stimulates the majority of the antibody response. Notably, the researchers found that the N501Y mutation present in the B.1.1.7 variant “is unlikely to greatly affect neutralization by most human sera,” an encouraging indication. Further research is needed to better characterize the effects of these and other emerging variants—including their effects on disease severity, transmissibility, and susceptibility to medical countermeasures —but these studies provide insight into the potential impact these variants can have on the COVID-19 pandemic.
Yesterday about 12:20 pm I turned my computer on to get an update on the GA Senate race. I didn’t turn my computer off for more than 11 hours as I watched:
a traitorous mob of ….. incited and directed by the President of the United States ransack the Capital building – last done by the British during the War of 1812;
our U.S. Representatives, Senators and Vice President escorted to a “safe building”;
watched for hours as no one or group attempted to arrest the traitors or even remove the traitors from the Capital Building;
eventually watched as the traitors wander off to other areas of the Capital grounds;
listened to reports of our Congress people and the Vice President being returned under heavily armed police, etc. to the Capital;
watched both houses take back up the Constitutional work of counting and approving the previously state approved Electoral Votes and
finally going to bed after the Congress approved the State of Arizona Electoral Votes that of course had been challenged by state’s rights Republicans – have these Republicans no shame.
Most ironic photograph of the traitorous, trump cultist mob are trumpers carrying Confederate battle flags through the halls of Congress. A Republican President and Congress kept an illegal Confederate army from allowing this to happen only to have another Republican President and Congressmen support the invasion of the Capital building by those carrying confederate battle flags.
Saddest photograph was the traitorous trumpers tearing down a U.S. flag flying in front of the Capitol building and replacing it with a Trump flag. If this removal of a U.S. flag and raising of a (foreign) trump flag on the Capitol Building isn’t insurrection, what is?
Tom
Mr. Biden will become President at noon on Jan. 20, and until then the police need to restore order with as much force as necessary. Republicans especially need to speak against trespass and violence. As for Mr. Trump, to steal some famous words deployed in 1940 against Neville Chamberlain : “In the name of God, go.”
Wall Street Journal, Editorial Board
For four years, Trump’s critics have been accused of hysteria and hyperbole for describing his movement as fascist, authoritarian, or lawless. Today, as Congress attempts to certify the election of a new president, the president has vindicated those critics. In attempting this coup, Trump has also vindicated the Americans who voted decisively in November to remove him from office.
Trump has, over his term, lost the House, the presidency and now the Senate. He has turned states like Georgia and Arizona blue. I hope that Republican officeholders, especially in the Senate and House, are learning lessons.
What the pro-Trump rioters attacked was not only a building but also the Constitution, the electoral system, our democratic process. They humiliated the United States before the world and left America’s enemies chortling. They will be remembered as Benedict Arnolds.
Nicholas Kristof, NYT
“Some senators, for political gain, misled supporters about their ability to challenge the election results – some even sent out fundraising emails while insurrectionists stormed the Capital. That stops now –Republicans ought to focus on countering the Democrats’ radical agenda.” Senator Tom Cotton (R)
Republicans blame Trump after his supporters storm Capitol: ‘Enough is enough’
Fox News
Some (not all – Tom) Republicans placed the blame on President Trump after a group of his supporters besieged the U.S. Capitol building on Wednesday, voicing frustration with the president for fomenting the riot with his rhetoric about the election.
Within the span of just a few hours, what began as a rally to support the president descended into a mob that stormed the Capitol during the certification of the Electoral College vote, forcing lawmakers, staff and reporters to shelter in place in both the House and Senate. One woman was shot and later died.
Several in the GOP cited Trump’s refusal to concede to Joe Biden, his threats against fellow Republicans who disagreed with him and his insistence during his 70-minute speech that he wanted followers gathered on the National Mall to go to the Capitol in protest of what he said was a stolen election as the reason behind the violence.
“We witnessed today the damage that can result when men in power and responsibility refuse to acknowledge the truth,” Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Pa., said from the Senate floor. “We saw bloodshed because a demagogue chose to spread falsehoods and sow distrust of his own fellow Americans. Let’s not abet such deception.”
In social media posts later removed by Facebook and Twitter, Trump – who has maintained, without evidence, that the election was rigged – told the rioters “we love you” and “you’re very special,” but asked them to “stay peaceful” and later to “go home.” Early Thursday morning, Trump promised there would be an “orderly transition of power” on Jan. 20 when Biden is inaugurated.
Republicans who have closely aligned themselves with the president over the past four years implored Trump to stand down.
Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark., a 2024 Republican hopeful, said it was “past time” for the president to accept defeat and released a statement calling on Trump to concede.
“It’s past time for the president to accept the results of the election, quit misleading the American people and repudiate mob violence,” Cotton said.
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., one of Trump’s closest Capitol Hill allies, said “enough is enough” and told the president to “count me out.”
“Trump and I, we had a hell of a journey,” Graham said on the Senate floor Wednesday night. “I hate it being this way. Oh my God, I hate it … But today all I can say is count me out. Enough is enough. I tried to be helpful.”
Sen. John Thune, the No. 2 Senate Republican, said Trump’s rhetoric “sure didn’t help” matters.
“Certainly encouraging people to go to the Capitol and some of the sort of implied suggestions I think are you know … they just encourage the wrong behavior,” Thune said.
Asked whether he wanted to hear about what Trump said about the violence, Sen. Roy Blunt, R-Mo., said he “didn’t want to hear anything.”
“I think it was a tragic day,” Blunt said. “And he was part of it.”
Some of the president’s frequently outspoken critics were more direct, with Sen. Mitt Romney, R-Utah, calling the riot “an insurrection incited by the president of the United States.”
“We gather due to a selfish man’s injured pride, and the outrage of supporters who he has deliberately misinformed for the past two months and stirred to action this very morning,” Romney said. “What happened today was an insurrection incited by the president of the United States.”
The Republican Party is now walking to the edge of moral irredeemability. I say this as someone who, until 2016, had always voted the straight Republican ticket and who, until this week, had hoped that Republicans would hold the Senate as a way of tilting the Biden administration to the center. I say this also of the party generally, and not of the courageous individual Republicans — Brad Raffensperger, Mitt Romney, Denver Riggleman, Larry Hogan, Ben Sasse (the list is depressingly short) — who have preserved their principles, maintained their honor and kept their heads these past five years.
But there is no getting away from the extent to which leading party members and their cheerleaders in the right-wing media are complicit in creating the political atmosphere in which this Visigothic sacking of the Capitol took place.
Some of these charlatans are now trying to disavow Wednesday’s violence in carefully phrased tweets. But Cruz, Hawley, Pence and the other Bitter-Enders have done far more lasting damage to Congress than the mob that — merely by following their lead — physically trashed it. Broken doors can be fixed. Broken parties cannot.
Above all there is the president, not complicit but wholly, undeniably and unforgivably responsible.
For five years, Republicans let him degrade political culture by normalizing his behavior. For five years, they let him wage war on democratic norms and institutions. For five years, they treated his nonstop mendacity as a quirk of character, not a disqualification for office. For five years, they treated his rallies as carnivals of democracy, not as training grounds for mob rule.
For five years, they thought this was costless. On Wednesday — forgive the cliché, but it’s apt here — their chickens came home to roost.
Every decent society depends for its survival on its ability to be shocked — and stay shocked — by genuinely shocking behavior. Donald Trump’s entire presidency has been an assault on that idea.
There is only one prescription for it now. Impeach the president and remove him from office now. Ban him forever from office now. Let every American know that, in the age of Trump, there are some things that can never be allowed to stand, most of all Trump himself.

The Republican Party, the entity associated with Ronald Reagan, the Double Bushes and Donald J. Trump, was jerked to Jesus January 6th, 2021 with the defeat of not one, but two, Republican senatorial candidates in the Deep South state of Georgia.
David “Pious” Perdue and Kelly “Billionaire” Loeffler were sent to the political showers by Rev. Raphael Warnock, an in-your-face black activist, and Jon Ossoff, a 33-year-old progressive Jew who is an investigative journalist and documentary producer.
What-the-hell? is that all about? Democrats won? In Georgia?
Four words are the sole reasons for this stunning political upset, and the reasons the U.S. senate swapped from Republican to Democratic Party control. The four words: Donald Trump AND Stacey Abrams.
President Donald Trump did everything he thought he had to do to make sure the two incumbent Republican senators were re-elected. He verbally pounded their opponents, tweeted constantly about the race and how important it was to HIS agenda (forgetting/ignoring he’s on his way out), made several appearances at rallies where he juiced the effort that indicated he was promoting their candidacies and raised money he said would help their advertising efforts in the runoff.
Therein lies a big part of the problem. Trump does not know when to shut up, when to turn off his verbose tweeter and let nature take its course. He badmouthed the Democratic candidates to the point that some on-the-fence-sitters felt sorry for them and cast pity votes; at rallies he talked about the injustices he has suffered rather than concentrate on Perdue’s and Loeffler’s re-election efforts; he raised money, but a lion’s share went into his personal “campaign” chest.
The announcement in the weeks before the election that Loeffler had reached billionaire status, and that Perdue had become even richer during the economic downturn did not help their chances.
But, on the other side of the political equation, there is Abrams, who saw voter suppression ploys by the state Republican Party eliminate her chance to be Georgia governor in 2018. Rather than wailing and whining about that obvious injustice, she decided to change the system with her get-out-the-vote campaign. Her efforts resulted in historic voter registration and in turnout, which led to not only two Democratic senators from the state being elected, but also in the control of the U.S. Senate moving from the GOP to the Democratic Party.
Furthermore, by kowtowing to Trump’s whims and wiles, members of the party he most recently adopted, finds itself on the slippery slope to maintaining any national significance.
Do you see it? Do you see the writing in the Capitol rotunda?
There is no more Republican Party; it does not exist. There is the Party of Trump, and there is the other so-called Republicans who believe in fiscal responsibility and compassionate conservatism. Divided they have no concentrated power; working on opposite agendas, they are murmurs in a hurricane. Shrinking their base instead of becoming more inclusive guarantees – GUARANTEES! – they become an also-ran in any national discussion or election.
If you are a Donald Trump supporter, give him kudos for starting a new political party that will continue to have a divisive impact in isolated political races, but are mere noisy and noxious verbal flatulence in races and issues of national importance.
If you believe the Democrats stole the 2020 presidential election and the Georgia senatorial races, you are double-dead-dog wrong. Blame two people for that political miracle: Donald Trump and Stacey Abrams.
And all of those elements can be directly attributed as a big part of the reason his hand-picked candidates lost, and Democrats control the executive and legislative branches of government beginning January 20, 2011.

RT is a Russian state owned and operated enterprise which conducts operations in the US and other Western countries. It produces and infuses a mix of propaganda, National Inquirer stories and rattlesnake venom into the Western media-stream for consumption by the credulous – of which there have been a growing number ever since we stopped teaching civics to junior high students.
Originally known as Russia Today, the operation was rebranded “RT” a couple of years before it became acceptable to traipse around Trump Tower wearing Chinese polypropylene gimme-caps stenciled with recycled Reagan campaign slogans. Putin’s internet house-organ has enjoyed an enormous surge in growth and popularity during the Trump era. (e.g.)
RT’s remit is perhaps no more sinister (but certainly no less) than its counterparts like the US Information Service and the State Department. Think of RT as MSNBC (or FOX) operating in the DRPK but with a constrained budget, limited access to talent, and a management composed of CIA operatives.
The following was submitted to RT’s website using the ‘share your comments’ button.
Me? I always have comments.

Gentlemen and Ladies:
I get the idea about how if you’re able to turn the US into as big of a dumpster fire as Russia that it will facilitate your efforts to continue holding up Mother Russia to your own MAGA class as The Best Dumpster Fire Over All The Rest of The Dumpster Fires. I’ll also admit that it’s not the worst strategy; but let’s face it, that sort of thing didn’t get you guys to the moon first, did it?
Unfortunately, you’re laboring under more than a few misapprehensions about the American character. I’m going to describe the most central one to you. Hacking our computer systems is child’s play when it comes to hacking a MAGA.
Look, the MAGAs are pretty stupid – we all know that – but if you think you’re going to Radio Free Europe them into doing predictably stupid shit you’re in for a rude surprise. Very rude. I’m talking Trotsky spotting that ice axe moments before it sunk into his head.
You can’t trick people in rural Alabama into doing what you want them to do, every time. They are as unpredictable as drunk Cossacks. More. To be sure, this time they were with you. But next time, who knows? Figuring these things can be subtle and subtlety is not exactly engrained in the Russian spirit, now is it? My friends, had the hillbillies in South Carolina still been drinking moonshine instead of speed balling oxy and meth – Trump may very well have died on the vine. Did you chess masters consider that when you were putting this whole thing together?
You certainly didn’t give it much thought after you won I imagine. But victory in America is fleeting, gold-precious, and though it occasionally goes to the lucky, usually it goes to the smart. And we have a saying here in the U.S.A. that goes like this:
You were lucky this time.
Fellas, the Manchurian Candidate was a movie script, OK? It’s not going to work more than once. There are too many variables. You boychiks are good at arithmetic, right? Model it out.
What I’m doing here is warning you that if it feels like you’ve got Billy Bob and Martha Rae figured out, you don’t. If MAGAS could be figured out, we’d have already done it and started making them do what we wanted them to do.
Face it, you lucked out. This is not chess, boys. And you can’t stake your political goals on a bunch of fucking idiots.
Ask Donald Trump.

COVID-19 has demonstrated one thing — the United States cannot win a war against an adversary — be it a nation or a virus.
This country’s response Covid has been a complete failure. We have more cases and deaths even though other countries have bigger populations and less resources.
We can say that this is because of poor leadership by President Trump. While Trump contributed to the failure, he is not the big reason for the failure.
We have met the enemy and it is us — the American people.
Thank God – World War II was fought by America’s greatest generation. If my generations and the following generations had been responsible for winning WWII, we would be speaking German today.
COVID demonstrated that today the American people can’t fight their way out of a wet paper bag.
While the US military is still the best military in the world, that is less than 10% of the country’s population. Health care workers have done their job but that is less than 20% of the population. The rest of us, the majority of the country, have demonstrated we are unfit for duty.
Our COVID failure points out our county’s critical weaknesses:
Lack of Leadership – Trump said he was a war-time president but he did not manage the COVID problem like you would manage a war. The old saying goes: Lead, follow or get out of the way. Trump just layed down across the road and went to sleep.
While this was a problem. A much bigger problem is the attitude of the American people.
To win a war you must be united. During WWII Americans were united. Our parents demonstrated character and discipline. There was a spirit of shared sacrifice.
Today the United States is at war with itself. Both political parties put party above country. Both parties would rather fight to the death against each other party rather than do something good for the country.
Today rural America is in a war with metropolitan America.
The hatred of Americans for Americans has never been more intense since the Civil War.
Sadly the pandemic has shown the United States is a nation in decline. The US is on a trajectory to take it from the World Superpower to the newest banana republic.

Roots Music Report chart of Best Acoustic Blues Albums of 2020!
Congratulation Steve Howel, Dan Sumner, Jason Weinheimer, David Dodson
From Steve Howell
Hey! Just got some great news! “Long Ago” #15 and “History Rhymes” #66 made the Roots Music Report chart of Best Acoustic Blues Albums of 2020! This is based on radio airplay reporting. Dan Sumner, Jason Weinheimer, David Dodson, and I are very grateful to all of the DJ’s who played our records this year. More to come once things turn around pandemic-wise.
Normally during the last week of each year I post “Year In Review” articles on the website. This year I did not do that because in some ways 2020 did not happen. To be more precise the last 3-months of 2020 did not happen.
2020 did start off like years always do. In January and February I shot events on my normal shoot list. In late February we left for Florida as we have done for the last 5 years. When I returned in mid-March the world had changed.
By the time I returned to Marshall, all of the events I normally shoot in the Spring had been cancelled. Cancellations continue through the rest of the year. My photography year was over. Normally I shoot between 30,000 and 40,000 images a year. This year the number was less than 5,000.
In the past I tried to write an article every week or two. I don’t recall writing any articles in 2020. I am sure that some of you are now thinking — well at least one good thing happened in 2020.
It was a very bad year for EastTexasExposed. In a regular year at least 60 percent of the content for the site is driven by event photography. That went to zero. I quit writing about the city when they move to virtual meetings. One thing have we learned for sure is content drives readership.
In early March the site had 3000 to 5000 unique visitors per day. By September the number had dropped to 500 to 1000 visitors. While the numbers have improved some in the fourth quarter, the number of visits is still below 2000 visits each day.
So EastTexasExposed.com has a hole to dig out of in 2021.
We have used our time over the last few months to enhance the site:
During the last quarter of 2020 we completely rewrote the “php” code for EastTexasExposed. The code was over 5-year old and badly in need of attention.
We have worked to change the graphic mix of the site from 100 percent photos to a mix of photos and videos. Since surveys show that more people now prefer video, we will continue to increase the video percentage.
We have integrated the website with social media including facebook, instagram, youtube, twitter and a WordPress blog. We feel this will increase our potential audience.
Finally, Dr. Jim Harris allows us to publish his COVID-19 Update daily. This is a valuable document that should be read by all of us.
In summary, like most people and organizations, 2020 was not a good year for EastTexasExposed. We recognized that things don’t change overnight. There is very little difference between December 31, 2020 and January 1, 2021. All the problems we faced yesterday are in large part still there today. But there is finally light at the end of the tunnel. Six to nine months from now we will reach the “new norm.”
Happy New Years 2021!

— At 12:01 a.m. Jan. 1, for the first time ever, everything was truly hindsight 2020.
— Buckle your seatbelts. 2021 won’t be 2020 but then, no other year has been either. One thing is sure: “Different” has been a way of life for almost a year. Everybody is ready, I believe, for a different “different” than the “different” experienced last year.
— if you are a member of the Republican Party, after January 20, you have a decision to make: Are you going to be a traditional “Republican” or join whatever party Trump will form? Either way, your influence in national politics will be severely curtailed.
If you stay a loyal member of the GOP, you must figure out how to expand your base in order to be relevant; if you are a die-hard MAGAist, you are a cohort of racists, neo-Nazis, crazed evangelists and QAnon conspiracists.
— Remember: There is a difference between a socialist and a democratic socialist. America is a democratic socialist republic. It is. Seriously. Look it up. Go on! Google it!
— If you are tired of old rich men and women like McConnell, Schumer, Pelosi, Collins, Gohmert, et al, gumming up the works of the federal government…we are on the same page.
— Ditto if you believe it is wrong for one person to have the power to prevent a bill, any bill, from coming to a vote so our elected officials have to record a vote.
— Ditto again if you believe that politicians who lie, lie about lying and refuse to own up and label themselves a liar should not only be summarily dismissed from the public position they hold but also should be publicly flogged with a graphite fly rod.
May 2021 be the Year of the Do Right Revolutions, a movement where folks pledge to “do right” in their personal and professional lives.
