More incoherent, COVID-related, Gobldygook from Abbott

"So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth."
Revelation 3:16

We have questions:

Texas Governor @GregAbbott_TX says the first shipments of a COVID-19 vaccine should arrive in December.

Here is the initial plan and a list of people who will be first-in-line to receive the vaccine in Texas. pic.twitter.com/EZrPxmFZZJ

For the sake of discussion, we're going to assume those first three categories are fine. We've seen some questions raised on social media about how those terms are defined. Certainly, that's relevant. But, in terms of a macro-perspective, those populations are certainly where you should start distribution.

But, as far as those other categories are concerned, off the top of our head:

• Who's going to determine "health inequities" and isn't that a vague catch-all phrase that can mean anything to anyone?!?

• Why should we believe Abbott will pursue "data driven allocations" when there's considerable evidence he doesn't understand his own data?!?

• Why is "geographic diversity" a thing in the first place?!?  There's significant evidence that COVID spreads farther and faster in urban areas.  Shouldn't they get priority...especially if we're doing "data driven allocations?!?"

• At this point, re: COVID, the idea that Abbott's will be anything remotely resembling "transparent" is laughable.
• Note: See here for starters.

Bottom Line: None of the details from today's announcement make any sense...but that's also nothing new.
