Vaccines delivered to wrong address
Vaccines left in the driveway
Boxes of vaccines found in a dumpster
Vaccines not delivered because gate code was not given
Vaccines delivered 1 week after promised delivery date
Vaccines thaw from the -74 degrees F.
Box of vaccine is mistaken for pizza (it is reported the boxes will be similar to pizza boxes)

Maybe they end up delivering a lot more than everyone thinks.

They vaccine “briefcases” as my ups buddy told me last 10 days from initial pickup. Then After it’s opened keep vaccine cold for another 5 days. I want to say each one has 5-10k of vaccines in it. They have building storage facilities since early summer. Your average driver is not delivering these.

USPS is the worst

At this point I am sure you and most of the PT board just want this all to go wrong so you can somehow blame Biden.

Not much. Never had any problem with either. FedEx is generally fantastic.

As a driver, this shite would always piss me off.

UPS has been more consistent with on time delivery where I live.
Fedex misses delivery dates by a day, sometimes 2 days and is less careful handling packages.

You think they are dropping these deliveries off on the front steps of hospitals or something?

Take a guess who delivering the shipments of ventilators, PPE, COVID swabs, and the tens of millions of doses of the vaccine already deployed to hospitals across the country.

The same fricking people. Take a lap.

Have you been living under a rock for 4 years? That’s exactly what liberals have done to Trump about literally everything he’s done that is positive

I’m more worried about your average just above minimum wage pharmacy techs at CVS and Walgreens handing out these ever important, life preserving shots to the masses.

I think you are confusing UPS and FedEx with the USPS.

This.
I like how the media is saying their won’t be enough supply but that is not the case at all. The problem is the supply chain line doesn’t have enough refrigeration to keep the vials at -20*c. They have been building fridges all over the place but in some areas they reached out to labs to house the vials. We are going to get a few thousand as we have the fridges and space to store.

Just stencil in 2020 Ballots on the side of the box and they will get delivered.

Trump will have them building fridges so that everyone who need a fridge will have them. Warehouses of extras stacked next to ventilators. And still somehow they won’t get used.

That’s an odd thing to worry about, for odd reasons.

Do you worry about them the rest of the year to give you your medication?
Pretty sure they make double minimum wage btw and most are in Pharmacy school.

Do you trust a police officer, firefighter, EMS to save your life? Not sure what you think they make an
hour.
