A pandemic will NEVER fully come under control -- NO MATTER WHO IS PRESIDENT -- unless there is full compliance by the populace. not only is there a very large non-compliance, but actual deliberate resistance to making America safe, despite the efforts of the Biden administration.
Fubah2 is right. Pandemic is a collective problem that can only be solved by collective remedy. Infection anywhere can become infection everywhere. Failure in collective action has hamstrung US pandemic response. The result of division is a patchwork of different responses with Americans fighting each other instead of the pandemic. Selfishness has been costly. Currently, almost half of all states have vaccine mandates issued by either federal, state, municipal or private sector. But if Biden employer limited mandate is implemented for next 6 months, estimated 6500 deaths and 250,000 hospitalizations could be prevented.

Exactly, thirdperson!
We know *HOW* to effectively manage the pandemic (that was created under trump-regime) but knowing *HOW* and the actual "compliance" required for it to succeed is not the same thing. Resistance by portions of the population in various states is holding America back.

Kaiser Family Foundation for research analysis has found that: 85% of adults who are Democrats are fully vaccinated55% of adults who are Republicans are fully vaccinated
Our northern neighbors, Canadians have 76.5% rate of fully Covid-19 vaccination. Even Brazil beats U.S., 64.2% vs 59.7%.

Key is that both Brazilians and Canadians trust their public health system and see vaccination as patriotic duty. Doctors are seen as public servants for common good instead of businessmen trying to maximize profits.

Let's also talk about wait times in Canada compared to the US.
Let's also talk about Canadian citizens coming to the US for more complicated surgeries.
Let's also talk about the taxes in Canada compared to the US.
Let's also talk about the land size of Canada compared to the US.
Let's also talk about the population of US being 10 times larger the Canada.

Vast majority of covid cases, hospitalizations and deaths occur in unvaccinated population. They are more likely to be reinfected or to infect others. Whereas vaccinated people are less likely to suffer severe illness. Overwhelmed hospitals need to ration or delay healthcare for patients. Political affiliation matters more than age, race and education in determining whether someone receives a vaccine dose. Public health experts consider vaccines the only way out of pandemic but population vaccination rates are too low.

wait times in Canada compared to the US. Canadian citizens coming to the US for surgeries. taxes in Canada compared to the US.
Overall, Canada is ranked ahead of US in healthcare system according to US-based Commonwealth fund. Although wait time is longer in Canada, US rations healthcare by price while Canadian doctors first treat patients who are most sick. Better to be on a waiting list in Canada instead of being uninsured in the US.
Only a tiny minority of Canadians travel to the US for healthcare. Vast majority of Canadians stay home. More Americans travel to Canada to buy cheap drugs. Polls show Canadians are more satisfied with their healthcare system than Americans. Besides, life expectancy is higher in Canada.
For a universal system, taxes are a fairer way for funding than insurance premiums. No Canadian becomes bankrupt because of medical bills. Canada spends less on healthcare as percentage of GDP while insuring a larger share of population. US has the most unaffordable and wasteful healthcare system in the world with millions of Americans under insured.

This is a bunch of lies.
Data from Iceland proves that. Cannot find U.S. data that shows daily vaxed vs unvaxed without "since Jan 1" or this small percentage of vaccinated have had infection, etc. Back in August Michigan and Illinois said 28% and 30% of hospitalizations were vaccinated, after that silence. They won't say.
Iceland vaccination rate 76.8%. Last 7 days 56.2% of COVID cases were vaccinated. This is typical of all summer data. Vast majority my azz.
According to the San Franciso liberal org KFF, Black's have just made it to the 50% vaccinated point lagging behind all other races. Michigan's recent surge has been inner cities.

Well said, thirdperson. Universal health insurance (UHI) has prevailed among almost all of the western nations, except U.S., and industrialized countries around the world. The UHI system won't be so popular in these majority countries if it's deeply flawed, to the contrary the system saves millions of people's lives.

Hospitals are busier than ever — but not because of COVID
Little of this surge is driven by COVID infections, even as cases rise across the state. Instead, patients are flooding hospitals with every kind of problem — heart attacks, strokes, drug overdoses, suicidal thoughts, broken bones, infections, and COVID. Many had put off medical care during the pandemic and came to the hospital only when they could no longer bear to stay home.

NY’s vaccine mandates led to roughly 50,000 healthcare workers losing their jobs — more to come
Now we’re seeing this
“A surge in COVID-19 cases and a shortage of health care workers is filling hospitals and nursing homes past their capacity in upstate New York, creating a growing crisis in the health care system even before the omicron variant is known to have spread through the area, according to hospital executives from Buffalo to Albany.”
