    @cstalberg I agree about the majority of the world (see my tweets on the subject). Re Bolivia…

      @cstalberg A half million doses of vaccine arrived today and sufficient vaccines for the adult population are slated for March thru May. The country, like the US, is reporting case declines since a mid-January peak, running ahead of the effects of vaccines. google.com/amp/s/www.infobae.com/america/america-latina/2021/02/24/ahora-a-vacunar-bolivia-recibio-500-mil-dosis-de-la-vacuna-china-sinopharm-contra-el-coronavirus/%3foutputType=amp-type

        @cstalberg COVID deaths are severely undercounted in Bolivia but the excess mortality there is ~30,000 deaths in 2020 alone. Equivalent to 900k in the US. So over twice as bad as in the US. Very much the product of economic inequality and inadequate medical resources.

          @cstalberg To clarify: Current vaccination plans mean that US started two months ahead of Bolivia, is currently ahead (w first doses to 14%) but could complete adult vaccination well behind Bolivia.
