I've been away for a couple hours. As I was driving back home I was thinking, "Ron Klain needs to be made COVID czar." Somebody needs to be COVID czar. There is no one in the diffuse health care bureaucracies who has the big picture. Someone with the expertise to know what data to demand and is given the authority to demand it. Klain is not an expert but he would quickly become one." Data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention shows that breakthrough infections remain rare." (WaPo). Hmm, hold up there Chief. CDC stopped tracking infections just as Delta dawned. They actually have no fucking idea if "breakthrough infections remain rare." With your report on these three added to Lindsey Graham, 66 years old, this only makes 2% of the United States Senate. Still rare. Now, if any of these elderly gents goes to hospital CDC will be publishing a thoroughly vetted study on the Senate breakthrough outbreak in about four months. No autopsy no case.

Three Senators Breakthrough + for COVID-19
Roger Wicker (R-Miss.), 70 years old, Angus King (I-Maine), 77, and John Hickenlooper, (D-Colo), 69. Wicker got tested after "mild symptoms", per his office; King is "not feeling great", and Hickenlooper "feels good."
