Why on earth did Joe Fitzpatrick resign as the Scottish public health minister? One of the problems with politics is we have some people who do not resign when they should and other people who do resign when they shouldn’t. In the first category, obviously, is Derek Mackay (who is still an MSP) and Margaret Ferrier (who is still an MP) but there’s someone else who I think we should include in the second category: Joe FitzPatrick, the Scottish public health minister. Seriously: why on earth has he resigned? The immediate reason was the report that revealed the scale of Scotland’s drug-related deaths. The National Record Office said 1,264 deaths were registered in 2019, an increase of six per cent on 2018, and more than 3.5 times the rate of the UK as a whole. Mr FitzPatrick said the rising death toll was the most difficult problem he’d ever faced in the job.
Erie s eventual triumph over COVID-19 might have started Thursday afternoon with a quick poke in Tylesha Williams right arm.
Williams, a 26-year-old patient care technician at UPMC Hamot, is believed to be the first Erie County resident to have received the COVID-19 vaccine. She and nine coworkers were vaccinated during a short ceremony in the Erie hospital s ground-floor conference room.
Nine Saint Vincent Hospital employees were vaccinated late Thursday afternoon and additional staff at both hospitals were expected to receive the vaccines later in the day.

I m so happy there s a vaccine, so that I don t have a risk of transmitting it to my family or coworkers.

[ laughter ] jennifer rubin who writes the right turn column for the washington post and steven henderson of the detroit free press. you are here to represent the entire outside-the-belt way. [ laughter ] i want to start with a remarkable moment from jeb bush. let s see this whole thing again. if this election is about how we re going to fight to get nothing done i don t want to i don t want any part of it. i don t want to be elected president to sit around and see gridlock become so dominant that people literally are in decline in their lives. that is not my motivation. i ve got a lot of really cool things that i could do other than sit around being miserable listening to people demonize me and me feeling compelled to demonize them. that is a joke. elect trump if you want that. doris? whoa. yeah. i mean, compare that with how mccain handled himself in a similar situation in 07. he was cutting staff, as mr. bush has, his poll numbers has gone down, he was in a bad plac
