AOC Gives ''Loony-Tunes'' Answer Dismissing Organized Looting Mobs Last year, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) blamed a New York crime wave on people who "feel like they either need to shoplift some bread or go hungry." She''s at it again. In a Friday interview with the Washington Times , AOC dismissed reports of "organized retail theft" as nothing more than "allegations" that are "not actually panning out." " A lot of these allegations of organized retail theft are not actually panning out ," said the Democratic socialist. "I believe its a Walgreens in California cited it, but the data didnt back it up." Apparently AOC doesn''t read much , or she''s just lying again. Last Friday alone, San Francisco Bay Area officials made "one of the largest retail theft busts in California history," with upwards of $8 million in merchandise recovered from CVS, Target and Walgreens according to Breitbart . "This level of violence has taken it to a whole new level," according to CA Retailers Association President Rachel Michelin , adding "No one has seen this before." Retail outlet groups and politicians equally blasted Ocasio-Cortez for her dismissal of the problem. Respectfully, the Congresswoman has no idea what she is talking about.

The holiday season also heralds the season of sniffles. The world is facing its second flu season during the global COVID-19 pandemic; while cases of the flu remained low last year, scientists and doctors don''t expect this trend to last . Flu season, which peaks from December to February , is marked by increased numbers of respiratory infections, usually caused by the influenza virus. Typical symptoms include fever, chills, cough, sore throat, runny nose, muscle aches, headaches and fatigue. The flu spreads mainly by droplets made when people who are infected cough, sneeze or talk . It can also spread through contact with infected surfaces followed by touching the mouth, nose or eyes. Because the flu virus mutates every year , individuals have to receive annual vaccines in order to ensure immunity. There are many reasons why experts believe the flu season could potentially be worse this year. Last year''s season saw a steep decline in cases due to lockdowns and other public health precautions against COVID-19.

Watch Video Across the country, medical workers are struggling to keep up. At a hospital system near Detroit, relief workers from the Pentagon are coming in to help. And as Americans line up for booster shots, pharmacies are scrambling to staff strained vaccination sites. The bottleneck is ripe to get worse as President Biden pushes booster shots as part of a renewed COVID strategy headed into winter. Thats a welcome message for health professionals, but stressful for pharmacy leaders. CVS tells Newsy its onboarding 20,000 new employees right now, and boosted its hourly pay to attract workers. Walgreens tells us it, too, boosted its hourly pay and is offering a thousand-dollar bonus to pharmacists who are or become certified to administer the vaccine. The Kaiser Family Foundation just found a huge jump in the number of vaccinated adults who have their booster. Its about a quarter now way up from just 10 percent in October. And some 56 percent more say they definitely or probably will get it.
