It hasn’t just been Vice President Mike Pence contradicting the president’s statements, his health and human services secretary Alex Azar has weighed in with his own corrections to Trump’s false promises.
On Monday the 2nd of March, Trump and his Coronavirus Task Force Members met with pharmaceutical company bosses and public health officials at the White House where he pressed them to develop and deploy a vaccine as soon as possible.
He then promptly suggested a vaccine for Covid-19 will be available “over the next few months”. Azar quickly pointed out “You won’t have a vaccine. You’ll have a vaccine to go into testing.” Dr Fauci and others at the meeting confirmed that clinical trials, standard for any new vaccine, would have to take place first. A vaccine is more likely to be a year or 18 months away.
Despite this and the World Health Organization (WHO) already saying it will take up to 18 months to develop a vaccine for Covid-19, a time frame much shorter than the usual two- to five-year window, Trump would, that evening, tell a rally in North Carolina that there will be a vaccine “relatively soon”.
So, as this article clearly shows, it’s better to take the word of someone like Dr Anthony Fauci with his wealth of experience and knowledge, than a wildly unprepared and woefully uneducated president that has consistently shown his lack of knowledge and his even more lacking comprehension of how viruses and vaccines actually work.
It was completely predictable: the world is suffering from a pandemic at the time the USA has an idiot for president. When will we ever learn? The citizens of this country are no longer capable of choosing their own commander-in-chief.
Something of this nature was bound to happen. What do we have leading this nation in this time of crisis? A total idiot. The people of this nation do not appear to be capable of choosing our leader.
Donald Trump at the helm of this nation during a world-wide pandemic, still spreading his ignorance. God help us all.
I love this article! Kiddos to whoever wrote it. Finally, the facts along with Trumps actual statements are in print for everyone to read!
65% of Americans polled believe Trump is doing a great job. The vast majority of these individuals are Republicans.
Fox News is partly responsible for this. However, a great deal is due to the ignorance of Americans.
We are fortunate to live in the greatest country in the world and take it for granted.
We have a responsibility to honor and protect our democracy.
We have allowed a snake oil salesman to turn the United States of America into a third world country through racial bigotry, economic inequality, and greed.
God will save His children and will not be mocked by a man who claims to know God.
So-called Evangelical Christians need to wake up and speak out against his presidency rather than behaving like Pharisees and Sadducees. God did not place him there!!!!
God’s plan for our lives will come to fruition if we believe in Him.
Please, pray for our country and our world.
Be blessed.
Churchill – “We will never surrender.”
Roosevelt – “We have nothing to fear but fear itsel”
Kennedy – “Ask what you can do for your country.”
trump – “I take no responsibility.”
AT same time the Congress left session and abandoned their constituents. They are too infested with racism and xenophobia that it’s truly hurting America. I wouldn’t lie to you. Most of them are motivationally deficient and differently logical and therefore not worth their salt. They did nothing for the prior h1n1 and swine flu pandemics and could not concieve any plan that is workable.
