Harris says Biden administration 'didn't seen omicron coming'
The Hill ^ | 17 December 2021 | CAROLINE VAKIL

Posted on 12/17/2021 8:57:47 PM PST by blueplum

Vice President Harris said in an interview with the Los Angeles Times on Friday that the Biden administration “didn’t see omicron coming," referring to a coronavirus variant that has rapidly made its way across the U.S.....

...Harris, however, defended the Biden administration’s response to COVID-19 amid concerns from health officials who worried that the president may have claimed victory against the virus too soon, telling the newspaper “we have not been victorious over it.”

“I don’t think that in any regard anyone can claim victory when, you know, there are 800,000 people who are dead because of this virus,” she told The Times....

Harris throwing shade and drawing blood, as she distances herself, as she does with most issues, from the Admin's pandemic response

International travel and the Refugee Convention should have been suspended.

Better and wider distribution of the vaccines should have been made in Africa.

France is on it. They are sending a million doses of J&J they don’t want in their country and sending it to Africa.

Wait, I thought it was the “Harris-Biden” administration. She hasn’t stopped stabbing Joe in the back since the first debate. She has no responsibility, authority or accountability. She’s a token.

more over-hyping of omicron, that’s all.

Dr. Malone ends the segment below (the last few minutes) with some clear explanations as to why omicron is a blessing. let it rip. sooner it moves through populations the better.

20m39s in: Laura with Dr. Robert Malone. ends 27m30s.

Many of us remember the first stories out of Africa where the medical team that discovered the "variant" were VERY careful to stress that it was very mild.

We see what happened once the Leftist media got ahold of it.

Didn't "seen" it coming? Talking to that medieval French god-dude again, or at a black church?

Actually, it's just the Hill either assuming she's playing black or the editors don't know standard Enlish. The headline reads "seen" but the body of the article quotes her saying that the Administration "didn’t see omicron coming." So Camel-a gets a pass on this one.

Btw, why all the sudden press for the illustrious VP? Something's going on.

Better and wider distribution of the vaccines should have been made in Africa.

Except we did - Africa has 1.2 billion people. over 250 million doses were donated and shipped thru Covax as of Sep 2021. More millions of doses were donated directly by the US, UK, France, Germany, China, blah blah blah.

Africa initially was low priority, not because of racism, but because the median age in many AFrican countries is below 20 years old. And therefore the least at risk. While in western countries it was primarily elderly that were most at risk.

Additionally, if one recalls, there were some African leaders who were doing the whole, 'we won't be white man's guinea pigs' when the vaccines first came out, which slowed uptake of donated doses

guiltripping the white man over vaccines is just racebaiting

Imagine their being so suspicious and selfish! That is so-oo uncharitable of them!
