The White House is in the midst of a tense debate over whether or not to release the vaccine doses to other countries which have already approved the vaccine, according to The New York Times (NYT). About 30 million doses are ready at the company’s West Chester, Ohio, facility and enough vaccine for tens of millions more doses is reportedly ready in Baltimore, Maryland, at an Emergent BioSolutions facility.
More than 70 countries have already authorized use of the AstraZeneca vaccine, but its U.S. trial has yet to offer results and the company has not applied for emergency use authorization from the FDA.

Isn’t this the one causing blood clots?
Denmark, Norway and Iceland suspended use of this vaccine yesterday due to blood clots in elderly patients who received it.
Someone can have my dose. I am good.
Me too.
Pfizer and Moderna I think have close to 100,000,000 does give out or more. That’s what I had.
I think I’d be leery about being in the forefront of the Astra vaccine.
The idea of a “stockpile” is a false narrative if it hasn’t been approved for use here... but it’ll get used somewhere in the world, I guess.
Blood clots are good for you, citizen.
Now unite and take your jab!
The Army made me take the Anthrax vaccine.
The VA now says,
“Yes, the Army forced you to take the Anthrax vaccine.
Yes, it made you sick with blood clots.
This didn’t happen to everybody, so tough shirt.”
See what happens.
The safest depository for the magic-bullet vaccine is the toilet.
If you don’t take your vaccine, Big Brother will know.
Perhaps a concentration camp will fix your failure to conform to The Empire.
How do you “loan” doses of vaccine?
Was this vaccine the “Trump vaccine,” or in other words Trump’s preferred vaccine?
Did he more or less equally support the other vaccines?
Because it this is the “Trump vaccine,” I think we know why some countries are banning it.
They can’t be used on Americans. Use them on the illegal alien foreign invaders flooding in. Those freeloaders won’t know the difference.

Do you have any proof it causes blood clots?
Send it to NKorea.
And then see what other nations are paying per dose.
For some reason, our media isn't interested in asking.
Biden has already ordered enough for every person in the US, plus some more. We will be swimming in vaccine by June.
Typical government over reaction.
Give the AZ vaccine to Canada, which has already approved it.
Do you have any proof that it doesn’t?
