The Biden administration has signed a $137 million contract with a pharmaceutical company for the purpose of building a factory for COVID-19 test strip materials, a White House official confirmed to FOX Business on Wednesday.

But the new facility will not start churning out the materials for three years, according to the company. If the timeline is correct, the deal will not alleviate the administration's scramble to make more tests available in the near future amid a lack of supply for Americans. The administration is under fire for reportedly rejecting a deal in October that would have strongly ramped up the supply of COVID tests. ..."

Democrats don’t want the factory or the tests. They create problems, claim to be the only ones to solve them then don’t do it because they need the issue for the next election, and the next, and...

Biden doesn’t understand the concept of WARP SPEED. He’s used to the standard government “we’re takin’ our sweet time” standard.

With masks sure, but with vaccines those take 10 years on average for a reason.

Why? Everyone will have natural immunity, or have been vaxxed to death by then.

Why; who owns the company?

Why; who collects the kickbacks?

Why? Who is paying The Big Guy his 10%?

Why? Does Pelosi plan to buy call options in the company?

First of all, we don’t need this. Second: We built the world’s largest building, The Pentagon, in a swamp in 15 months.

“Warp speed” just means without proper vetting.

Warp speed medicine didn’t sound good to me. Glad I took a wait and see approach. Said they eliminated waiting period delays but aren’t these needed to see if side effects are developing?

3 years? Three years to build.

In other words they are anticipating this scamdemic limbo for another 3 years or longer?

Yup. It won’t ever end. At least until we have lost all of our liberties, and are a full Communist country.

Smooth move....the factory should be up & going by the time a new, unrelated virus comes along. Maybe we will get a new president who will cancel the deal.
