“The current vaccines available in the United States are effective against all known variants.”

Unproven claim. The vaccines were released under emergency authorization.

The clinical trials are by definition substandard. Otherwise we wouldn’t need special authorization for release.

You have no idea what you’re talking about.

First, Emergency Use Authorization is just one of four separate - long established - FDA path for making new medicines rapidly available. It’s been around and used for decades, along with the other three.

Second, the clinical trials are not “substandard”. They’re full Phase 1, Phase 2, and Phase 3 clinical trials. The difference when you’re on one of the accelerated tracks is that there’s no FDA bureaucrat asleep at his desk instead of reviewing your paperwork so you can move forward. The clinical trials had over 100,000 participants between the US and the UK. They began over a year ago with the first vaccine doses given March 16, 2020.

Third, yes they are effective against the different variants. Studies have already been conducted demonstrating that:

You’re peddling fear and nonsense against the vaccines President Trump fought for and championed.
