Trump says he's 'very appreciative' and 'surprised' Biden thanked previous administration for helping make the COVID vaccine available to the public

Donald Trump on Tuesday evening said he was 'very appreciative' of President Joe Biden paying tribute to his administration's efforts to create the vaccine - adding that he was 'surprised to hear it'.

'Thanks to the prior administration and our scientific community, America is one of the first countries to get the vaccine,' said Biden. ...

...The 75-year-old - who on Sunday was booed when he confirmed he had had the booster shot - said Americans should be 'really happy' about having access to vaccines.

'When we came up with these incredible vaccines - three of them - and therapeutics, we did a tremendous job, and we should never disparage them,' Trump said.

'We should be really happy about it because we've all saved millions and millions of lives all over the world.'

Trump in May 2020 announced Operation Warp Speed (OWS) - a partnership between the Departments of Health and Human Services and Defense - aimed to help accelerate the development of a COVID-19 vaccine.

OWS has invested an estimated $18 billion, mostly in the late-stage clinical development and early manufacturing of COVID-19 vaccines, and has agreements in place to buy 455 million doses.

The scheme is by far the largest of the global efforts for development of COVID-19 vaccines....

...Trump in December 2020 also signed an executive order that would ensure all Americans had access to coronavirus vaccines before the U.S. government could begin aiding nations around the world.

If Trump thought it was a ‘hoax’ he wouldn’t have gotten a booster.

The current admin’s mishandling of the pandemic, resulting in 500K deaths under Biden, can’t be blamed on Trump. This is Trump’s fifth or sixth call in as many months for his supporters to get vaccinated. And those that DO support Trump will not stop pointing that out.

The Biden admin could never outdo the negative attention that is being drawn to Trump by rabid antivaxers who claim they are Trump supporters, but aren’t, because they’re too busy doing the socialists’ job for them by creating the appearance that it’s unvaxed Republicans who are responsible for disease spread and the illusion that the vaccine is more harmful than the virus. It’s a Biden you aint black. only it’s you ain’t ‘merican if you’re vaxed. Here’s a scary story that can’t be replicated. Narcisstic blather. When it was the Trump Republicans that got the vaccines out the door, and testing, equally trashed by antivaxers, accepted by the public as an alternative to vaccination so that people could return to work.

Vaccines that, as Trump said, saved millions of lives around the world and a historic leap of molecular science that enabled other nations to develop their own vaccines saving millions more lives. And a return to work that saved the economy from disaster.

btw, ‘plandemic’ was a term coined in March 2020 by an idiot named Larry Cook and is old, tired and worn around the edges. Go swim with some seawater microbes and you’ll be saved from 5G mind control. :)

No one can tell what your cryptic message was supposed to mean least of all me. So, it’s a little hard to lie about you. But you figured out a way to insult just about everyone and no one at the same time. Genius. /s

Get yourself a tutor and maybe it can cure your lack of ability to comprehend what you read.

Trump had a lockdown first thing - shutting international travel even while called a racist - He involuntarily quarantined the Wuhan and Princess travelers. On March 17 he asked employers to accomodate those who could work from home, and asked people to limit travel and groups to 10 or less. In fact, I think just about everyone on FR supported these actions.

Trump left the states to best handle their affairs as the Constitition dictates, but made sure they had all they needed. In April 2020, 43 governors - 24 dems and 19 reps - issued the first of their stay at home orders, As documented here:.

IF businesses and jobs were lost in individual states, that responsibility lies on the heads of the governors who managed their populations, not on Trump’s head. I certainly don’t hold Trump responsible for Newsom’s craziness.

Clearly means the dam is about to break about what a mistake the vaccine was.

Must be about to announce that vaccines are worthless and even harmful and it’s all Trumps fault

15 days to slow the spread? Pence heading up his task force? Pushing the clot shots? Fauci and Birx in the news daily? Bypassing all those years of vaccine safety tests? EUAs despite all the safe and effective alternatives that his CDC squelched while paying hospitals massively to do deadly things?

Maybe help is on the way and Joe knows it.

“After nearly two years, scientists at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research believe they have developed a vaccine that is effective against all COVID and SARS variants.

Researchers at Walter Reed expect to officially announce the completion of the vaccine in the coming weeks, Defense One first reported.

The Army began working on the Spike Ferritin Nanoparticle COVID-19 vaccine (SpFN) in early 2020.

From the beginning, they worked to create a vaccine that would protect against all existing and potential variants of the viruses.

The lab completed animal trials earlier this year with positive results before being approved for Phase 1 of human trials in April 2021. “

“800,000+ dead from the vaxx”

Really? Is that number from the Secret Vax Death Hotline?

Inquiring minds wanna know! Sources!

Precisely.

The reported new Army vaccine will be sending the kooks into overdrive. A whole new batch of scary words that will set their hair on fire.

I dunno what gets them so excited. We, the vaxxed sheep, are all going to die from the Toxic Vax Poison Jabs, leaving the Earth to the ‘purebloods’. That has to be my new favorite term. The entertainment never stops.

Hey how soon is this mass dropping dead going to be? If it’s like next month I’ll take up smoking again. And ice cream.
