Cuomo: Public should be 'very skeptical' about COVID-19 vaccine
The Hill ^ | 10 19 2020 | Zack Budryk

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) said Monday he was “not that confident” in the approval process for a possible coronavirus vaccine in place at the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

Cuomo also cast doubt on the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), stating that both the CDC and FDA are seen less credibly under the Trump administration.

The New York governor, whose state has suffered tens of thousands of deaths from the coronavirus, also said the public lacks faith in how the administration will handle vaccine development.

"I'm not that confident, but my opinion doesn't matter. I don't believe the American people are that confident," Cuomo said Monday on ABC’s “Good Morning America.” "I think it's going to be a very skeptical American public about taking the vaccine, and they should be.”

The governor said both the FDA and CDC “don’t have any credibility” under the Trump administration and that as a result others will need to vouch for a vaccine for people to have trust in it.

“I believe all across the country you're going to need someone other than this FDA and this CDC saying it's safe," he said.

In other words, old people, you’re going to die under Trump, so vote Biden.

Cuomo the Snake-Oil Salesman strikes again. He & Fake-shi need to be on a desert island together.

Cuomo should not play politics with this disease. These comments are outrageous and ignorant of how a vaccine or therapeutic gets approved.

Cuomo and Democrats do not care if people die. Getting Trump is far, far more important. They are politicizing anything and everything regardless of consequences to get Trump. They are evil.

If Trump supported vaccines, they can’t be any good. If Trump supported the drinking of water, Cuomo would say we should all desiccate ourselves. Cuomo is a quart of virulent stinking yellow pus exuded by diseased swine.

Hmm, will Twitter and Facebook block this this? After all, it is contrary to “the science!”?

The Left:
This summer “Believe in Science, not politicians”
Today “Don’t believe in Science. Listen to the politicians”

Skeptical about what the CDC claims about the vaccine, but not of their claims about the virus it self.

Yeah, let's go with that ...

If you're anti vaccine, I have no problem with that.

But if this vaccine is still subject to the same standards as other vaccines have been, then Cuomo is being a hypocritical a$$.

Yup. Cuomo offers no scientific specifics about any problems with the approval process.
