Scaramucci Credits Biden For COVID-19 Vaccine Breakthrough

Pfizer Inc. and partner BioNTech announced their mRNA-based COVID-19 vaccination. The news comes days after Joe Biden was announced as the projected winner over Trump in the 2020 election, which sparked a political debate over who to credit for the vaccine breakthrough.

Anthony Scaramucci, Donald Trump’s former Director of Communications, tweeted recognition to president-elect Joe Biden for developing a COVID-19 vaccination.

Scaramucci’s position as Trump’s Director of Communication was very brief as he was let go after 11 days. Scaramucci has been an outspoken critic of Donald Trump since.

Pfizer did not join Operation Warp Speed, a partnership initiated by the Trump administration, to facilitate and accelerate the development, manufacturing, and distribution of COVID-19 vaccines. Pfizer put almost $2 billion of its own money into the development of the vaccine and started a $1.95 billion contract with the U.S. government to provide 100 million doses, contingent on the vaccine being effective.

This vaccine is the first to be tested in the United States to generate late-stage data.

The companies said an early study of the results showed that individuals who received two injections of the vaccine three weeks apart experienced more than 90% fewer cases of symptomatic COVID-19 than those who received a placebo.

 

Phase three of the study is ongoing and additional data could affect results.

To stay within guidelines of the Food and Drug Administration, the companies plan to file for an emergency use authorization to distribute the vaccine until half of the patients in the study have been observed for any safety issues for at least two months following their second dose. Pfizer expects to know more results regarding the safety of the vaccine by the third week of November.

Why do conservatives keep posting material about what Scaramucci says? Can’t we dig-up useful, fact based news? Ditto for all the movie star quotes.

Scaramucci's follow up tweet proving he was being sarcastic:

Anthony Scaramucci
@Scaramucci · 1h

some people responding earnestly to this tweet should realize President Obama also deserves blame for not developing a COVID-19 test while in office.

He’s probably angling for a job as Assistant to the President for Drunken Bummery.
