Trump’s Vaccine Rhetoric Sends Chills Through Public Health Circles
The Hill ^ | 03/09/24 | Nathaniel Weixel

Public health advocates are watching in growing alarm as former President Trump increasingly embraces the anti-vaccine movement.

“I will not give one penny to any school that has a vaccine mandate or a mask mandate,” Trump said in a recent campaign rally in Richmond, Va.

It’s a line Trump has repeated, and his campaign said he is only referring to school COVID-19 vaccine mandates — but that hasn’t eased fears that the GOP leader could accelerate already worrying trends of declining child vaccination.

Trump “is an important voice. He has a big platform. And he uses that platform, in this case, to do harm. Because he’s implying by saying that we shouldn’t mandate vaccines, vaccines are in some ways ineffective or unsafe,” said Paul Offit, a pediatrician and vaccine expert at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia.

In reading this article, I remembered that Congress changed the definition of a vaccine shortly before the outbreak. Granted the article uses a lot of “may” and “could”, but don’t you get a bit suspicious about the timing?

Congress made crucial change to vaccine definition weeks before COVID-19

I got shots at the VA center in White City Oregon, and they gave me a fact sheet. They described exactly what was shot into my arm.

Messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA), lipids (SM-102, polyethylene glycol [PEG} 2000 dimyristoyl glycerol [DMG], cholesterol, and 1,2-disteaoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine [DSPC], tromethamine, tromethamine hydrochloride, acetic acid, sodium acetate, and sucrose.

I don’t know about you, but it sounded like something my younger son would use to wipe down his duty pistol after cleaning it. Then I heard too much information about the downside and never had another.

Red herring. He’s speaking against mandates specifically.

You seem to have forgotten that all the Democrats said they’d never take a vaccine that was approved by Trump, back in 2020. There are two assumptions following that: that they actually did, and that they substituted something else that was approved by Biden—and it was indeed Biden’s approved vaccine that went into the public with the emergency authorizations.

What did he flip-flop on?

His speeches are about the mandates.

and it was indeed Biden’s approved vaccine that went into the public with the emergency authorizations.

On December 11, 2020, while Trump was still the president, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued the first emergency use authorization (EUA) for a COVID vaccine. Specifically, the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 Vaccine.

On December 18, 2020, while Trump was still president, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration issued the second emergency use authorization (EUA) for a COVID vaccine. Specifically, the Moderna COVID-19 Vaccine.

So actually it was “indeed” Trump’s “approved vaccine that went into (sic)the public (sic) with the emergency (sic) authorization.”

So Biden and the rest lied. Well, that settles that.

BTW, the FDA can issue EUAs independently from the POTUS. The procedure merely involves the HHS secretary declaring an emergency to get the ball rolling. And it’s interesting that this all happened in December of 2020, as well.

Regarding “worrying trends of declining child vaccination”:

The powers that be seem to be pushing the idea that a lot of children will die in 2025 from the next plandemic.

What’s declining is trust in the medical community, a self inflicted wound, when they decided to embrace mandating an untested and dangerous alleged vaccine.

Not so much. I think Trump made the mistake of trusting that Fauchi knew what he was doing. Trusting the doctor, so to speak.

Best description of his entire term. He mostly got taken advantage of by everyone in Washington every day for four years.

I don’t think he will ever understand the degree to which he was deceived, conned, and used by democrats, RINOs, the deep state, big pharma and every bad actor he came in contact with.

He did and I believe him. This is more rhetoric. He thinks bumpstock bans are great too.
What person would vote for a republican who let fauci run the country for the remainder of his presidency.
An honest person will admit they would mask, restrict travel or take a vax under hoodie. Or Obama.
It if Trump says jump, 85% are off the cliff. We will never be free again.

He really does need to up his game in the “wise as serpents” department.

I see you can’t let go of the liberal propaganda. Opus?

I like Trump and will definitely vote for him, but you nailed it with this one. The vaccine did not work. It caused more trouble than it helped. He needs to get with it regarding this fake vax.

Trump has been the one saying the COVID vaccine is one of the greatest achievements ever.

Nobody really will ever know, they won't allow all the data to be released and interpreted by a non biased group of scientists. Everything has been political, like the so called climate change "studies".

Your comment makes no sense.

You’re saying that actions DON’T speak louder than words?

It occurs to me that you thought I was referring to Trump. Trump is NOT the left. The left is those who are becoming hysterical about Trump appealing to or embracing the *anti-vax* anything.

Public health advocates are watching in growing alarm as former President Trump increasingly embraces the anti-vaccine movement.
