It's Mid-November and we now have TWO VACCINES. Trump kept another promise.

[Captain Adverse]

That's right folks. Trump's efforts at "Operation Warp Speed" have proven effective,

A week or so ago Pfizer announced their vaccine successes:

Pfizer says early analysis shows its Covid-19 vaccine is more than 90% effective | CNN

Drugmaker Pfizer said Monday an early look at data from its coronavirus vaccine shows it is more than 90% effective -- a much better than expected efficacy if the trend continues.

www.cnn.com

Now Moderna announces their vaccine success:

Moderna's coronavirus vaccine is 94.5% effective, according to company data | CNN

The Moderna vaccine is 94.5% effective against coronavirus, according to early data released Monday by the company, making it the second vaccine in the United States to have a stunningly high success rate.

www.cnn.com

What did Trump say? "We are looking to get a vaccine by end of year, maybe before..."

Trump contradicts top health officials with vaccine timeline, malaria drug claims

The president also returned to promoting a malaria drug that can cause dangerous side effects.

www.politico.com

That was back in May 2020. Of course talking heads in the media, and "science experts" scoffed, and Trump's own medical "advisors" warned him against being so optimistic.

Basically the whole "establishment" said he was making another promise he could not keep.

Our "Usual Suspects" in this Forum joined that bandwagon, and even when Pfizer first announced, these same Members were quick to assert "This had NOTHING to do with Trump's 'warp speed.'"

I can't wait to see the posts to follow explaining how Trump was still "wrong" and how credit for this "speedy process" should be given elsewhere.

Guess I should vote for him then.

Right on cue. Ad hominem combined with a red herring.

No one said Trump "developed" the vaccines. Not even Trump.

The OP points out that he was taking every measure to speed up this process, and have a vaccine ready at "warp speed."

That despite his own "science experts," and MSM talking heads, he would expect it by the end of the year if not before.

Now we have TWO, and there are several other's also in the works.

 

[jnug]

Gee Pfizer and Moderna must have already received either an approval or an emergency authorization. I must have missed it.

Guess I better get in line at my CVS. Must be ready to start putting needles in arms. NOT!!!!!!

Chief adviser on Operation Warp Speed says 'the president has never been actively involved' in COVID-19 vaccine

President Donald Trump has never really been involved in the COVID-19 vaccine, chief adviser for Operation Warp Speed Dr. Moncef Slaoui told MSNBC on Monday. Upon news that another vaccine has promise in inoculating people from the coronavirus, Trump rushed to take credit, saying he hopes...

Aside from the press conference on Friday, “the president has never been very actively involved,” he said. “As I’ve said many times, we’ve had no interference one way or the other. We have informed him from time to time.”

More fallacious deflections, as per usual.

Airyaman, see post #5.

Meanwhile...

It is 11/20/20. We now have TWO vaccines. There is plenty of time for the government to support both production methods and distribution prior to 12/31/20.

Do try harder to see reason, and accept the fact that Trump was right and "experts" were wrong.

Tweety didn't spend a second in the lab. Instead, he held ego rallies.

He created the envirinment that enabled the invention of the vaccines.

You won't give him credit, but let one person die from adverse side effects, or let the vaccines be less affective than advertised and you'll damn well say it's his fault...lol

And thank christ Biden will be President when the vaccines are distributed. If anybody wants to know what a vaccine distribution would be like under Trump, just look back to the distribution of medical supplies during the beginning of the outbreak.

Wingnuts suddenly understand the potential of the federal government to get good outcomes from industry.

Bullshit. He downplayed the virus, put on a clown show, and did a lot of damage. I don't deal in alternate reality.

When the Feds step back and clear a path for the private sector to do it's thing. But, when they want to step in, create all kind of stupid, useless regulations and micromanage the private sector, is when things go to shit.

If wingnuts have been won over to more federally-funded research, great!

I can't to see you crying about it next winter.

The vaccine was Federally funded?

 

[ludin]

It is bullshit. Have a great weekend.

So i guess you won't be getting the vaccine then.
after all trump was responsible for getting it here so quickly.

First, Pfizer's was developed by a German company.

Second, neither of these vaccines are actually complete right now.

 

[Juggernaut74]

We have a vaccine?! Where and when can I go to receive it?

 

[Greenbeard]

The vaccine was Federally funded?

If not, I guess Trump screwed up yet again.

[less right]

How is Operation Warp Speed being funded?
Congress has directed almost $10 billion to this effort through supplemental funding, including the CARES Act. Congress has also appropriated other flexible funding. The almost $10 billion specifically directed includes more than $6.5 billion designated for countermeasure development through BARDA and $3 billion for NIH research.
