Donald Trump…Get Your Virus Vaccine….After ignoring the pandemic …
He asks people to get their shots….
Some of his supporters have balked at doing so….
Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday recommended Americans get vaccinated to help fight the Covid pandemic, engaging on the issue after months of relative silence.
“I would recommend it,” Trump said during an interview on Fox News with Maria Bartiromo. “And I would recommend it to a lot of people that don’t want to get it and a lot of those people voted for me, frankly. But again, we have our freedoms and we have to live by that and I agree with that also. But it is a great vaccine. It is a safe vaccine and it is something that works.”
Trump’s direct appeal to Americans comes as some of his own supporters have exhibited skepticism about taking the coronavirus vaccine. Experts say his endorsement of vaccinations could help alleviate some of that skepticism….
Not sure why the Trump endorsement of the vaccine took so long. Hopefully, this was a less deadly mistake than some of his other mistakes-like hosting super spreader events.
I am still on the waiting list.
You should be getting yours within a month or so.Production has really ramped up.
Indeed there are forecasts that by the end of April there will be an actual surplus of vaccine.
Then there’s Fox News/Wall Street Journal medical expert Dr.Marty Makary who says Covid will be “largely gone” by the end of April!
It will be interesting to see if Trumps statement encourages Republicans to get vaccinated.
Polls have shown up to half of Republicans (mostly men) are saying they wont.
