Fauci has to tamp down on vaccine expectations which causes the President to ask him to talk about therapeutics

(13,620 posts)That was about the only successful thing he's ever done. The writers on his show would have the plan set up for him and he'd decide to fire someone else for whatever reason. Then they would have to go back and figure out how to edit what they had already shot to make it work. He does about exactly the same thing all the time.

Azar was a pharmaceutical lobbyist and a pharma exec. Slimy as they come

(14,961 posts)put one out too soon, you wouldn't want it anyway, because it would be dangerous without the proper procedures in place.

(12,712 posts)So, did they beat Azar in a backroom with a sock filled with ball bearings before he dispensed the propaganda?
I guess he doesn't want a contract. He looks okay though, and it would be a shame if something bad were to, ah, "just happen" to him.
I think we can peel his name of the credible information source list.

Need I add, even my rump voting brother is not buying this bs. Carry on Mr. Pence, I read you had a hand shake with a high school military cadet last Friday. Has his mother tested positive for Coronovirus? Did you blow wind while sucking up to your master? snark

(16,254 posts)Trump expects that when he says jump, those loyal to him...truly loyal...will perform at top speed. Trump also expects that when there are results, he should be the first to benefit. Privilege, and all that shit.
So, his pharmaceuticals work hard AND fast to get a vaccine that will protect AND CURE, according to Trump's thinking, then demands the first release of vaccine...tested, or not.
Let him have it. He will be the first trial and the rest of us can get the vaccine once it has been fully approved. Trump is thrilled and how thrilled will we be with the results? Just sayin'.

(82,849 posts)Let's hold Trump to his word for a change. He and his lackey stood before the cameras and with a live mic told the American people that they had a vaccine for Covid-19. Where is it, then? Why isn't it being dispensed right now? People are dying! You have a vaccine, you said so.
Keep at it until he has to back down, tail tucked between his legs. Trump counts on people not believing his bullshit. Let's dump this load right over his head and keep shoveling it on until he has to concede that he was lying, telling people what they wanted to hear so he could feel like a big man.

(2,199 posts)We have laws (FDA) governing how clinical trials are done to prove efficacy and identify risks to patients. It takes a lot of time to run the trials and ensure data is accurate. Fauci knows.
They would give a substance that possibly works in a test tube to human beings without following the law to save Trump's ass.
