  1. I put my faith in the Medical and Science communities.
    Impeached Trump’s opinions mean NOTHING to me.

    1. @Ernesto V17 dude come on, The NY Times is so so so biased. Give me another source. Any independent ones?

    2. @Preston Ramseyer I can give you the same news from foreign country Journalists. Italy and France main journals have reported it too.

    1. Operations warp speed was designed to buy vaccines and help the development and research of the vaccine which he has accomplished.

    2. @Dan13lMece I The EU was signing pre-contracts with the research company in June — well before warp speed, Trump’s star trek initiative was announced. The EU also gave investment money to the company in June. German govt pushed more money into the development labs again in September.

    3. @Dan13lMece I

      No.
      Operation Warp Speed is credited with speeding along several other vaccine programs, including one from Moderna Inc.that uses similar technology to Pfizer’s and could produce trial data later this month. But not this vaccine.
      In fact, the trials for this Pfizer vaccine were commenced before ‘Operation Warp speed’ was even introduced by Mike Pence.
      Donald Trump was lying.

    4. ​@UCs3jODCamECJH1CEVt5OFsA True. A remarkable achievement to develop a vaccine for a new disease this quickly. Oh, how I wish I owned stock in Pfizer right about now. 🙂 I did years ago, but have since sold those shares. Ah, well. I’m just glad that we’re hopefully about to see much fewer people dying from this horrible disease in the not so distant future.

  2. That is how vaccines usually work… Lol No surprise there. It takes time for the body to create a sufficient amount of anti bodies for a lot of illnesses.

  3. How you gonna promise a vaccine by the Election and mass distribution in Dec if the vaccine isn’t even ready yet and you need sub-zero storage and transport which no one can even do right now? 🤔
    Could it be t’rump is perhaps maybe lying? 😅😂🤣

    1. @Billithekat Agolf Twittler gave another ” Pat himself on the back full of lies ” show in the Rose Garden a few hours ago where he once again took credit for the vaccine and said Pfizer was “mistaken” for saying Warp Speed was not involved .

    2. @Billithekat Yup, you are right. Though t’rump is taking credit for it, spinning the lie that their distribution deal was actually a development deal, which it is not.

    3. Ro, We already have a vaccine and ways to keep it chilled! Baby Ro you need to lay off the fake news!

  4. The vaccine was developed in Germany by a German company and was funded by the German government. Why do you call it the ‘Pfizer vaccine’? Biontech just partnered up with Pfizer for distribution purposes…

    1. They should just retire for the next couple of months and save themselves from getting Covid from the White House.

  5. Donald Trump and his driver were cruising along a country road one night when all of a sudden, they hit a pig. Trump told his driver to go up to the farmhouse and explain to the owners what had happened. An hour later, Trump sees his driver staggering back to the car with a bottle of wine in one hand, a cigar in the other.
    “What happened to you?” asked Trump
    “Well, the Farmer gave me the wine and his wife gave me the cigar.”
    “My God, what did you tell them?” asks Trump.
    The driver replies, “I’m Donald Trump’s driver, and I just hit the pig.”

  6. We are going under lock-down in NM for two weeks starting Monday. This is our 2nd this year. It’s the right thing to do for our State. It’s hard when you’ve done your part to keep down the spread and other’s haven’t. They talk about “their” rights but they don’t care about yours. 😢

  7. “Unclean, unclean, unclean.  Leprosy in the old times was one of the most horrid infections affecting a person and the conditions were many.

    Without going into detail, we can draw a parallel to the current Covid-19 that is affecting the whole world today.

    In the old days a person infected with leprosy was forced to go into the desert, wear a bell and call out “unclean, unclean, unclean openly announcing that they were contagious. Today we wear a mask to keep others from us. Yet there are those who refuse to announce they may be contagious by complying with the mandate to wear a mask. My question to you is ; what will it take to protect your loved ones, others and yourself?
