Political blindness this extreme must be hard to imagine until you come up against it.

The idea that Donald Trump is better trusted to make a nonpolitical judgment than a science based agency on a matter that directly affects him politically is a definition of nonsense.

that's not the issue -do you ever bother to look , or are do you just trigger on Trump?

The Issue is the FDA just said it would DELAY an approval process - not for medical reasons -
but to "insure public confidence" . They talked of tracking subjects for 2 more months instead :palm:

Harris and Biden have been talking down the "Trump's vaccine" -deliberately not saying the FDA approval process is 100% done by vaccine experts inside the FDA.. That talking down has eroded public confidence. it's like 60-40

So Trump is saying forget that "politicization" in favor of getting it out ASAP when the FDA approval process
allows for efficacy etc.

Even a standard vaccine would usually take 10 years to test. We are talking about doing it in 6 months, and you are calling that "delaying"?

It's not a "nonpolitical judgment".

Who told you that FDA (or any government bureaucracy) is "nonpolitical"?

I didn't know that the president owned an isolated hill with steep sides and a flat top (similar to but narrower than a mesa).

I will only ever take a vaccine that has been fully tested, and approved by medical scientists.

All vaccines approved for use in the USA are required by law to be "fully tested, and approved by medical scientists", per Section 351 of the Public Health Service Act and specific sections of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act.

Now, will you refuse to be vaccinated when the FDA approves and licenses the first COVID-19 vaccination?
