WH Vaccine Czar: Trump Was “Never Actively Involved”

Mediaite reports:

Operation Warp Speed chief adviser Dr. Moncef Slaoui downplayed President Donald Trump’s involvement in the coronavirus vaccine breakthroughs on MSNBC, Monday claiming that the president “has never been very actively involved.”

Slaoui told Andrea Mitchell that “the vaccine is going to help us get back to some level of normalcy,” noting, “The vaccine will really become effective and we can go back to total normalcy when the overwhelming majority of people will have been immunized and the circulation of the virus will go down.”

Another Vaccine just announced. This time by Moderna, 95% effective. For those great “historians”, please remember that these great discoveries, which will end the China Plague, all took place on my watch!
