    I am pro-vaccine, but ... I will not take a Russian made CV-19 vaccine ... it might explode.

    The latest hhs azar lie...

    Azar rejects claims Trump pressured FDA to approve convalescent plasma coronavirus treatment
    'Our normal timelines just can't hold. We've got to move fast,' Azar tells the 'Fox News Rundown'

    Of course, their decision came the day after trump pressured them with this tweet (with the FDA commissioner tagged) :

    he also run 50 miles a day

    this sure looks like it has Trump hand on it with his public stance on stopping covid testing so cases would go down for him to look better

    it's a sad sad day for the well respected CDC... another institution damaged because of Trump and his admin

    Probably a Trump ploy to say schools don't need to quarantine or test students and staff if a student or staff member tests positive.

    Trump's Coronavirus Response is to ignore the science and health officials. He is a leader who doesn't lead to save lives and stop the spread. How do you people like @Wattafan and @bigtexxx defend this slap in the face to those put in danger by careless, reckless, spreaders at a Presidential event allowing it?

    Donald Trump accepts GOP nomination for another term in front of packed crowd with no social distancing
    By Maeve Reston and Stephen Collinson, CNN
    Updated 10:36 PM EDT, Thu August 27, 2020

    The 1,500 plastic chairs were arranged some 6 inches apart on the lawn, falling well short of the administration's own guidelines for social distancing, and most attendees were milling about without wearing masks.
