Rubio—in Rare GOP Rebuke Of Trump—Complains Of Scant Supply Of Breakthrough Covid-19 Drug Remdesivir

Sen. Marco Rubio, R-Fla., a former rival of President Donald Trump, complained on social media Thursday about the insufficient availability of the breakthrough Covid-19 drug Remdesivir, blaming a “bad disconnect,” with the federal government and surfacing as one of the few Republican rebukes of the Trump administration’s handling of the coronavirus pandemic....

Gilead Sciences’ research on Remdesivir shows better outcomes for coronavirus patients than past treatments, and even though Alex Azar, United States Secretary of Health and Human Services, said Trump has bought the world’s entire supply, shortages in the U.S.

Rubio’s relationship with Trump has seesawed with Rubio generally backing the president, as he put aside past barbs when candidate Trump repeatedly referred to him as “Little Mario.

Part of the supply issue is that the drug must come from the federal government, which has created a bottleneck, accordingAccording to FasterCures, a program of the Milken Institute, there were at least 197 vaccines and 271 treatments in some phase of development as of Wednesday.

Not surprise. Dont waste the taxpayer money. People who don't like to wear mask does not have any right to use medical resources

Oh, Really well your Governor does not give a dam. Promotes tourism. No Remdeisivir it goes to states that are listening to social distancing and wearing mask. No in door dinning .

Marco is a cry baby, if he was that concerned he would do something, like getting the Governor of his state to mandate wearing masks.

Do we have to care what Rubio has to say. I’m sick and tired of these ungrateful politicians who don’t give a damn about the people who voted for them. When Marco got that job he was living paycheck to paycheck now he walks around like some responsible person. Wha a joke!

everything is good to hide your incompetence to manage this crisis

Or shut down everything simple as that

Oh! He's not worried they may become overcrowded due to Floridians refusing to take this all seriously?

I expect better of you. How do you know its a hotspot for growth vs. a hotspot for testing? Are there statistically significant samples being taken at regular intervals over similar populations where you can determine this? You're stating this as a fact. notJournalism

Is there anything else that you would like to put in there that 'might' happen?

From an immunologist in Bern Switzerland, and colleague of Anthony Fauci.

Does Marco Rubio have a Bible quote for that?
