Faced with a steady stream of polls showing shrinking public confidence in the coronavirus vaccine race, FDA Commissioner Stephen Hahn has sought to reassure Americans that any shot his agency greenlights will be safe and effective.
"I will fight for science," Hahn told a Senate committee on Wednesday morning. "I will fight for the integrity of the agency, and I will put the interests of the American people before anything else." He told senators that "FDA will not authorize or approve a vaccine we won’t be confident in giving to our families."
Hahn said last week that his agency would be issuing the tougher emergency-use guidance for coronavirus vaccines, although that updated advice has not been made public."I have tremendous trust in these massive companies that are so brilliantly organized in terms of what they've been doing with the tests," he said.
WTF? INSTEAD OF USING AN UNTESTED VACCINE TO GET VOTES...WHY NOT ENSURE IT IS SAFE? MOST AMERICANS DON'T TRUST THE SAFETY OF YOUR VACCINES BEING RUSHED BEFORE ELECTION!
SethAbramson This should scare everyone!
Well guess what, you’re about to lose The People’s House. So we will just check in with Biden.
SethAbramson What a dystopian nightmare. TrumpLied200KAmericansdied TrumpCoupPlot
You're going to ask Scott WTF does he know...where is his experience? On yeah, he doesn't have any!!!
SethAbramson Since when has the 'White House' EVER interfered with the FDA scientists and physicians vetting and approval of drugs? The answer would be NEVER.
Wow 😳 this is really Enough of this DICTATOR!All Americans please vote him out come November!Enough of this lunatic!I honestly hate myself so much right now 4 giving Trump my vote in 2016 I am voting for Biden, our country is losing it’s democracy all coz Trump is fighting JAIL!
“When you have great companies coming up with these vaccines, why would they [FDA] have to be adding great length to the process? We want to have people not get sick. 'Donald Trump. The tainted polio vaccine that sickened & fatally paralyzed children in 55 was a rushed vaccine.
SethAbramson FDA needs to just publish the guidelines. Let Trump blather all he wants. The adults and medical professionals should just carry on as if he isn’t even there.
What is the fact check on this?
Rrriiiggghhhttt
SethAbramson This SOB...& the death toll continues to skyrocket while tRump does nothing to protect the American ppl. He doesn’t care if we all die. TrumpVirus
SethAbramson
The Trump campaign is reportedly 'discussing contingency plans to bypass election results' via Yahoo Big talk for a guy whos gone in a month and a HALF
SethAbramson So does he then also plan to do forced vaccinations? Because people are not going to get it if they think he monkeyed with the approval. We don't trust him.. we want to trust the scientists.
... 45* is ready to do anything to win his election by making sure that 'He' will be 'The Chosen One' to 'save' the world...by getting, at all costs, from anywhere , anything that looks like a vaccin, 'made in USA' ...
He's talking through his a$$ again as per the norm.
SethAbramson He’s wrong. The WH has zero authority.
SethAbramson He requires ultimate power. In business it is referred to as micromanagement. Here it is referred to as totalitarianism.
Murderer.
SethAbramson He’ll just put Kushner in charge of deciding what drugs to approve. 🤷🏻♀️
SethAbramson I’m waiting for approval from either Germany or Japan.
It won't help him. Anti-vaxers comprise a chunk of his base, and too many others, like me, don't trust a rushed, politicized vaccine.
Just when you think you've heard it all. Is this the USA Somebody tell me this can't happen please. Dictator djour.
Since when does the White House authored CDC guidance?
Prefers quick and dirty rules!
As scary as this is, there is a simple solution: The companies making the vaccines should agree to only release their vaccines if they meet the stricter FDA guidelines, bypassing any Trump influence. Even with Trump’s authoritarian agenda, he cannot control private companies
The White House won’t approve ?
Trump says he knows more than the career health experts at the FDA and he will overrule them if they don’t rush the through. Is this safe? Trump says he is smarter then the experts but remember it was Trump that suggested injecting disinfectant. No one can trust Trump.
Put your name in it then. Not WH denying the guidelines, Donald John Trump.
Anybody who would take that vaccine good luck to you
HE IS NOT OUR KING! I am so sick of this 💩! Is there not something that can be done? DOES ANYONE HEAR US?
WE DO NOT CARE WHAT YOU SAY. WE will handle covid ourselves. Just like we have done so far. GET packing. WE want you gone.
Sure, what could go wrong?
I request that Trump add to his 2nd term platform TERM LIMITS for Senators & Congressman. No more than 3 consecutive 4 yr terms (12yrs in a row) for Senators & 2 consecutive 4 yr terms(or 8yrs in a row) for congressman, or age of 75, which ever is first. 🇺🇸
SusanHarcourt1 Yup, that vaccine will be SO questionable but maybe the cult (many of them anti-vaxers) will happily imbibe
How /when does the 25th amendment come into play? Past time for serious action to remove the lunatic in chief. PANIC NOW. please. ❤️🇨🇦
Why should the FDA develop tougher guidelines than they have been using at a time of crisis? This sounds suspicious. What's with the FDA
Good news if the Trump base are the test subjects
We can not even say take the first dose cause it will be a lie!
“We cannot let the cure be worse than the problem itself”
How is that ALLOWED?
He'll do anything to get re-elected. ANYTHING, no matter how many lives it takes. Evil man. RepublicansForBiden
Oh sure. Because after his “Inject disinfectant and take hydroxy” advice, everyone will trust Trump’s claim that a vaccine is safe. If you’re a Trumper, just drink his Kool-Aid, and the world will be a better place...
Let’s use the Republicans & Trumps supporters as the guinea pigs starting w Donald his family. It will be must see tv to see the side effects in real-time
