21 hours ago · Fact-Check: Obama Waited Until 'Millions' Infected and 1000 Dead in U.S. Before Declaring H1N1 Emergency "Let's call it Trumpvirus," urged a New York Times opinion writer conspiratorially. …
CNN reported in 2009: [Obama declares H1N1 emergency - CNN.com ]
"Since the H1N1 flu pandemic began in April, millions of people in the United States have been infected, at least 20,000 have been hospitalized and more than 1,000 have died, said Dr. Thomas Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. [emphasis added] Furthermore, the CDC's Frieden fretted at the time that efforts to create a vaccine had stumbled:
"We are nowhere near where we thought we would be," Frieden said, acknowledging that manufacturing delays have contributed to less vaccine being available than expected. "As public health professionals, vaccination is our strongest tool. Not having enough is frustrating to all of us." Frieden said that while the way vaccine is manufactured is "tried and true," it's not well-suited for ramping up production during a pandemic because it takes at least six months. The vaccine is produced by growing weakened virus in eggs.""
Comment:
First diagnosed in 2009, Obama and his administration did little to nothing to stop the spread of this pandemic until more than 0ne million were infected and more than 1,000 died....
This is proof that the Progressive Marxist Socialist/DSA Democrats are lying to the public.
President Trump has asked for $2.5 Billion to combat COVID-19.
Now, Schumer and Pelosi want $8.5 Billion for COVID-19 defense that is 24 times more than for Ebola 6 and allocated to the H1N1 (Swine Flu) pandemic of 2009. What percentage of that $8.5 Billion does Chuckie want to go to foreign countries?
The one thing we all could depend upon with President Obama, there was never a 7-day reaction. We had to wait 90-to-120 days before any decision was made, and it was laid out with the news media messaging system.
In the case of Trump began more than a month ago, taking actions by the 7th day of something serious, and use Twitter to alert folks to his message...avoiding the news media entirely, by initially stopping flights from China.
Funny isn't it, how PMS/DSA Democrat Leftist seem to quickly forget their actions to similar circumstances and are quick to smear their opposites of actions they themselves have done in the near past.
