This is the moment Trump wanted to politicize before the election. He still attempts to claim credit for it. But it has none of the political power. (Pfizer also did not take Operation Warp speed funds to develop the vaccine, just to produce it once it was developed.)

(1,300 posts)You ignored this pandemic, you redirected PPE to red states or stored them but you want the credit for the vaccine. You are a disgrace and a LOSER

(4,644 posts)Conflating Operation Warp Speed, and credit to himself, with development of the Pfizer vaccine (Pfizer received no vaccine development funds from the US AFAIK; Warp Speed provided funds to Pfizer only for mass production and distribution of the vaccine after it was developed). Or, so I understand it...
Anyhow, there he is again with that dumb-ass stern, serious look on his turgid puss.

(23,299 posts)and the herd will self cull? Now he's trying to brand the virus. You're no Salk don.
For a guy who sabotaged America to begin with and then stymied everything every Governor did to protect their people, he's sure quick on the trigger to give himself accolades.

(16,889 posts)it was developed by the German company BioNTech and they partnered with Pfizer to do vaccine trials in US as they conducted the vaccine trials in Germany and for Pfizer to help produce and market the vaccine. Operation Warp Speed, Donald Trump and the US Government had nothing to do with its discovery and invention. That's a German product.
Pfizer received only later after it was announced, funding to help speed up production.
And not to be forgotten: Trump's failed COVID response failed to order enough vaccine when asked if the US wanted to double their order. So the US doesn't have enough and those produced vaccines were bought by other countries for their use.
