Give Trump credit for the COVID-19 vaccine

-

Dear Editor,

Over 72 million American voted for President Donald Trump, which tells me that half of the country never bought the media hysteria on the novel coronaviru­s pandemic.

The health experts had models of over 2.2 million Americans dying from COVID-19. Just about 675,000 Americans died from the 1918 flu pandemic and the media never blamed President Woodrow Wilson for those deaths. The main reason is he was a Democrat.

Fast-forward to now, and just around 253,000 Americans have died from

COVID-19 and President Donald Trump is getting the blame because he’s not implementi­ng any foolish national mask mandate. The majority of Americans who died from COVID-19 are from Democrat-run states, so why isn’t the biased media blaming those governors? Why isn’t the biased mainstream media blaming China?

President Donald Trump, in the final presidenti­al debate, said they had a vaccine and the media and others said the president was telling a lie, and that it will not be ready until mid-2021. Now we have two possible vaccines that are 90 per cent effective against COVID-19. These companies never put forward the good news weeks ago because, I believe, they never wanted that to end Joe Biden’s campaign that was all about the horrors of COVID-19.

Joe Biden’s supporters should know that it was under President Donald Trump’s Administra­tion that the vaccine was created. We should give President Donald Trump and his Administra­tion the praise for creating the fastest vaccine ever.

With all that said, I, as a young adult male, do not need to take any COVID-19 vaccine. I believe the elders and people with weak immune systems should take it.
