Yes there are Trump’s Operation Warp Speed.
Yes there are Trump’s Operation Warp Speed.
Operation Warp speed is a marketing gimmick.
Hell of a marketing gimmick!
development so far include:
March 30: HHS announced $456 million in funds for Johnson & Johnson's (Janssen) candidate vaccine. Phase 1 clinical trials began in Belgium on July 24th and in the U.S on July 27th. Janssen's large-scale Phase 3 clinical trial began on September 22, 2020, making them the fourth OWS candidate to enter Phase 3 clinical trials in the United States. Up to 60,000 volunteers will be enrolled in the trial at up to nearly 215 clinical research sites in the United States and internationally.
April 16: HHS made 
up to $483 million in support available for Moderna's candidate vaccine, which began Phase 1 trials on March 16 and received a fast-track designation from FDA. This agreement was expanded on July 26 to include an additional $472 million to support late-stage clinical development, including the expanded Phase 3 study of the company's mRNA vaccine, which began on July 27th.
May 21: HHS announced up to $1.2 billion in support for AstraZeneca's candidate vaccine, developed in conjunction with the University of Oxford. The agreement is to make available at least 300 million doses of the vaccine for the United States, with the first doses delivered as early as October 2020, if the product successfully receives FDA EUA or licensure. AstraZeneca's large-scale Phase 3 clinical trial began on August 31, 2020.
July 7: HHS announced $450 million in funds to support the large-scale manufacturing of Regeneron's COVID-19 investigational anti-viral antibody treatment, REGN-COV2. This agreement is the first of a number of OWS awards to support potential therapeutics all the way through to manufacturing. As part of the manufacturing demonstration project, doses of the medicine will be packaged and ready to ship immediately if clinical trials are successful and FDA grants EUA or licensure.
July 7: HHS announced $1.6 billion in funds to support the large-scale manufacturing of Novavax's vaccine candidate. By funding Novavax's manufacturing effort, the federal government will own the 100 million doses expected to result from the demonstration project.
July 22: HHS announced up to $1.95 billion in funds to Pfizer for the large-scale manufacturing and nationwide distribution of 100 million doses of their vaccine candidate. The federal government will own the 100 million doses of vaccine initially produced as a result of this agreement, and Pfizer will deliver the doses in the United States if the product successfully receives FDA EUA or licensure, as outlined in FDA guidance, after completing demonstration of safety and efficacy in a large Phase 3 clinical trial, which began July 27th.
July 31: HHS announced approximately $2 billion in funds to support the advanced development, including clinical trials and large scale manufacturing, of Sanofi and GlaxoSmithKline's (GSK) investigational adjuvanted vaccine. By funding the manufacturing effort, the federal government will own the approximately 100 million doses expected to result from the demonstration project. The adjuvanted vaccine doses could be used in clinical trials or, if the FDA authorizes use, as outlined in agency guidance, the doses would be distributed as part of a COVID-19 vaccination campaign.August 5: HHS announced approximately $1 billion in funds to support the large-scale manufacturing and delivery of Johnson & Johnson's (Janssen) investigational vaccine candidate. Under the terms of the agreement, the U.S. Government will own the resulting 100 million doses of vaccine, and will have the option to acquire more. The company's investigational vaccine relies on Janssen's recombinant adenovirus technology, AdVac, a technology used to develop and manufacture Janssen's Ebola vaccine with BARDA support; that vaccine received European Commission approval and was used in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) and Rwanda during the 2018-2020 Ebola outbreak that began in the DRC.
August 11: HHS announced up to $1.5 billion in funds to support the large-scale manufacturing and delivery of Moderna's investigational vaccine candidate. Under the terms of the agreement, the U.S. Government will own the resulting 100 million doses of vaccine, and will have the option to acquire more. The vaccine, called mRNA-1273, has been co-developed by Moderna and scientists from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health. NIAID has continued to support the vaccine's development including nonclinical studies and clinical trials. Additionally, BARDA has supported phase 2/3 clinical trials, vaccine manufacturing scale up and other development activities for this vaccine. The Phase 3 clinical trial, which began July 27, is the first government-funded Phase 3 clinical trial for a COVID-19 vaccine in the United States.
August 23: As part of the agency's efforts to combat COVID-19, the FDA issued an emergency use authorization (EUA) for investigational convalescent plasma. Based on available scientific evidence, the FDA determined convalescent plasma may be effective in lessening the severity or shortening the length of COVID-19 illness in hospitalized patients, and that the known and potential benefits of the product outweigh the known and potential risks. The EUA authorizes the distribution of convalescent plasma in the U.S. as well as its administration by health care providers, as appropriate, to treat suspected or confirmed cases of COVID-19. Learn more about EUAs.
October 9: HHS announced an agreement with AstraZeneca for late-stage development and large-scale manufacturing of the company's COVID-19 investigational product AZD7442, a cocktail of two monoclonal antibodies, that may help treat or prevent COVID-19. The goal of AstraZeneca's partnership with the U.S. Government is to develop a monoclonal antibody cocktail that can help prevent infection. An effective monoclonal antibody that can prevent COVID-19, particularly one that is long-lasting and delivered by intramuscular injection, may be of particular use in certain groups. This includes people who have compromised immune function, those who are over 80 years old, and people undergoing medical treatments that preclude them from receiving a COVID-19 vaccine.
October 28: HHS announced a $375 million agreement with Eli Lilly and Company to purchase the first doses of the company's COVID-19 investigational antibody therapeutic bamlanivimab, also known as LY-CoV555. Bamlanivimab currently is being evaluated in Phase 3 clinical trials funded by Eli Lilly, in addition to clinical trials as part of the ACTIV public-private partnership. The FDA is reviewing bamlanivimab as a possible treatment for COVID-19 in outpatients. Monoclonal antibodies, which mimic the human immune system, bind to certain proteins of a virus, reducing the ability of the virus to infect human cells.
November 10: HHS announced plans to allocate initial doses of Eli Lilly and Company's investigational monoclonal antibody therapeutic, bamlanivimab, which received emergency use authorization from the FDA on November 9, for the treatment of non-hospitalized patients with mild or moderate confirmed cases of COVID-19. A data-driven system will ensure continued fair and equitable distribution of these new products. Weekly allocations to state and territorial health departments will be proportionally based on confirmed COVID-19 cases in each state and territory over the previous seven days, based on data hospitals and state health departments enter into the HHS Protect data collection platform. To find out how much bamlanivimab has been allocated to specific states, territories, and jurisdictions, visit the allocation dashboard. This dashboard will be updated each distribution week until the FDA issues a revised EUA indicating the U.S. government involvement in the allocation and distribution process is no longer needed.
Warped speed.
The only possible permanent solutions to Covid were geographic isolation of the original outbreak and the vaccine. Both of which were heavily championed by Trump, but travel bans were opposed by the Dems
Social distancing can have a delaying effect .....masks probably have no effect
Isolating the vulnerable was championed by Republican States like Florida and flubbed in NY...my rough numbers suggest over 80% of deaths have occurred in Democratic counties.
The reason the country with the world’s most sophisticated health care system has the most cases is because it is a highly mobile, interactive society used to almost complete freedom. The primary levers to interrupt that freedom rest with local governments.
If Trump issued a national mask policy it would almost certainly have been overturned by some judge..the things the central government can control they did very effectively. If Trump can be accused of anything it was occupying too much of the stage at the press conferences.
"If Trump issued a national mask policy it would almost certainly have been overturned by some judge..."
Perhaps not, it hangs on how he approached the problem, for instance, if he'd worked through and agreed approach with all the Governors and with a practice common to all then a judge wouldn't have come into play.
I'll leave it at that before I get into his dismissive attitude about best practice science.
One other thing, the estimated timings for when Covid struck in the USA is questionable. I have a nephew who holidayed in America over the December/ January period, he came back infected with Covid, admitted himself to a hospital and discharged himself 4 days later. No-one over here knew that he had Covid......neither did the Americans. I'm suggesting that by the time someone woke up to what was going on which I believe to be middle February, Covid had already spread itself far and wide across the country.
Quite possibly, although I haven’t seen much data to corroborate that view. But I think it’s fairly clear Covid came to the US in two major waves.....on the West Coast, especially through Seattle directly from China.....and in the North East via especially Italy. Certainly the West Coast wave was reduced by the Travel bans.
The East Coast was wide open because China never limited travel out of Wuhan, Italy never took steps in time and the Democratic establishment attacked the initial Travel bans rather than supporting further steps.
Wrong.
The virus was seeded in the USA when the world's most dangerous clown slapped short-sighted travel restrictions that were based on citizenship. Bozo was so phenomenally stupid as to put a ban on non-US citizens travelling to the USA while allowing hundreds of thousands of US citizens to return to the USA without testing, screening or PPCs. Did Bozo think Covid infected only Chinese people? Do you brainwashed and dull-witted Trumpanzees think it was only Chinese people bringing the virus to the US from China?
Hmmm?
Hundreds of thousands of Americans returned from infected countries like China all at the same time in the same airports in a state of panic. No temperature screening, no social distancing, no masks and no tracing. None of that was in place. Some Democrats opposed the ban but only because there were no preparations. Preparations that could have saved the USA from becoming the epicentre of the virus.
The short-sighted and premature travel restrictions more than anything are what seeded the virus in the USA and why they are the worst affected nation in the world by miles . . . not to mention the mask-wearing example set by their absolute clown of a bungling president.
There . . . schooled again!
Shplotttt!
Apparently, Trump did not even want to close the borders to Chinese and later Europeans.
Apparently Shark....more fake media.
‘Democrats opposed the ban only because there were no preparations’....the virus didn’t care....every person the Dems let in because they opposed the ban probably killed somebody.
Hell even when Trump established the European travel ban, they still opposed him. Now they lie through their teeth about it....just like Cuomo never sent Covid patients back to nursing homes. And he was for a long time THE Dem voice on the virus.
This from CNN:
It makes no sense. If Trump cared so much and did so much at the start when there were only a few deaths, then why doesn’t he care now when there are many?
People were dying back then and people are dying right now and if this was all ‘heavily championed’ by Trump then why isn’t it still being ‘heavily championed’ by Trump?
How can anyone justify his obsession with proving the election was a fraud over saving lives?
Make America great again he said, how about putting America first?
Roll on 20th January 2021!!
Whoosh!
The only sound a Trumpie makes when they don’t have an answer. And the only sound you’ll hear when he’s dragged kicking and screaming from the WH only much, MUCH louder hahaha
Can’t wait whooosh
Deaths from the Chinese Virus alone are around 14,000. Die in a car crash but you have covid its counted as a covid death. See Whatfinger.
. com
Solution:
Stop paying hospitals far more for covid. Stop the incentive to call all deaths covid
Do a proper count of covid deaths.
Prosecute all 4 demonrats Governors sending infected people back into old age homes.
Investigate why demonrat states get it all wrong.
Protect the vulnerable and build herd immunity. Practically speaking the virus cannot be stopped. You cannot isolate everybody.
The morons here opining on covid should take the trouble to acquaint themselves with the massive Danish Study and the Marine Study.
They should break away from fake news for a moment and read what the medical people are saying.
There is an avalanche of news coming out about how masks do not work and neither do lockdowns. France and Spain had the strictest lock downs and heaviest mask compliance and yet have heaviest of spikes.
Go to WORLDOMETER and see the Swedish death rates.
Poor old sharktwit tries to discredit Trump's operation Warspeed. Even corrupt fake news CNN had to give Trump credit. Trump gave billions to these companies!
Moz you sure ripped poor sharktwit. This poor loon is now like a very old flag shredded by the wind.
Shrarktwit isn't it time you made an abject apology for all your absurd posts. Hahahahahaha.
But after receiving huge help from Trump these two globalist companies decided to make their announcement of successful trials only days after the election. What a bunch of snakes!
Oaks a peace of advice. Before taking any vaccine make sure you know what it contains. A number of doctors are making alarming claims.
Beeno, somehow your hero - "The Big Brother Reality TV star" got elected.
Actually as I proved to you in Pennsylvania Trump probably did get elected twice. He was denied victory by the flood of Dem mail in ballots which broke all tradition and voted at a 20% higher rate than average. A million excess mail in votes in Pennsylvania meant 200000 more Dem votes....which was way more than the rigged difference of 80000 votes.
All of that in spite the fact that 45% of the voters still believed the uncorrected Dem lie that Russian collusion took place in 2016.
On a fair, level playing field basis Trump won this election by much more than they are claiming Biden won.
And nobody hates Fauci....we just recognize his political bias....and the fact that he was wrong about the risk of the virus, championed ineffective remdesivir as much as Trump championed hcq, and was wrong about masks after lying about them.
The infectious disease scientists have a horrible record of poor numbers, failed predictions and ineffective measures throughout the epidemic. Their reputations will be saved by some clever young chemists who came up with the vaccine.....but the virologists have failed their first test since 1919.
Countries using HCQ have a 70% lower death rate than countries not using it so Trump was correct. Very cheap as well.
Prof Alan Dershowitz says Trump will win his Pennsylvanian case in the Supre Court. The questions is how much of an impacts was there. Rudy claims 680,000 plus votes.
Now what happened in Pennsylvania happened in Michigan and Wisconsin. That's enough to give Trump the election.
There is a lot of fraud in Nevada as well.
Trump tweeted that fraud will be revealed in Georgia
Trump can win all these battle ground states.
Then we have the whole debacle of the Dominium voting machine fraud.
Sydney Powell is claiming Trump probable lost 7 million votes and Biden should have ten million votes less.
There have been numerous articles by staticians etc showing that what happened was impossible.
So why don't ignorant bigots like sharktwit, rooitwit, the very dense Denise and blob brain know about these things.
Well it's really because they don't want to know. They prefer propaganda to news. Yes of course there has been massive censorship by the MSM and Big Tech. But that does not excuse the dunces as it's all over the internet.
I seriously worry about the mental stability of these Loons. If Trump does win as he should what will become of them. BWHAHAHAHAHAHA.
Reading the posts of these nutters one is staggered by how much they don't know.
CNN says Biden is President Elect so it must be so. Hahahahahaha..
They probably know nothing about the new Grassley/Johnston Report raising more questions about China Joe.
Have they seen the statistical evidence showing why Biden votes are impossible.
One would have to set aside a couple of days to present the evidence that had already come to light. But these bigots are not worth that sort of effort.They are like the Marxist press who also don't want to know.
Looking forward to the court cases. Wonder if the likes of CNN will cover them. Cancel culture, censorship and physical intimidation is the lefts game. However like never before Americans are on to them.
As mentioned in another post 30% of democrats think Trump won. You would have to be a complete brain washed moron to think Trump lost on any fair basis.
Another win is that more Rinos have destroyed themselves politically. Hahahahahaha.
I see the World Health Organisation does not recommend taking Remdesivir. They said data from around the world shows it does nothing for Covid patients. Not as bad as HCQ which increases the death rate of Covid patients.
@Beeno,
Fox News declared Biden the president-elect before CNN. They also called some of the states for Biden before CNN.
Trump is now recommending that people switch from Fox News to the one American news network. https://www.oann.com/.
If you "fought" Fox News was great, OANN is even crazier.
They are super far-right-wing- so far that they have no grasp of reality. Some of the journalists may just be frauds accepting bribes to spread misinformation.
Trump is talking about creating Trump News Network when he runs for president again in 4 years. That will all be conspiracies - about arresting Democrats or anyone that is not part of Trump's cult.
