Amazing how all the Trump haters are the first to line up for the vaccine he made possible.

He was threatened, ridiculed, smeared and plotted against for more than 4 years . And now you line up and celebrate that you have your shot.
Fact is if he were not in office the vaccine would still be in the development and approval stage.

@akindheart You do realize, of course, that the vaccine was developed in publicly subsidized universities, right? The ones Trump cut funding for?

Great job he did in "making the vaccine possible."

@BlueMetalChick i know it happened under his watch and without him, we wouldn't have it.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@akindheart Yes we would. All he did was revoke money from the people who actually did it.

@BlueMetalChick so you are telling me that the vaccines were NOT developed by Pfizer, Moderna or J & J but on college campuses. YET those 3 companies took the profits right
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@akindheart Yes. That's how most privately distributed drugs are developed. Our tax money is used to subsidize medical universities that create the drug, then a private company buys the rights to it and sells it back to you, after you already paid for it, at a thousand percent markup.

@akindheart Trump loved the sound of his own voice more than anything else. He also loved to take credit regardless of whether credit was due.
akindheart · 61-69, F
@justanothername i disagree. and for operation warpspeed it was all his administration.
akindheart · 61-69, F
@BlueMetalChick ok then. nothing unusual then.
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@akindheart Heh. Good point. It's not like we aren't used to our tax money being misrepresented.

@BlueMetalChick your proving my point ,
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@Driver2 Your point is that Trump helped make the vaccine possible. Yet Trump revoked funding to the labs that created the vaccine. So no, I'm refuting your point.

@BlueMetalChick another Amen...to that one. Hugs my friend...you are one smart chick. you teach me stuff every single post.

@akindheart Speaking of the vaccine, have you gotten one yet? I just got my first dose last week.
akindheart · 61-69, F
@BlueMetalChick i did. i got the J & J one on March 26th. I am pretty sure i had a reaction. i have been sick since Day 14
BlueMetalChick · 26-30, F
@akindheart My only reaction was that the arm where I got the injection became swollen and tight. I think that's less due to the vaccine itself and more to do with the delivery method. Putting a needle into muscle tissue never does very much good, regardless of what you're being injected with.

@BlueMetalChick yeah my arm hurt like hell. i just kept massaging it and moving it around. i started getting headaches about 10 days ago. then started feeling like i had an infection. almost bedridden.
