Biden Officers Fume After Trump Leaves Them ‘Nonexistent’ Vaccine Plan
Biden administration officials say they need to create their own COVID-19 vaccine distribution plan because the Trump administration never bothered to create one.
CNN reports that Biden officials were shocked to learn that former President Donald Trump and his team never bothered to come up with a plan for distributing the vaccine against the novel coronavirus.
“We don’t have to revise anything,” said one official. “We have to build everything from scratch.”
“Wow, just another confirmation of total incompetence,” said another source.
During his final weeks in office, Trump focused almost entirely on scrapping the 2020 presidential election results, and on the rare occasions where he talked about vaccine distribution, he said it was up to the state governments to do the job .
White House COVID coordinator Jeff Zients said Wednesday that the new administration will make coordinating vaccine distribution at the federal level a priority.
“For almost a year now, Americans have not been able to expect a strategy, let alone a comprehensive approach, from the federal government to respond to COVID,” Zients said. “And we’ve seen the tragic cost of failure.” If President Biden takes office today, that will change tomorrow. “
