Not content with hawking hydroxychloroquine and Lysol as cures for the corona virus, the administration has apparently decided to branch out into snake oil vaccines.
Alex Azar is the Secretary of Health & Human Services. He was formerly the president of Eli Lilly, so he presumably knows a thing or two about drugs and vaccines. Today he was interviewed on Face the Nation by Margaret Brennan and had this to say about developing a vaccine against covid-19:
“We’re going to scale up commercial manufacturing and produce hundreds of millions of doses at risk. They may not pan out, they may not prove to be safe and effective but we’ll have it so we can begin administration right away.”
In other words, “we’ll have something.” Whether it works or not, or may kill you, is another his concern. Hell, it could be just injectable sugar water, or maybe Lysol, or tincture of hydroxychloroquine, or perhaps Jim Bakker’s Miracle Silver Solution. It doesn’t really matter, as long as they’ve got another scam to foist on the American people.
