Doesn’t it cause heart issues in some patients (nothing to do with COVID)?

That's why a EKG should be done before taking it. Calling it outright unsafe was ridiculous.

She deserves to be Time person of the year (2020) more than JB/KH.

Time doesn’t deserve to have her grace their cover. They wouldn’t want to upset the Chinese now would they ?

One of the many false charges is that she “maliciously manipulated the outbreak”.
She went on a hunger strike & they force fed her & inserted a feeding tube.
According to an attorney of hers they keep her hands tied with belts 24/7. She’s obviously not doing too well.

They’re afraid she’ll tell more of the truth? China should be called out by the west for human rights violations.

Does anyone remember this? A long few weeks it's been!

IIRC Moderna vaccine was designed and made in less than a week in March/April.

IIRC Moderna vaccine was designed and made in less than a week in March/April.

China released the virus genetic sequence on Jan 11. Moderna had the vaccine on Jan 13. It took the FDA until March to approve the first clinical trial.

We are our worse enemies.

China released the virus genome on Jan 11. Moderna had the vaccine on Jan 13. It took the FDA until March to approve the first clinical trial.

We are our worse enemies.

Wow! I didn't know that!

And this is with Trump streamlining approvals. Imagine under a Dem.

This isn't a D/R issue. Any competent president would've rushed it faster.
