Potentially much worse. And the dysfunction and political impulses of this administration threaten to exacerbate this crisis even more. Right now, President Trump is downplaying warnings from scientists inside his administration and yesterday he claimed dr. Fauci was playing all sides of the reopening debate. Today, hes claiming that the testimony from dr. Rick bright, a top vaccine expert, is simply not legitimate. Our window of opportunity is closing. If we fail to improve our response now based on science, i fear the pandemic will get worse and be prolonged. There will be likely a resurgence of covid19 this fall, and it will be greatly compounded by the challenges of seasonal influenza. Without better planning, 2020 could be the darkest winter in modern history. Hes nothing more than a really disgruntled, unhappy person. I watched him, and he looked like an angry, disgruntled employee who, frankly, according to some people, didnt do a very good job. We should note, according to dr.
Research and development effort. Operation warp speed will integrate existing efforts that are coordinating vaccine therapeutic and Countermeasure Development including nihs active and rad x initiatives. This week hhs and dod already announced new contracts to manufacture hundreds of millions of needle and syringes here in america for distributing an eventual vaccine. Finally, the president s efforts will ensure not only that we get vaccines, therapeutics and doctor tick diagnostics, but we get large donations so theyre affordable for the American People. So, thank you, mr. President , and thank you to all of the american scientists and inventers at hhs, dod and elsewhere hard at work already. I want to express my personal appreciation to secretary esper and the department of defense because this partnership is what is going to make this truly an historic endeavor. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Well, thank you, mr. President , for your leadership of this bold and historic initiative
Companies. Where did you ultimately get the virus that you distributed, the sample . The sample came from the bei resources at nih, and some came from laboratories that received the initial seed from cdc. Thats helpful to know. In some conversations ive been a part of with some at nih, they indicated the real key here was to get the dna sequence which china did eventually put up i believe at the end of december, early january, and that in terms of going after the vaccine, it was that sequencing that mattered most to get started on Vaccine Development. There are other scientists who are very distinguished who believe the delay in getting the virus sample actually didnt set them back. Is that an accurate assessment or do you have a disagreement in that view . I know scientists disagree. So do we up here. Im kind of hearing that having the sequencing really mattered most and getting the virus, important, but did not set them back in proceeding to get the Vaccine Development under way. Sir
