Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden’s campaign announced that Biden will be vaccinated against the Chinese Communist virus on Monday (Dec. 21) local time. Five countries have already seen mutated strains of the Chinese Communist virus, and countries fear the outbreak could get out of control worldwide.
Biden’s nominee, Cedric Richmond, a senior White House adviser and director of the Office of Public Engagement, has also been diagnosed with the infection. A reporter who traveled with Biden on Dec. 15 also tested positive for the Chinese Communist virus. However, Biden’s team said in a statement that the journalist had no close contact with Biden.
Currently, Vice President Mike Pence, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell have all been vaccinated.
President Trump tweeted on Dec. 14 that he “has not scheduled” vaccinations “but looks forward to doing so in due course.
In October, Trump received an experimental antibody treatment. And a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) advisory committee said people who have received the treatment need to wait at least 90 days before receiving the vaccine to avoid any potential disruption.
White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany told reporters that Trump will hold off on the vaccination in part “to show the American people that our priority is for the most vulnerable. She said, “People in long-term care facilities and our front-line workers are the most important, and he wants to set an example in that regard.”
At least five countries have seen mutations of the Chinese Communist virus or it may become the main strain worldwide
The world is alarmed after the emergence of a more infectious and out-of-control variant of the Chinese Communist virus now in the United Kingdom. The virus, called VUI-202012/01, has emerged in at least five countries. Scientists believe that this super-contagious variant of the virus is likely to spread worldwide and become the dominant strain worldwide.
The emergence of the strain, called VUI-202012/01, has now been confirmed in Denmark, the Netherlands, Australia, Italy and Gibraltar. Senior British health officials say there is no evidence that the new variant of the virus is more lethal or responds differently to vaccines. But this variant of the virus has proven to spread 70 percent faster.
French Health Minister Olivier Veran said the new virus is likely to have spread in France.
More than 10 countries, including France, Germany, Italy, Ireland and Canada, have broken off flights with Britain in the hope of containing the mutant strain.
British health minister: the new variant of the virus strain “is out of control”
Currently, patients with VUI-202012/01 have been seen throughout the UK, except for Northern Ireland. Northern Ireland’s chief minister, Arlene Foster, said the virus is also likely to have spread locally.
Last Wednesday (Dec. 16), Prime Minister Johnson originally said it was “inhumane” to impose a city closure order during Christmas, so the entire U.K. will enjoy a five-day reunion day from Dec. 23 to 27, allowing three families to gather indoors. But 72 hours later, Johnson’s policy took a 180-degree turn and reintroduced the closure order.
