Yes, claiming to foster is right, I should have better specified it. Again, far from me to defend Trump. I'm just saying, he will be perceived as the savior, regardless of it being unjustified. He kept talking about Operation Warp Speed, and kept saying 12 to 18 months to get a vaccine is unacceptable... if he gets lucky enough that an effective vaccine does miraculously get produced and distributed in record time, even if it was not his doing, he will take credit for it and the gullible mass will believe it and will re-elect him.

I certainly hope he is not re-elected, even if a vaccine comes along fast. I hope for a vaccine to come along fast, but I hope this doesn't result in Trump being re-elected. I'm afraid it will, though.


Please take COVID-19 seriously; don't panic but don't deny it; practice social distancing (stay 6ft from people); wash your hands a lot, don't touch your face, don't gather with too many people, so that you help us contain it.
