The Biden COVID speech from last night is difficult to watch. He lies, deflects & takes credit for work done under the Trump Admin. Here are my top 5 along with links that prove his claims either started before his term in office or are just flat out lies.
1. "A year ago we were hit with a virus that was met with silence that spread unchecked. Denials for days, weeks then months..."

2. “We’ve been working with vaccine manufactures …to manufacture and purchase hundreds of millions of doses… and now, with the assistance of my administration, Johnson and Johnson is working together with a competitor, Merck…”
Options for the vaccines now being purchased had already been negotiated under the Trump Admin & the Merck/J&J partnership had already been under discussion before Biden took office. redstate.com/sister-toldjah…
3. “And we’ve been creating more places to get the shots. We’ve made it possible for you to get a vaccine in any one of 10,000 pharmacies across the country.”

4. “We’ve been sending vaccines to hundreds of community health centers all across America located in underserved areas.”
Federally funded community health centers are in the spotlight as the Trump administration in its final days said they should be used by more states as valuable vaccination outlets.
In mid-January, Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar urged states to expand their vaccination efforts to additional vulnerable people and to distribute shots through pharmacies, mass vaccination sites and community health centers.
"Some of these community health centers are already being utilized by state plans, but every state should be using them," Azar said. community health center representatives say Azar's call for states to focus on them was welcome. msn.com/en-us/news/us/…
5. “We continue to work to make at-home testing available.” (These tests were part of Operation Warp Speed.)

So, Trump had no plan? Here are 4 clear examples of Biden taking credit for the plans Trump left behind... all while he had the gaul to call for "unity."
Maybe there'd be some unity if you didn't trash and take credit from the guy 74m people voted for.
