The first Biden-era vaccine (J&J) against Covid-19 is moving toward market, but new bumps could trip up the big launch

(CNN)The Biden administration is relishing the chance to put its new-and-improved distribution program on display with the release of the forthcoming Johnson & Johnson vaccine, but as the US Food and Drug Administration weighs authorization, expectations for a massive, imminent surge in available vaccine doses have been dashed. Federal health officials now expect to get fewer doses of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine in February and March, threatening their planned rollout.

Though the status of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine was brought up on the White House's weekly governors call Tuesday, several state officials and health providers tell CNN they're mostly in the dark about how the distribution will work.

Trump got Moderna and Pfizer approved by the FDA is 3 days for emergency use. Biden can't even get the much heralded one shot Johnson and Johnson vaccine approved mush less manufactured.

Maybe June or July - Trump would have had this done by late February.

Not only did President Trump get this done much faster, he ensured that their manufacturing was on point to deliver far more doses than anyone thought would be possible this quickly. That’s because President Trump came from the real world and understands business whereas career politicians understand nothing of real life or business.

Not to worry, Biden’s vaccine distribution committee is set to report back in the Fall of 2022.

The doddering slobbering imbecile had zero to do with anything but cash from our enemies, sexual assault, pedo tendencies and plagerism.

The only thing Biden will hurry along are illegal aliens coming to America and $crewing up the release of the J&J shot.

Yep, it's true to say that more people are illegally crossing the border with the virus than Americans receiving the JNJ vaccine.

CNN propaganda full of half truths and typical misleading statements. Not worth the read

WHY?

Source: John Rapport

“I’m hoping readers will spread this information far and wide.

OK, here we go. Smoking gun. Jackpot.

Right from the horse’s mouth. Right from the man we’re told is the number-one COVID expert in the nation. What Fauci says is golden truth.

Well, how about THIS?

July 16, 2020, podcast, “This Week In Virology”: Tony Fauci makes a point of saying the PCR COVID test is useless and misleading when the test is run at “35 cycles or higher.” A positive result, indicating infection, cannot be accepted or believed.

Here, in techno-speak, is an excerpt from Fauci’s key quote (starting at the 3m50s mark): “…If you get [perform the test at] a cycle threshold of 35 or more…the chances of it being replication-competent [aka accurate] are miniscule…you almost never can culture virus [detect a true positive result] from a 37 threshold cycle…even 36…”

Each “cycle” of the test is a quantum leap in amplification and magnification of the test specimen taken from the patient.

Too many cycles, and the test will turn up all sorts of irrelevant material that will be wrongly interpreted as relevant.

That’s called a false positive.

What Fauci failed to say on the video is: the FDA, which authorizes the test for public use, recommends the test should be run up to 40 cycles. Not 35.

Therefore, all labs in the US that follow the FDA guideline are knowingly or unknowingly participating in fraud. Fraud on a monstrous level, because…

Millions of Americans are being told they are infected with the virus on the basis of a false positive result, and…

The total number of COVID cases in America-—which is based on the test-—is a gross falsity.

The lockdowns and other restraining measures are based on these fraudulent case numbers.

Let me back up and run that by you again. Fauci says the test is useless when it’s run at 35 cycles or higher. The FDA says run the test up to 40 cycles, in order to determine whether the virus is there. This is the crime in a nutshell.

“Hello, America, you’ve been tricked, lied to, conned, and taken for a devastating ride. On the basis of fake science, the country was locked down.”

If anyone in the Congress has a few brain cells operating, pull Fauci into a televised hearing and, in ten minutes, make mincemeat out of the fake science that has driven this whole foul, stench-ridden assault on the global economy and its 8 billion citizens.

All right, here are two chunks of evidence for what I’ve written above. First, we have a CDC quote on the FDA website, in a document titled: “CDC 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel For Emergency Use Only.” See pdf page 38 (doc page 37). This document is marked, “Effective: 12/01/2020.” That means, even though the virus is being referred to by its older name, the document is still relevant as of Dec 2020. “For Emergency Use Only” refers to the fact that the FDA has certified the PCR test under a traditional category called “Emergency Use Authorization.”

FDA: “…a specimen is considered positive for 2019-nCoV [virus] if all 2019-nCoV marker (N1, N2) cycle threshold growth curves cross the threshold line within 40.00 cycles ([less than] 40.00 Ct).”

Naturally, MANY testing labs reading this guideline would conclude, “Well, to see if the virus is there in a patient, we should run the test all the way to 40 cycles. That’s the official advice.”

Then we have a New York Times article (August 29/updated September 17) headlined: “Your coronavirus test is positive. Maybe it shouldn’t be.” Here are money quotes:

“Most tests set the limit at 40 [cycles]. A few at 37.”

“Set the limit” would usually mean, “We’re going to look all the way to 40 cycles, to see if the virus is there.”

The Times: “This number of amplification cycles needed to find the virus, called the cycle threshold, is never included in the results sent to doctors and coronavirus patients...”

Boom. That’s the capper, the grand finale. Labs don’t or won’t reveal their collusion in this crime”.

Smoke and mirrors from Day one.

Covid will be gone in the US by the time this rolls out. Current US coverage is @13% already, and increasing by .3- .5% daily. And thats going to those who are vulnerable, mainly.

And that is besides the evident herd immunity that is kicking in. Which already has made Covid disappear from NYC and other areas hard hit last March-April.

It may still be useful abroad, if there is a cost advantage overall.

This is a result of Joe Biden's Operation BackBetterFaster initiative which began in late January and in less than two months there is a vaccine in the pipeline. Compare this to Trump's Operation Warp Speed, which was much slower, taking almost 8 months. Obviously Biden's community approach is making incredible strides which could not have been done by someone showing leadership.
