No one in the Trump White House was working with Pfizer to give them what was needed to meet production targets. Absolutely no one was willing to work to provide manufacturing equipment to expand their abilities. Instead of the projected 100 million doses, Pfizer was forced to cut expected deliveries in half.

When it came to getting those vaccines out to the public, there was nothing that even resembled a coherent plan.
States that had expected a federalized system based on months of Trump promising a “military operation” managed by Gen. Gustave Perna found that there was no such system.
Or even a plan for such a system.

States were left to plan vaccination events based on numbers of doses they were told would be delivered each week, only to have those doses fail to materialize.

States repeatedly received far fewer doses than they were promised “without explanation.”
The unpredictability of the numbers left states unable to plan for the transportation, storage, or administration of vaccine that was showing up late, in reduced amounts, and on a schedule that changed without warning.
And all of this was happening as the number of COVID-19 cases raced toward a staggering peak.

All of this came to an astounding head in January when Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar promised states that they would begin receiving the doses that the federal government had held in reserve for use in administering the second dose of Pfizer or Moderna vaccines.

Five days before Joe Biden took office, it turned out there was no federal stockpile.
Instead, the Trump White House had been artificially inflating the apparent level of delivery by “taking second doses for the two-dose regimen directly off the manufacturing line.”

That’s what Biden walked into: a system that wasn’t just consistently providing less vaccine than promised and unable to give states accurate numbers about what was coming, but a system that was in a hole millions of doses deep.

Coming into that situation, even Biden’s team was amazed at how little there was to see once they could peer behind the curtain.

In an astoundingly short time, they replaced a system that had been constantly underperforming, failing to give states reliable numbers, and robbing second doses to create the appearance of success with a program that is genuinely succeeding.

Biden invoked the Defense Production Act not just to produce gloves or vials, but to provide Pfizer with expanded manufacturing facilities, to enlist Merck in manufacturing rival Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine, and to provide the raw materials necessary to remove the roadblocks to production.
All of which are steps Trump simply refused to take.

The new Biden White House team then leaned hard on pharmaceutical companies to meet their goals,
and worked with them directly to ensure that targets stopped slipping.

Crucially, Biden secured not only enough doses of vaccine to vaccinate every American—he secured more.
In fact, on Wednesday, President Biden is set to announce that he has purchased another 100 million doses of Johnson & Johnson’s single-dose vaccine. This vaccine is being purchased explicitly in case there are any unforeseen incidents that delay production of Pfizer or Moderna’s vaccine.

Biden isn’t just making sure that Americans have all the vaccines necessary, he’s securing a backup plan.

Biden is doing what his team has done from the beginning: treating the pandemic like a nation-defining emergency that has already cost more than half a million lives.
Trump treated the whole thing like one of his real estate deals, using hype and outright theft to paper over a crumbling core.

As a result of the steps Biden has taken, The Washington Post reports that Alaska has now become the first state to open vaccination to everyone over 16. It won’t be the last.
Other states are set to move to vaccinating a large swath of the general public within the next two weeks. By April, vaccinations can be expected to be open to every adult in every state.

That’s happening in spite of what Trump did.
Not because of it.

The New York Times
Biden Got the Vaccine Rollout Humming, With Trump's Help
Sharon LaFraniere
Wed, March 10, 2021, 12:46 PM

WASHINGTON — When President Joe Biden pledged last week to amass enough vaccine by late May to inoculate every adult in the United States, the pronouncement was greeted as a triumphant acceleration of a vaccination campaign that seemed to be faltering only weeks earlier.

And it is true that production of two of the three federally authorized vaccines has sped up in part because of the demands and directives of the new president’s coronavirus team.

But the announcement was also a triumph of another kind: public relations. Because Biden had tamped down expectations early, the quicker timetable for vaccine production conjured an image of a White House running on all cylinders and leaving its predecessor’s effort in the dust.

A closer look at the ramp-up announced last week offers a more mixed picture, one in which the new administration expanded and bulked up a vaccine production effort whose key elements were in place when Biden took over for President Donald Trump. Both administrations deserve credit, although neither wants to grant much to the other.

The Biden administration has taken two major steps that helped hasten vaccine production in the near term. Even before Biden was inaugurated, his aides determined that by invoking the Korean War-era Defense Production Act, the federal government could help Pfizer obtain the heavy machinery it needed to expand its plant in Kalamazoo, Michigan. The Trump administration had repeatedly invoked that law, but its order for Pfizer only covered single-use supplies like plastic liners, not durable factory equipment.

Crucially, Biden’s top aides drove another vaccine manufacturer, Johnson & Johnson, to force a key subcontractor into round-the-clock operations so its vaccine could be bottled faster. That company had fallen behind on the production targets laid out in its federal contract. Only after Jeffrey D. Zients, the White House’s chief pandemic adviser, and Dr. David Kessler, who oversees the vaccine effort, demanded the company commit more resources did it publicly pledge to meet a crucial deadline in May.

At a White House vaccine “summit” Wednesday afternoon, Biden will announce that he intends to secure an additional 100 million doses of the Johnson & Johnson single-shot vaccine by the end of this year, with the goal of having enough on hand to vaccinate children and, if necessary, administer booster doses or reformulate the vaccine to combat emerging variants of the virus.

At the same time, though, Biden benefited hugely from the waves of vaccine production that the Trump administration had set in motion. As both Pfizer and Moderna found their manufacturing footing, they were able to double and triple the outputs from their factories.

Biden had been in office less than a month when Moderna announced that it could deliver 200 million doses by the end of May, a month earlier than scheduled, simply because it had become faster at production. Pfizer was able to shave off even more time, moving up the timetable to deliver its 200 million doses by a full two months, partly because of newfound efficiencies and partly because it was given credit for six doses per vial instead of five.

All this enabled Biden to announce that his administration would have enough doses in hand by the end of May to cover all 257 million adults, two months earlier than he had promised just a few weeks earlier. His aides noted that on Sunday, the nation hit a daily record of 2.9 million shots, 3 1/2 times as many as were given on Inauguration Day.

“Throughout our response, we’ve provided clear timelines based on the available, authorized vaccines,” said Kevin Munoz, a White House assistant press secretary. “We don’t plan to just meet these timelines, but rather to overperform them.”

To Trump administration aides, the new president’s crowing rings off-key. Biden is proclaiming victory off his predecessor’s achievements while wrongly grumbling about a mess he says he inherited, they say.

“They criticize what we did, but they are using our playbook every step of the way,” said Paul Mango, the Trump administration’s deputy chief of staff for health policy and a senior official in the crash vaccine development effort then known as Operation Warp Speed. He said Trump’s team oversaw the construction or expansion of nearly two dozen plants involved in vaccine production and invoked the Defense Production Act 18 times to ensure those factories had sufficient supplies.

The Biden team is “maintaining a very nice trajectory,” Mango said. “But don’t criticize us to make yourselves look better.”

Still, corporate, state and federal officials agree that Biden’s White House has been more active than his predecessor’s in trying to build up the nation’s vaccine stock.

The new administration’s relationship with Pfizer is markedly better. Trump and his aides had accused the company of slow-walking its vaccine development to hurt Trump’s reelection bid. The company announced its vaccine was robustly effective on Nov. 9, nearly a week after Election Day, then filed its application for emergency use authorization on Nov. 20.

Pfizer officials privately suggested that the Trump administration not only was wrongfully bad-mouthing the company but also had refused for months to invoke the Defense Production Act to order suppliers to prioritize Pfizer’s needs, as it did for the other vaccine developers under federal contract.

Biden’s aides started talking to Pfizer executives about what the company needed to make more doses even before Inauguration Day. When Biden traveled to Michigan on Feb. 19 to visit Pfizer’s plant, Dr. Albert Bourla, the company’s chief executive, effusively praised the new administration as “a great ally,” saying officials had helped the company secure critical materials and equipment.

The biggest piece of locking in enough doses to cover the nation’s adults before June was Johnson & Johnson. As recently as two weeks ago, Dr. Richard Nettles, Johnson & Johnson’s vice president for medical affairs in the United States, would say only that the company would supply 20 million doses by the end of March and 100 million doses by the end of June. That fell short of its contract for 37 million doses by the end of March and 87 million by the end of May.

Reuters reported Tuesday that Johnson & Johnson had informed European Union officials that production problems might delay shipments, and Canada’s prime minister, Justin Trudeau, said that he had heard similar warnings from the company.

In the United States, the company’s biggest worry was getting the vaccine bottled by two subcontractors. That “fill-and-finish” work is divided between a plant in Michigan run by Grand River Aseptic Manufacturing, or GRAM, and a plant run by Catalent in Bloomington, Indiana. The Biden team pushed Johnson & Johnson to order GRAM to move from normal business hours to 24/7 operations, one senior administration official said. Another federal official said Johnson & Johnson was largely on track but did “scale up a bit faster” under pressure.

Officials also brokered an unusual partnership between Johnson & Johnson and a longtime competitor, Merck & Co. The Trump administration repeatedly explored using Merck’s plants to bolster vaccine production but never reached an agreement.

Zients, the pandemic adviser, said Sunday that the new alliance had helped the Biden administration set its new May goal. In fact, though, Merck is likely to bottle only a few million doses of Johnson & Johnson’s vaccine by then, according to people familiar with its operation. The main benefit of the partnership will come later in the year, when Merck will have retooled a huge plant with the capacity to produce as many as 100 million doses of vaccine a month, they said.

Beyond the nuts and bolts of production, Biden’s White House has pursued a starkly different messaging campaign than Trump’s: underpromise, and then try to overdeliver. Trump routinely boasted of imminent achievements, including a vaccine rollout before Election Day, only to fall short. By contrast, health experts complained, at least initially, that Biden was overly cautious.

When the vaccine rollout began in December, Biden vowed that his administration would average 1 million shots a day during his first 100 days in office — enough to vaccinate 50 million people by the end of March.

After less than a week in office, he raised the goal by 50%, to 1.5 million shots per day. The nation passed Biden’s initial target about a month ahead of schedule and is now averaging 2.17 million doses per day.

Carefully calibrated goals “avoid losses,” said David Axelrod, the senior strategist for President Barack Obama’s campaigns in 2008 and 2012. “Certainly they must have learned that lesson from watching Trump.”

“Internally, you drive to the highest possible goal you can make. Externally, you set a floor that you are reasonably confident you can achieve,” he said.

Well, Biden managed to lie twice within the first ten seconds of his speech. "A year ago, we were hit with a virus that was met with silence." No. A year ago, less than a week after the first case was reported to the president, he assembled a team of experts and created a Coronavirus Taskforce that immediately began pursuing a multi-level response, that included travel bans, quarantines, testing expansion and the mobilization of resources. Rather than silence, there was controversy as the president attempted to address a problem and the Democrats accused him of Xenaphobia and went to Chinatown.

"Denials for days, weeks, months." No. The same exact message that came from the CDC and the WHO. That we had cases, that the risk to Americans was considered low, that they seemed to be under control, but that it was possible that we could see real hardship. In January and February. Meanwhile, we were acting and by march had cut red tape, mobilized resources, worked with the private sector to address PPE shortages, which under Trump turned into surpluses, expanded testing, accelerated work on vaccines and medicines, bolstered our medical workforce, set up new facilities, increased pandemic funding and on and on and on. Meanwhile, Democrats like Cuomo were putting Covid patients into nursing homes, fighting FDA authorization for drugs Trump asked to have fast-tracked and trying to scare people away from vaccines. And that last one includes Biden himself.

Somewhat related:

The White House has still yet to put a solo news conference by Biden on his calendar. That makes him unique among recent presidents. And not in a good way.
it's long past time for Biden to answer questions from the White House press corps in a sustained solo news conference. Why? Well, consider what has transpired in the first six weeks of the Biden administration.
Biden has signed more than 50 executive actions -- on everything from immigration to a return to the Paris climate accord. He also signed a $1.9 trillion Covid-19 stimulus bill, a massive bit of federal spending.
Insiders seem to hint that he is being "restrained" from holding a press conference where questions are taken.

The White House last week pledged Biden would hold a news conference before this month was out, but it has not yet set a date. It did schedule his first primetime address for Thursday, though, "to commemorate the one year anniversary of the COVID-19 shutdown."

Some presidents participated in joint press conferences with foreign leaders before holding their first unilateral one.

""""""""""""" Biden Assembles the Quad
3-12-2021
The leaders of Australia, India, Japan, and the United States meet virtually this morning for a summit, as the Biden administration seeks to make good on its commitment to multilateralism, as well as sending China a signal of unity among the regional powers.

The grouping, known as the Quadrilateral Security Dialogue or Quad, has existed on and off since 2004 when it came together on an ad hoc basis to deal with the aftermath of the Indian Ocean tsunami. Today’s meeting marks an evolution, as it’s the first time that the Quad will meet at the leader level.

In describing today’s summit, a senior White House official told Reuters that “the goal here is basically to introduce the Quad as a new feature of regular diplomacy in the Indo-Pacific.”""""""""""

"The president takes questions several times a week," Psaki said Friday, explaining that he has not yet held a press conference because "his focus and his energy and his attention" has been on COVID-19 vaccines and relief.

She said Monday that "the president has done about 40 Q&As since he took office."

Fox News to turn President Joe Biden into someone people hate. He noted that it's really difficult to hate someone who's making good on campaign promises and delivering legislation that people want.

After the network went through a month trying to manifest culture wars with whatever conspiracy they could find in a comment thread, they've now tried to concoct scandals that don't even make sense.

The first one was after Biden's address to the nation where he said that if everyone does their part, gets vaccinated, wears masks, and continues to be cautious, Americans could be celebrating Independence Day like we're all back to normal again.

Fox News twisted that simple statement to mean that Biden was going to cancel the Fourth of July.

Sane people knew what Biden was saying. Most people have been following public health advice because they don't want to get their friends and family sick and vice versa. But if we all do our part we can safely gather again this summer.

It wasn't a directive. It wasn't a mandate. It wasn't an executive order it was a suggestion like 'you should wear a helmet on your motorcycle.' Or 'don't eat raw chicken.' But, over at Fox News, the slogan may as well be, 'We RUN with scissors!"

Fox News is so desperate to play the victim that they'll take the tiniest suggestion and turn it into a scandal about Democrats trying to destroy your life.

Their latest scandal is slamming Biden because he's not thanking Donald Trump for the coronavirus vaccine. In fact, Trump had no role in creating the vaccine. It was a claim he made back in December while he was still in office.

"The vaccines – and by the way, don't let Joe Biden take credit for the vaccine. . . . Don't let him take credit for the vaccines, because the vaccines were me," said Trump in the Oval Office.

Forbes reported at the time:
"The evidence shows Donald Trump had no role in creating the vaccines to fight Covid-19.
There is nothing in the record that warrants him taking 'credit' for the vaccines. A review of events shows immigrants and immigrant-led companies created the vaccines."

In the case of Moderna's vaccine, French-born CEO Stéphane Bancel began work to design the vaccine in Jan. 2020.
Trump didn't even announce Operation Warp Speed until May 15.

In fact, at the time that Moderna began working on the vaccine, Trump wasn't even acknowledging that the virus was real. He was still downplaying it as nothing more than "the flu."

Further, Trump had an opportunity to buy as many vaccines as he wanted from pharmaceutical companies. He refused.

By contrast, when Biden came into office he began buying up vaccines and implementing the Defense Production Act to get more made.

It meant that people could be vaccinated quicker and the country could get back to normal faster. Trump was never fully able to understand that the economy was linked to the virus and the safety that people feel.

The Fox & Friends" glossed over the fact that over 500,000 Americans have died to attack that Biden not only refused to give Trump credit for inventing the vaccine, he "kicked him in the groin.

'Shameful': US virus deaths top 400K as Trump leaves office.

As President Donald Trump entered the final year of his term last January, the U.S. recorded its first confirmed case of COVID-19. Not to worry, Trump insisted, his administration had the virus “totally under control.”

Now, in his final hours in office, after a year of presidential denials of reality and responsibility, the pandemic’s U.S. death toll has eclipsed 400,000.
And the loss of lives is accelerating.

“This is just one step on an ominous path of fatalities,” said Dr. Irwin Redlener, director of the National Center for Disaster Preparedness at Columbia University and one of
many public health experts who contend the Trump administration’s handling of the crisis led to thousands of avoidable deaths.

“Everything about how it’s been managed has been infused with incompetence and dishonesty, and we’re paying a heavy price,” he said.

___ The US could have averted 40% of the deaths from Covid-19, had the country’s death rates corresponded with the rates in other high-income G7 countries, according to a Lancet commission tasked with assessing Donald Trump’s health policy record.

____A report on the Trump administration's policies suggested 40% of US COVID-19 deaths were avoidable.
Compared with six similarly wealthy countries, the US failed to protect citizens' health in the pandemic.
Trump publicly downplayed COVID-19 and often undermined health guidelines.

_____"Many of the cases and deaths were avoidable," they said, adding that "instead of galvanizing the US populace to fight the pandemic, President Trump publicly dismissed its threat (despite privately acknowledging it), discouraged action as infection spread, and eschewed international cooperation."

____Other public-health experts have highlighted the ways Trump's approach to the pandemic set a poor example for Americans and contributed to the US's huge case total.

"It's hard to imagine how they could've done it worse," Dr. Ashish Jha, the dean of Brown University's School of Public Health, previously told Insider.

____The Trump Death Clock started as a website, and was later presented in billboard form in Times Square, displaying a claim to the number of deaths attributable to U.S. President Donald Trump's inaction during the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States.

____confirmed coronavirus death toll topped 400,000.
January is on track to be the pandemic's deadliest month thus far, with the U.S. recording more than 4,400 deaths last Tuesday, the most ever recorded by any nation in a single 24-hour span.

Biden admin takes victory lap as US vaccinates
over 4 million Americans in a single day.

The Biden administration took a victory lap on Saturday after again breaking their own record for COVID-19 vaccinations.

"First true 4M+ day in the U.S., and it officially pushes 7-day average over 3M/day. Getting repetitive, but yet another record broken," Bloomberg News health care editor Drew Armstrong tweeted Saturday.

He noted over 162 million doses have now been administered in America.

White House chief of staff retweeted Armstrong with a note on how far America had come since the Trump administration.

"10 weeks ago, when [Biden] arrived, the daily average was 840,000.

NEW: 4.1 million vaccines reported today. From 3.5 million last Saturday.

Joe Biden announced on Wednesday
that the US had administered 200m vaccine doses
since he took office, fulfilling a pledge to reach that target
within his first 100 days in office.

As of this week, all American adults are eligible to receive a vaccine. “To put it simply, if you’ve been waiting for your turn, wait no longer,” Biden said.

The president initially promised to administer 100m doses over his first 100 days, but he doubled that goal after hitting 100m shots last month, weeks ahead of schedule.

More than 80% of Americans over the age of 65 will have received at least one coronavirus vaccine dose by tomorrow, Biden said from the White House.

The president said the country was “entering a new phase” in its vaccination efforts, now that all American adults are eligible.

“Now our objective is to reach everyone – everyone over the age of 16 in America,” Biden said. He also announced a new federal program to provide American workers with paid leave when they receive their coronavirus vaccinations.

“No working American should lose a single dollar from their paycheck because they chose to fulfill their patriotic duty of getting vaccinated,” the president said.
