This pandemic
has proven that Trump doesn't care about our lives. With over
215,000 lives lost and counting, the United States has the
highest COVID-related death rate of any other economically
comparable country. It seemed like he couldn't stoop any
lower, but now Trump is trying to rush scientists to release
an untested vaccine before it's safe — specifically, before
the election. Sign the petition to tell the Food and Drug
Administration (FDA) not to approve a vaccine unless it's
actually safe.
For a vaccine to be viable, it
really must be both safe AND effective. For this to happen. a
vaccine must be put through one state of labratory testing and
then three phases of clinical testing in people. That makes
the realistic timeline for a vaccine that works and doesn't
hurt people more like spring of 2021. Trump's statements that
a vaccine will be ready "right around" election time, maybe
even before, immediately disqualify whatever vaccine he is
talking about as trustworthy. It's clear what's
happening here: Trump's approval rating is on the floor and
he's ready to kill even more people by pushing a vaccine
before it's ready.
Well, we're not standing for it.
We trust doctors and scientists, not reality television stars
turned dictators. Sign the petition and demand that the FDA, which
will have to approve any vaccine that is given to the public,
not listen to Trump's demands to abandon science and
safety.
Thank you,

P.S. This
vaccine must be released on scientists' timelines, not on
Trump's! Sign the petition. |
