COVID-19 VACCINES WILL BE READY WITHIN 24 HOURS OF FDA APPROVAL, SAYS AZAR
Fox News received exclusively Atlas’ resignation letter, dated December 1, Monday. In it, Atlas endorses the Trump administration’s paintings of the coronavirus pandemic, while wishing “all the best” to the new Biden administration.
“I am writing to you to resign my position as president of the United States,” Atlas said, thanking him “for the honor and privilege of serving on behalf of the American people. “
“I’ve worked hard with a specific goal: to save lives and help Americans through this pandemic,” Atlas wrote, adding that “it has been based on the latest clinical knowledge and evidence, without any attention or political influence. “
“Over time, like all scientists and fitness policy experts, I’ve learned new data and synthesized the latest knowledge from around the world, all with the goal of providing you with the most productive data for the general public good,” Atlas wrote. But perhaps more than anything, my recommendation has been aimed at minimizing all the damage to the pandemic and structural policies themselves, especially for elegance and the poor.
Atlas, who had been criticized for his mandate for asking for a reopening and saying that the locks were “extremely harmful” to Americans, said that “while some might not agree with those recommendations, it is the lax exchange of concepts that leads to clinical truths. , which are the very basis of a civilized society”.
“In fact, I can’t think of a time when safeguarding science and clinical debate is more urgent,” Atlas said.
Atlas continued to congratulate his paintings in the White House and his paintings with “several altruistic colleagues in express policy design for the coverage of other vulnerable people while safely reopening schools and society. “
Atlas highlighted its efforts to develop and prioritize “more non-public protective appliances and tens of millions of additional evidence for nursing homes and assisted living facilities,” as well as to put in place “more surveillance updates. Common clinical rules to expand testing “and institute outreach for independent seniors in communities.
“We have also effectively developed rational rules for opening schools safely, strategic use of the newly developed testing program, and a national inventory of long-term crisis drugs,” Atlas wrote.
Turning to the blockades he warned against his mandate, Atlas said they “identified and illuminated from the outset the damage of prolonged closed closures, adding great physical losses and mental distress, destroying families and hurting our children. “
And, increasingly, the low threat to young people of serious injury from infection, the less common spread of young people, the presence of immune coverage beyond that demonstrated through antibody testing and the serious damage caused by school closures and society are all recognized. Atlas added.
ATLAS BACKED UP AGAINST CRITICISM, SAYS HIS ADVICE BASED ON ‘CURRENT SCIENCE’
Atlas also praised Operation Warp Speed and the team for “meeting the promise of new drugs and vaccines. “
“I congratulate you on your vision and I also congratulate many others who have made the paintings of the task; we know who they are, even if their names aren’t familiar to the public,” Atlas wrote.
Atlas went on to wish Biden’s new address all the best.
“I sincerely wish the new team as long as they consult the country through these difficult and polarized times,” Atlas wrote. “With emerging medicines and vaccines, I remain very confident that the United States will prosper and triumph over the adversity of the pandemic and all that it has caused. “
Atlas, during his tenure, had an argument with members of the White House Coronavirus Working Group.
Over the summer, the director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Robert Redfield criticized Atlas, reportedly, because “everything he says is wrong. “
Atlas defended his record and experience, and argued that his entire recommendation to the president was based on “current science. “
“I asked to be an advisor on the president of the United States president’s coronavirus pandemic and asked for it because I have a 25-year career at the top, in elite medical centers, as a doctor, and in patient care. “Atlas told Fox News this summer. I also have a 15-year career in public policy, based on health care policy and integrating my medical wisdom into politics.
Atlas added that before his arrival at the White House this summer, “this experience is not present. “
“I’m here because I know how to translate complex medical science into plain language for the President of the United States and everyone else in the White House, and how to derive proper public policy from this information,” Atlas said. at the time, he added that there is a “false belief” that “he must be a public official of aptitude for the facts about the pandemic. “
“The president’s advice is perfectly consistent with the right top strategy to deal with this pandemic,” he said. “First, aim for diligent coverage of vulnerable and high-risk populations, and second, open schools and society. “
Meanwhile, as with a coronavirus vaccine, the Trump administration said deliveries of the vaccine would begin this week and that they would first have to be sent to frontline workers, medical staff and the elderly.
The president, on Thanksgiving, argued that his opponent, President-elect Joe Biden, would not receive credits for the vaccines, which he called a “medical miracle” before repeating allegations of voting irregularities in the 2020 election.
“Joe Biden failed with swine flu, H1N1, completely failed with swine flu,” Trump said. “Don’t let the merits of vaccines be credited because vaccines were me and I pushed other people more than ever before and we approved it and no one has noticed anything like it. “
Trump’s comments came before a December 10 assembly in which Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulators will make Pfizer’s request for an emergency use authorization for his vaccine evolve with BioNTech.
The data verification knowledge of the Pfizer and BioNTech vaccine, published earlier this month, showed that it is 90% effective.
In addition, Moderna stated that its vaccine was 94. 5% effective in preventing COVID-19. AstraZeneca also reported initial effects showing that the efficacy of its vaccine ranged from 62% to 90%, depending on the dose administered to participants.
According to Secretary of Health and Human Services Alex Azar, vaccines will be “sent” within 24 hours of FDA approval, and then “the nursing homes, hospitals, and pharmacies will be issued. “
“It may be that in the days after FDA approval, let’s start seeing vaccines in people’s arms, which is frankly surprising,” Azar said Monday.
The United States has reported more than 13. 5 million cases of COVID-19 since the onset of the pandemic and more than 267,000 deaths.
