    I didn't forget. P45 & P47 were not subject to any employer-imposed vaccination mandates or behavior guidelines.

    Nope...those mandates came right after the Biden Administration took over.

    Ergo, even unaffected by any mandate, P45 / P47 chose to get flu and COVID vaccinations. Could he have known something worth knowing?

    P45 first took the vaxx in January 2021, before P46's inauguration, though it wasn't revealed until several weeks later.

    He took it again in December that year:
    "December 20, 2021

    NEW YORK (AP) — Former President Donald Trump revealed he received a booster shot of the COVID-19 vaccine, drawing boos from a crowd in Dallas."


    I haven't checked for the other P46 years. P47 came after P46, and isn't covered by any P46 mandates, yet took the vaxx yet again this October.

    He knows he'll get boo-ed by portions of his own base, but still takes it anyway.

    That's OK guys. I won't tell anyone you really do support President Trump. Wouldn't want to upset your base.

    I enjoy the blissful freedom of being too much of a nobody to have a 'base'.

    i support his personal vaccination choices, feel free to tell anyone you want, but i'd be more interested in his bases thoughts (but not in his base thoughts)

    Even a stopped clock is correct twice a day. One running backwards hits the correct time even more often. That doesn't mean anyone wants to use either to read the time.

    I won't remind other MAGA base that there is any daylight between you and Dear Leader.

    "Prasad did not provide details about the deaths or how the FDA came to that conclusion, but pointed to “an initial analysis” that examined 96 deaths and linked 10 to the Covid-19 vaccination. He also claimed that Covid-19 “was never highly lethal for children” and that the effects of it “are comparable” to respiratory viruses for which there aren’t annual vaccines."

    Quote from:
    FDA official plans to change vaccine approval process, claiming that Covid-19 shots caused child deaths | CNN Politics

    It is possible that Dr. Vinay Prasad — the FDA’s chief medical and scientific officer and the director of the Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research, has not read:
    https://data.unicef.org/topic/child-survival/covid-19/
    and further unaware that vaccination would have prevented 50 to 95% of those 17,400 deaths.

    It is also possible that Dr. Vinay Prasad simply does not care.

    Leading cause of childhood deaths is viral pneumonia. 2.5 millions per year. For which there is a (sorta) effective vaccine but global vaccine uptake is not high.

    It is highly irresponsible for a person playing at being a chief medical officer to understate the effects of respiratory viruses in children.

    "Nope...those mandates came right after the Biden Administration took over."

    It is possible that some people believe that no vaccine mandates happened during Trump P45 Presidency.

    I first mistyped that as 'belie' maybe shoul da left it.
