ABC News (Australia) published this video item, entitled “Donald Trump contradicts CDC director on vaccines, saying ‘he was confused’ | ABC News” – below is their description.
US President Donald Trump says the official in charge of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) was confused when he said a coronavirus vaccine could take until the middle of 2021 to be rolled out. CDC director Robert Redfield, a Trump appointee, testified on Wednesday (local time) in front of a US Senate committee that a COVID-19 vaccine could be broadly rolled out by the middle of next year or a little later. “No, I think he made a mistake when he said that,” Mr Trump said, telling reporters he called Mr Redfield after the testimony. “That’s incorrect information. I believe he was confused. I think he just misunderstood the question, probably.” Mr Redfield, head of the federal agency responsibly for managing the COVID-19 pandemic, had said that a general availability of a vaccine could come by “late second quarter, third quarter 2021.” #TrumpVaccine #USCOVIDVaccineRollout
