Dr. Anthony Fauci says Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, President Donald Trump, and Vice President Mike Pence should all receive the coronavirus vaccine ASAP, according to The Daily Caller.
“I would recommend he do that, as well as Vice President Pence.”
“You still want to protect people who are very important to our country right now.”
“Even though the president himself was infected and he has likely antibodies that likely would be protective, we’re not sure how long that protection lasts.”
“So to be doubly sure, I would recommend that he get vaccinated as well as the vice president.”
Fauci has accepted an invitation from Biden to serve as his chief medical adviser.
“We can do both because the goal is the same.”
My goal as a physician, a scientist, a public health official, you know, we were very deeply involved and still are with the development of the vaccine, with the development of new drugs, with the policy about getting people out there.”
“We still have a lot of problems out there,” Fauci stated. “We still have a great challenge so I don’t see any conflict at all.”
