Scott Gottlieb, a behind-the-scenes Trump adviser, just said that COVID-19 vaccines may be used to "ring-fence infection in cities while we continue to study them to see if they are safe and effective for mass inoculation."
Is this guy really serious?ICYMI: @GileadSciences $GILD #Remdesivir will likely be helpful for patients if administered early, @ScottGottliebMD told @margbrennan on @facethenation Sunday https://t.co/8uhraKMxIx pic.twitter.com/8Hog0VyGU0— Face The Nation (@FaceTheNation) May 4, 2020
What is wrong with the elderly with serious disease just self-isolating, if they choose, instead of ring-fencing residents of an entire city with a vaccine where it is not even clear it is safe OR effective?
The COVID-19 "experts" advising Trump are sick.

There has been a complete bias against using Hydroxychloroquine to the point of claiming it is unsafe, but they are going to give people an untested vaccine. I don't detect any pharmaceutical company influence on this at all.
