Politico: Biden’s Covid team split over decision to send vaccine doses abroad
The announcement Monday followed a call between President Joe Biden and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The White House’s decision to send millions of doses of AstraZeneca’s Covid-19 vaccine overseas has split top Biden administration officials — with many arguing that the government cannot reduce its stockpile of doses on hand given recent disruptions in U.S. vaccine production.

‘I’m Really Going To Be In Trouble’ - Biden
Since when does the president get in trouble with someone for answering a reporter's question on an infectious disease>?
WHO REALLY IS IN CHARGE?
Trump was so bad....vaccine was done under his sight, production too, selfishness also...heu, not really, under Biden administration too. Well, everything bad now is better than good thing previously. We have to be honest.
