I mean, at some point, a president has to stop blaming his constituents for their medical decisions and start accounting for them, particularly when the only real power he has over them is a bully pulpit.
 
Mandates are accounting for them.

That advice to account for our bad decisions rather than blame us for them doesn’t really align with the President fat shaming everyone because #science
 
Then he's a failure, because patently unlawful mandates don't accomplish anything.
 
Biden “wasted his time” making a free live saving vaccine widely available. This is a real Junebug talking point.

It’s almost as if he wants the pandemic to continue so it doesn’t look like Biden gets a “win” for the midterms.
 
That’s all it comes down to.

But remember, Trump's vaccine doesn't work if enough people don't get it; which makes it Biden's fault that we still have new variants, a partially shutdown economy, and supply chain issues. Therefore, Biden should have focused on therapeutics.

By the way, we still don't have a cure for polio, only a vaccine.

Biden's focus on prevention rather than treatment has been a real misstep, even before the hindsight gained from Omicron. Instead of ordering sufficient supplies of therapeutics, like monoclonal antibody treatment and anticipatory purchases of Paxlovid pending PDA approval, back in the fall, his administration was focused on enacting mandates. We aren't going to be able to vaccinate our way out of this considering, among other things, how quickly immunity from transmission wanes and the likelihood of additional vaccine-evading variants.

Given the contempt Biden seems to holds for the unvaccinated, it almost makes you wonder if the cruelty is the point.

Do you seriously think that "monoclonal antibody treatments for all" is more realistic than "vaccines for all"?
 
Vaccines are a shot. It's as simple as could be.

Have you heard of Paxlovid? It's a pill.

Paxlovid is available by prescription only and should be initiated as soon as possible after diagnosis of COVID-19 and within five days of symptom onset.

You have to have a prescription to get it, and you're not getting one of those without a test. Joke's on you, WakeBored, you can't get a test because I guess someone thought we had enough. Not great, Bob.

Apparently the party of abstinence to prevent HIV is now advocating for therapeutics for COVID and not, you know, prevention.

Apparently they’re just against all penetration.
