Former Operation Warp Speed adviser Moncef Slaoui is taking aim at President Joe Biden for his “very negative description” of former President Donald Trump’s vaccine plan.
During an appearance on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” Margaret Brennan showed Slaoui a video of Biden accusing the Trump administration of failing to order enough vaccines.
She asked Slaoui, “Is that fair?”
He replied, “I think that’s a very negative description of the reality. I do think that we had plans, and, in fact, 90% of what’s happening now is the plan that we had. Of course, the first thing was to accelerate the development of the vaccine. We contracted specifically a hundred million doses of vaccine.”
Pres. Biden has criticized the Trump White House for failing to provide enough COVID-19 vaccine doses.
