Still, President Donald Trump spoke for the first time publicly after Joe Biden’s victory was declared in the US presidential election. Speaking of advances in the vaccine jointly developed by Pfizer and BioNTech, Trump has not stopped tackling the choice, whose defeat he refuses to accept.
Addressing the economic impact of the pandemic and the recovery the country is already experiencing, Trump said “time will tell” who the next administration will be.
“Confinement costs, according to some estimates, 50,000 million dollars (42.25 million euros) and thousands of jobs every day. Ideally, we will not go to lockdown; Yo, this administration will not go to the lockdown. Whatever happens, whoever the next administration is, time will tell, one thing I guarantee you: this administration will not order national lockdown, “said Donald Trump at the White House.
The statements were made on the day that various media and electoral research centers gave each candidate a new victory at the state level. Georgia, the state where elections officials have already ensured there will be a recount, will assign its 16 delegates to the Electoral College to Joe Biden. Trump is already conquering North Carolina and its 15 delegates, as in 2016.
Praising his program to accelerate vaccine development, Trump reveals that “no one believes” that Covid-19 inoculation will arrive “five times faster” than any other vaccine in history. The president anticipates that, with the vaccine, “this phase of the pandemic will disappear.”
“In April, the vaccine will be widely available to the general population, at no cost,” announced the president, who also clarified that his home state of New York will not receive the vaccine, due to the “politically motivated” refusal of Governor Andrew Cuomo .
