A White House decision to halt release of new standards for emergency authorization of a Covid-19 vaccine came after officials close to President Donald Trump told the FDA that the pharmaceutical industry had objected to the tougher requirements, according to three people with knowledge of the situation.
Trump has repeatedly telegraphed his eagerness to deliver a vaccine before Nov. 3, and one drug maker – Pfizer – has said it could still meet that timeline. During last week’s presidential debate, Trump went as far as to assert he’d been personally assured a coronavirus vaccine could be ready within weeks.
But in initial conversations about the new guidelines, current and former administration officials told POLITICO the White House’s Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs – which oversees all federal rulemaking – highlighted industry objections as among the key problems with the new standards.Soon afterward, Trump during a Sept.
SethAbramson Trump is literally an oompah loompa on steroids now. 🤣😂
SethAbramson There is no doubt.
SethAbramson I’ve been looking forward to a vaccine. Now I fear I shouldn’t trust it.
RoxRolls TDS fake news!
Pfizer believes it may know whether its vaccine candidate is safe and effective before the election. Yet participants in the trials are advising of ‘intense’ side effects. Why are the EU and Canada fast tracking Pfizer and BioNTech’s Covid vaccine despite warning signs?
JoanieSay I think trump has invested in a drug company who will produce a vaccine that will be largely untested, will not have FDA or CDC approval and kill us all. People should be wise that trump is crazy and deranged...don’t let him experiment on you for profit.
What else is new? Trump does his “best” work making illicit deals
SethAbramson A dictator move.
Pfizer needs to take a lesson about deregulation from Boeing and not go down that same path.
Please...For the love of God and all that is good...stop this insanity!!! What does it take to have a president removed that is clearly mentally ill, unstable, destroying our country & risk people's lives. He is a terrorist to the United States! Can't you see?
SethAbramson well duh
No early rushed “trump” Covid vaccine for me. I definitely trust the doctors/scientists over the wack job currently living at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. it’s now 4 weeks until we as voters get to replace insanity with what this country deserves, true leadership. God Bless USA!!
SethAbramson Trump is 100% looking for a kickback from whatever company produces this drug. “We got this thing here. And it’s golden.”
Say no to FEAR!!! Our STRONG FEARLESS leader Trump vs COWARD Basement Biden. What do you want? Lockdowns or Freedom & Prosperity! Republicans choose freedom and prosperity!!!
Would not surprise anyone.. dishonesty and deceit are Trump Family values.
😱
Bs
SethAbramson What doctor is going to give a vaccine to a patient if he or she can’t trust it.
SethAbramson Obviously. He has stocks in them.
gawd, are people even remotely surprised by this?
Bevfriesen1 MOTHER F SCUM BAG SLIME DOG SON OF A FEMALE DOG!!!!!! DAMN BIG PHARMA AND FDA PROMISES TO UPHOLD SCIENCE AND PULLS THIS CRAP! SCREW ALL OF THEM! I WILL GET A VACCINE WHEN CANADA APPROVED IT! OR THE EU!
SethAbramson OhOh !!!

SethAbramson I’m sure TeamPelosi & RepAdamSchiff would be interested
SethAbramson Whistleblowers, please help your country, and stop this before it gets too far. Thanks.
SethAbramson Gosh. Wouldn't THAT be a scandal in any other Presidency.
SethAbramson TrumpZ vaccine.
SethAbramson Shocking
SethAbramson If it's immoral or illegal, you can bet Trump has something to do with it.
SethAbramson If he can do it corruptly he will.
SethAbramson No vaccine for me, nope. I will wait until Dr. Fauci says it is okay.
SethAbramson We need to make sure such bypass does not waive liability if the drugs turn out to cause more harm than good. Legislatively FDA rules were set up to protect lives.
SethAbramson Doesn't he or someone in the administration have a large amount of shares with Pfizer?
SethAbramson Who is crazy enough to get a vaccine that hasn’t been properly tested and approved? And from *this* administration? No thanks.
SethAbramson doesn't he already control the regulators?
PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS!! Trump owes over $400,000,000 mostly to Russian banks. These debts are due in the next few years. He can't pay them. He will refuse to give up any precious golf courses. If he stays in office he might sell out oour country to Russia. We are all in danger.
but that's how EVERYTHING works now!
Trump gave Pfizer billions. It's a done deal they are sneaking around behind regulator's backs. Trump cheats.
How MANY swamp Creatures have turned up trying to undermine POTUS since he took office? To many to Count These self serving creatures don't care ABOUT American's POTUS LOVES AMERICA I have Faith in GOD And trust in OUR President👍🙏😇💓🇺🇸
Any deal with Trump is a bad deal and bound to end in disaster and corruption?
Canada, since 2014, was turning GPHIN into a bureaucracy. Covid19 is fixing that. Science should never be made political.
It’s straitjacket time for Trump ( he should be removed no questions asked ) risking even more human lives than before ( infectious disease needs removal from government )
Prof_Tweeper They announced tonight that they’re going to block the FDA from much need (apolitical) testing protocols. That’s absolutely insane.
WELL..., WHEN ‘POLITICAL, REGULATORS’ TAINT THE ‘FAST TRACKING’ OF A ‘VACCINE’ ! POTUS WANTS TO HEAR FROM ‘DRUG COMPANIES’ DIRECTLY!
No way Trump would do that...no way
We all know that trump is going to announce a vaccine before the election, whether it is safe and effective or not.
Does anyone know when trumps last covid test was? Watched Chris Wallace say trumps got to the debate to late to get one?
Cheaters gonna cheat...
klingensmith_j Boycott pfizer if this is true
Trump could care less if a vaccine is dangerous just as long as there is one that he can tout.
Back channel? He is the President of the United States. There is no such thing as back channel when it comes to POTUS.
When I heard he had put Azar over signing off on things I knew this was happening
We have to assume this is happening with this administration.
The FDA is an efficient, apolitical organization that never seeks revenge when slighted, never bows to large interests, and only operates in the public interest ... said no one ever.
Trump was never sick. He just faked his illness to make money behind the scenes and for his friends to profit. The situation does not make appropriate sense for what has occurred the last few days. Trump played a card for the sympathetic votes and to make money. TrumpCovidHoax
I hope.
Donald 'Lazarus' Trump.
Sure Biff..
Gee, what could possibly go wrong!?!?
Gee you think?! That doesn’t sound like a trump thing to do... oh no wait, it totally does
And him and his friends are buying their stocks.
Oh gee ya think? TrumpCovid19 COVIDIOT TrumpCovidHoax
Politiho is raising the concerns.
president petri dish back to his criminal behavior.
No doubt!
He’s desperate to announce a vaccine before Election Day
Lemme guess....more unnamed anonymous sources?
