>NO ONE was calling it 'the Trump vaccine.'
While most didn't say trump vaccine directly, they alluded to trump being the main push behind it.
>. No one on the left was polarizing response to Covid other than complaining that the current government was downplaying the severity.
It apparently was racist to close the border for china. MANY people called trumps response overblown, until suddenly it was way too little.
>Even when it was apparent to the entire planet that this was a serious pandemic the right was pretending nothing was wrong.
"The right" was much faster to react than the left. That includes initial response and calling for opening back up.
>Then it was not really a problem because the first places it hit were large urban centers (aka Democratic-voting areas) so maybe this wasn't so bad after all and we can just wait for 'herd immunity' was the claim of the Trump crowd.
I have a hard time finding any source on that. Could you link me any?
>You have a serious problem with reality and the truth if you think that people on the left waited until after the election to start pushing for a vaccine and for trying to take active steps to contain and control Covid spread.
I am not saying that EVERYONE on the left was like that, just that I first started seeing the politicization come from the left. Quite an important difference.
These are examples that took me just a few minutes to find again with people who flipped their opinion quite hard, along with that, trump has been pro vaccine for a long time.
