Barack Obama has been mocked for saying he would take a future Covid-19 vaccine live on camera to prove its safety. Critics quickly recalled a similar βstuntβ when he drank newly cleaned water in Flint, Michigan.
βI promise you that when itβs been made for people who are less at risk, I will be taking it,βΒ Obama said of a potential vaccine in a SiriusXM radio interview released on Thursday. βI may end up taking it on TV or having it filmed, just so that people know that I trust this science,βΒ he added.
