New York – The outgoing US President Donald Trump and the governor of New York Andrew Cuomo are truly not the best of friends. In the course of the Corona-Pandemie in the USA the city of millions was hit hard by the new virus, especially at the beginning. US media reported at the time that the virus had probably been secretly spreading in the huge city for weeks.
Currently the city threatens to become one again Corona-Hotspot to become. Right at the forefront of the fight from the start: Governor Cuomothat hard Donald Trumps* Dealing with the Coronavirus criticized in the USA *. The time wrote at the time that the governor found the role of his life during the pandemic. He was often portrayed as a contrast to the US president, who with his Corona-Politics caused a lot of criticism.
No corona vaccine for New York? Trump claims Cuomo doesn’t want cans for the state
Now the duel between the two men continues. In its first press conference after the US elections *, in Trump’s performance of the USA in the Corona-Pandemie praised and first hints towards one Biden * government made, he let decisive words State New York fall. Indeed, according to Trump, millions of vaccine doses would be dispensed within a few weeks and made available to the general population by April – with the exception of the New York Statebecause the governor does not consider the vaccine to be safe.
We can’t deliver it to a state that won’t give it to its people right away.
Exactly expressed itself Trump as follows: “By April the vaccine will be available to the general population. Except for places like the state New York*in which for political reasons the Governor have decided – I think it’s not very good politically, I think it’s very bad for health reasons – that he wants to take his time with the vaccination and has no confidence in where the vaccination comes from. Coming from the greatest companies, the greatest laboratories in the world. But he doesn’t trust the fact that it’s this one White House*, this government is. We’re not going to deliver the vaccine to New York until we’re authorized to do so, and it pains me to say that. It’s a very successful, a terrific vaccine with more than 90 percent and more. Governor Cuomo will have to tell us when he’s ready, we can’t deliver it to a state that won’t give it to its people right away. “
Vaccine for New York: Trump lets Governor Cuomo run at press conference

What the President says is not true. Cuomo According to him, there was a time when such a statement was made by a US presidents almost impossible for Trump normal. The state trusts the pharmaceutical companies, it just doesn’t trust them US presidents. Several states, including New York, have set up a separate scientific body to deal with the Corona vaccine to consider. In order to restore the trust of the population.
Corona vaccine: Cuomo strikes back – establish trust in vaccine
He call the people from New York then to get the vaccine given. In short means Cuomos Statement that several states are having the vaccine tested in parallel in order to reassure their population because of the political agenda on the part Trump are insecure. Because a vaccine that people don’t trust, the governor concludes in his statement, makes no sense. As Politico reported, according to a current survey, more than 50 percent are unsure about the corona vaccination. (aka) * Merkur.de is part of the Ippen-Digital network.
