Bull-shot!
The official White House Twitter account posted false COVID-19 information Thursday, wrongly claiming there was “no vaccine available” when President Biden took office in January 2021.
“When President Biden took office, millions were unemployed and there was no vaccine available,” the verified account tweeted to its 7 million followers Thursday.
“In the last 15 months, the economy has created 8.3 [million] jobs and the unemployment rate stands at 3.6% — the fastest decline in unemployment to start a President’s term ever recorded,” the tweet concluded.
But eagle-eyed critics were quick to point out that the 79-year-old Biden actually received his first dose of the vaccine on December 2020 – a month before he moved in at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
One Twitter user even shared a photo of a masked Biden getting the jab.
“Today, I received the COVID-19 vaccine,” read the president’s original tweet from Dec. 21, 2020. “To the scientists and researchers who worked tirelessly to make this possible – thank you. We owe you an awful lot. And to the American people – know there is nothing to worry about. When the vaccine is available, I urge you to take it.” --->READ MORE HERE

Radio Free Asia has a disturbing new report on outbound travel from China — a “blanket ban on ‘non-essential’” travel — as the Chinese Communist Party’s Covid-zero campaign intensifies:
China on Thursday announced it would place strict curbs on “non-essential” travel overseas by its nationals, amid a surge in immigration inquiries after weeks of grueling mass testing, lockdowns and forcible mass transportation to quarantine camps.
“On the afternoon of May 10, the National Immigration Administration [ruling Chinese Communist] Party committee held a meeting on strengthening disease control and prevention,” the administration said via its Weibo account on Thursday.
“According to the requirements of the meeting . . . it will be necessary to strictly implement entry and exit policies, strictly restrict non-essential departures of Chinese citizens, and strictly approve and issue exit and entry documents,” it said.
The RFA report also shed light on the situation in Shanghai, which has been ground zero for the latest phase of the party’s brutal Covid policy. --->READ MORE HEREFollow links below to relevant/related stories and resources:
