So they want to name the vaccine after Trump?

Wouldn't it figure that, hurried and untested as it is, that this vaccine has hideous or deadly side effects that don't reveal themselves until well after everyone is treated. Much like Donald Trump himself.

The late night TV commercials of the near future may be 'Did you take the Trump vaccine in 2020? If so, you could be due a sizeable settlement". "Call RWL Guiliani and associates today and make them pay!"

4. Let us simply refer to it as the "Vaccine for the Trump Virus"

Somehow, this might not be the same as the Salk Vaccine for polio, so I would be a little unsure why Trump gets credit for the vaccine; however, he should get complete credit for single-handedly letting the virus spiral out of control in the US.

Hence, the Vaccine for the Trump Virus or VFTTV for short.

8. Maybe the world will name the virus after the Chinese scientists who quickly identified the virus

genome. THAT work is the basis for ALL the viruses. While it is possible that China was not upfront early on, they did give the world the genome information -- which is far more than "doing nothing" that Trump speaks of.
