Biden Admin Pats Self On Back After 'Gifting' Vaccine To 0.015% Of Trinidad Population Last Thursday, US President Joe Biden announced that the United States would donate 500 million doses of Pfizer's COVID-19 vaccine to the world's poorest countries with "no strings attached." On Sunday, the US State Department proudly tweeted that they had donated 80 vials to Trinidad and Tobago, which has a population of 1.4 million.

US Ambassador to Trinidad and Tobago, Joseph Mondello. The mockery came hard and fast: They legit had to open a flat, count out 80 (or 115), then put the rest back into cold storage.

"This has nothing to do with any large donation that we expect is being considered by the United States Government," he told the Trinidad Daily Express. "This is just a small number for the Ministry of National Security as a gift which we are happy to accept." Ah - so the Biden admin was congratulating itself over a gift that's meant for bureaucrats! The island nation has recorded 29,000 cases of COVID-19 and 670 deaths thus far, after a steep rise in May. Tyler Durden Mon, 06/14/2021 - 21:20
