Former Presidents George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, and Barack Obama may end up taking a COVID-19 vaccine on TV to help ease people's concerns about the vaccine being "rushed."
Bush has apparently reached out to White House coronavirus task force members Dr. Anthony Fauci and Dr. Deborah Birx to volunteer to help encourage US citizens to take the vaccine.
The former president’s chief of staff, Freddy Ford, told CNN, “First, the vaccines need to be deemed safe and administered to the priority populations. Then, President Bush will get in line for his, and will gladly do so on camera."
In an interview, former President Obama also vowed to take the vaccine once it’s deemed safe.
He said, “I may end up taking it on TV or having it filmed, just so that people know that I trust this science, and what I don’t trust is getting COVID.”
