I remember seeing a photo early on of 3 past presidents, from different sides of politics all promoting vaccination together

I do think Trump badly handled the early days of Covid and that let it spread so readily in US.

The first national shut down was in March 2020.

news.yahoo.com/covid-19-shutdown-timelin...demic-192142557.html

March 2020 — The pandemic hits

Then after that state governors had more power to shut down as they saw fit.

Trump lied the entire time, till the first vaccines were put on the market. Then he wanted to take all the credit.

This is about 2024 Presidential Race. Ok? That is a Federal race, note: "presidential race". States have Governor races This is about the whole United States, not what states did!
Let me apologize now if it didn't make it very clear.

Yes, True Biden made everything happen, created the vaccines himself, delivered all of them himself, but I'm don't think it's true but rumor was it was all dispensed the vaccines by Senator/President Biden.

And the link was very informative, But that story does not mention any federal shutdown. If confused about state and federal, refer to the above paragraph.

The way Trump politicised Covid and encouraged non compliance with regulations like masks was a big factor in Covid spreading so rapidly in US.

Of course Biden, like anyone in any country who became leader after the pandemic was already in full swing cannot turn back the clock and undo that.

I don't think Trump politicalized COVID, if on looks back, Trump tried to stop travel for China before the mass spread, but It was politicalized calling Trump actions were being racist.

Trump was calling the shot as he was being advised. In hindsight, it appears to be the right call about the masks.

The left mouth piece was saying it will take 12 to 18 months to get a vaccine for CIVID and Trump stated it would be done before the end of the year, and it was.

If one would look at where the high numbers of death with COVID where in retirement home and hospitals were the was 99.999% they had a serious health problem or multiple serious health problems.

And at the end COVID scare, if my memory serves me right there were only around 1400 death from COVID alone.

Trump had a distribution of the vaccine in place to have it distributed to the states and a large quantity paid for. It is the states responsibility to distribute it with in their own state.

And IMO, Biden administration has in their heads that they didn't have to do what Trump had coordinated. And make me believe it even more, was two more actions that was pre-arranged that the Biden administration thought they could ignore was the departure from Afghanistan agreement in May and the the supply chain that was backed up at the docks.
