Dr. Zeke Emanuel, a member of projected presidential winner Joe Biden’s pandemic advisory board, believes the government should follow a vaccine distribution model that prioritizes global inoculation over “vaccine nationalism.”

Emanuel is one of ten doctors on Biden’s team of public health experts that have been tapped to develop the current president-elect’s national Covid-19 strategy. He previously served under the Obama administration as one of the chief developers of the Affordable Care Act.  

The oncologist was the lead author of the “Fair Priority Model,” which advocates for world governments to practice ethical global vaccine distribution by providing other countries with a supply, before completely inoculating their own country’s population.    

The Trump administration has indicated they would follow what the model refers to as “vaccine nationalism.” Health and Human Services Secretary, Alex Azar, said that the government’s first priority was to produce enough FDA approved vaccines to treat the nation. 

“But we anticipate having [a] capacity that, once those needs are satisfied, those products would be available in the world community according to fair and equitable distributions that we would consult in the international community on,” he announced in August.  

The Trump administration’s $10 billion Operation Warp Speed aims to deliver 300 million doses of a “safe and effective vaccine” to the American public beginning in January 2021. Pfizer, who announced its phase three vaccine’s 90% efficacy rate on Monday, is set to distribute 100 million doses nationwide upon FDA approval. 

Emanuel, who is the chair of the Department of Bioethics at the National Institutes of Health, asserts that the “absolute priority” of a nation’s citizens is unethical in the paper he co-authored. While the model allows for some “national partiality,” once herd immunity is reached, it asserts that the government has “crossborder responsibilities” to the counties which have not. 

Biden’s website labels Operation Warp Speed as a “Trump Fiasco,” that lacks “global vision.” Under “The Biden Plan,” the manufacturing and distribution of a vaccine would “accelerate a global approach” that includes restoring the United States’ relationship with the World Health Organization to “coordinate a global response” to the coronavirus.  

The “Plan to Beat Covid-19” does not mention prioritizing the nation’s citizens, but does state that it will take the steps to “guarantee the fair distribution of all vaccines.”

          1. Do you mean native american or the asian nation of India? You do know it was common practice in WW2 for African troops to tell asians they were the “REAL” american “indians!”

            Got that for several vets I have worked with that actually served in WW2! Also heard from many vets of Vietnam they were still doing so!

          2. Korea here and i never heard that They are not the American Indians and HARRIS is neither she a MIXED breed . that grew up in Canada that’s why she wants to socialist our health system that’s all she ever knew anything about . She has only paid taxes in America for 15 years . and PEOPLE want a scarred knee’s raised Canadian as our VPO and after a few months our PRESIDENT that makes me want to Throw up BARF !!!!

    1. Well Obama was his teacher. He would probably give Biden an “A” with a side comment to remember to bow and kiss up to to the World Leaders no matter how much they screw America. Oh yes and don’t forget to provide other Nations with taxpayers money as I did.

      1. And it’s frightening to see how many of NObama’s minions are in line to fill Dementia Biden’s cabinet and advisors. Hard to tell who among those anti-Americans (and known liars such as Susan Rice) are the worst but Ezek Emanuel, a large force behind the onerous Obamacare. Emanuel thinks anyone over 70/75 has lived long enough and no resources should be given to the elderly. Evidently Emanuel has failed to take note of Biden’s age. Disgusting and truly scary of what’s to come with a Biden/Harris team; not a full brain between them. As bad as Biden is, Harris, totally lacking experience and an America/American hater, is a death sentence for our country.

        GOD BLESS THE USA!!!!

  1. Buden will never be President if I have something to do about it. He doesn’t deserve to be and is the worst choice America has ever had.

  2. Typical democrat, cost to Americans is no object. After all, money grows on trees to the democrats as we’ve all seen with foreign aid.

  3. Biden’s open admission of being a traitor is now complete. This should prove, even to the most die-hard leftist, that Biden openly hates America and its people.

  4. What Country do we live in anyway??? It is supposed to be a ‘free’ one!!!??? If Trump stays in then it will be… If Biden gets in we can just forget that!!! He along with others like him will throw their own families under the bus unless they ‘do what they want’ Keep it America, then keep Trump in the Whitehouse!!!

  5. This is a blessing in one way. If they do send it out country we can find out how well it works without endangering our own citizens. This doesn’t mean that I think it should be sent out . I guess the American tax payer will pick up the tab for the rest of the world, as usual.

  6. In all probability, IF…Biden actually wins, and ALL at U.S. Taxpayer expense too!
    Hopefully, we’ll have President Trump for 4 more years, and NO…Biden-Harris.

  7. Biden will never ! never know what is being done . H is a 47 year politician that has never done anything for Americans . and he is not likely to do anything for Americans ! he will for the Commie democrats and Socialist like the old has been’s in his cabinet mostly ones that the Bummer had . and the Rest ones that ram for President against him all knowing it was aset up . Americans look out your joins will ho to iran China and any other Communist country that him and Hunter can make Billions

  8. Biden’s boy wants to give the vaccine to foreigners first. Good. Give my dose to Kim Jong Un. I don’t want it anyway

  9. Trump did this arrangement with Pfizer not as a govt doing as i understand. A certain quantity of doses have also been prepaid . Global needs have been there but this was set up for THIS country. I understand the fed govt doesnt own it, so Dr Emanual cant get it done that way. I hope this starts distribution during THIS term of office for Trump. Today news sez Emergency distribution set for end of this month. Its Trumps success . Biden & crew cant own , the product or due ocolades . YEs, many , everywhere, are hurting, going Global fuirst shows where Biden’s & Emmanuel;’s allegiance lies.

  10. Well since it looks like the American people paid for the vaccine, why should we not get our doses that WE paid for? You can bet this joker will put him first in line to get his dose. These globalists are such idiots. I don’t think the American people realized what they were going to get when they voted for Biden. Let’s pray Trump pulls out a win.

  11. Great. Illegals get healthcare/vaccine before me. People over 75 have outlived their usefulness, NOW we must provide the vaccine – all on my dime. emanuel made it very clear during the development of Ocare that there would HAVE to be rationing and certainly the elite would not be passed over so that leaves the “deplorables” on the enemies list. Scary where the US is headed and so many are applauding it.

  12. With Biden and Sons history of doing business with China you are surprised? He worked with Oblammer to fund the facility in China that gave us the Virus!

    He has supported EVERYTHING China want’s and does! Of course he’s going to manufacture vaccine (after China provides the model which they probably already have) and ship it to them.

  13. I do hope that all of you that voted for Biden/Harris appreciate that he doesn’t and the Democratic Party don’t value you at all and could care less about America.

  14. Just remember that in Dr. Zeke Emanuel’s mind , living past the age of 75 and getting health care is problematical …. and Biden is 77…

  15. This is the same jerk that said people shouldn’t live beyond age 75. Guess that means Biden will be last to receive the vaccine?

  16. For all the people who voted for sleepy Joe I don’t want to hear you bitch when he doesn’t keep one of his promises! This is prime example of helping everyone else first then maybe think of his own! What a waste of time this man is,was and always will be! One can only hope that Trump catches these corrupt bastards!

  17. SCREW EMANUEL ON HIS TREATING THE WORLD BEFORE THE USA, AFTER ALL ” WE ” DEVELOPED THE CRAP TO START WITH AND PAID FOR IT OUT OF ” OUR TAX DOLLARS “!

  18. Emanuel is pathetic. Charity begins at home. Americans must be first. How traitorous and evil can this man be to advocate dispensing our vaccine to others prior to all our residents being covered 100%. If the situation were reversed we would be on a waiting list to receive help. Who comes first, apparently this degenerate believe others.

  19. What is it going to take before conservatives come to understand, the liberal dem bloodsucking parasitical ticks are part of a group of life forms, that were born without merit, worth, value, morals, honor or integrity ?
    The only way to continue the rise of the USA is commence the civil war and immediately dispense with all of the liberal life forms.

  20. See Democrat Voters Bidens people want to give our Vaccine that President Donald trump Implemented in Warp Speed to All the foreign Countries and Let Americans die in the mean time . well just Another way of selling our country out for th

  21. Well the Stimulus that we should have received now will go on a pallet in cash like OBUMMER sent to Iran only now Biden and Soros his related Pelosi Will send it to china i bet they Let that comic that pretends to be a expert ?? at what just getting paid by tax payers for over four decades he has not been near any labs except the Wuhan one in china were he took 300.000 to there to make the virus . and now him and bill gates stand to make Billions
