'Fear not! We come bearing gifts!'
Haiti, reeling from the assassination of its president and the coronavirus pandemic, has
received its first half-million doses of COVID-19 vaccines, the United Nations Children's Emergency Fund said Thursday.
UNICEF said in a statement
the doses were donated by the U.S. and delivered Wednesday through COVAX, an initiative for the equitable distribution of COVID-19 vaccines.
"Until yesterday,
Haiti was the only country in the Americas without a single dose of a COVID-19 vaccine,"
UNICEF said in a statement Thursday.
"Thanks to this donation, hundreds of thousands of Haitians will receive their shots against COVID-19," UNICEF said. "Yet, despite the collective efforts to kickstart the vaccination campaign soon, most of the Haitian population is at risk of remaining unvaccinated due to the limited availability of doses currently in the country."
In an exclusive interview with VOA, U.S. National Security Council member Juan Gonzalez said the decision to speed up vaccine delivery came after a U.S. delegation visited Port-au-Prince on Sunday.
Comment: This is not generating the optics they think it is. It's a
really bad look to ship American mRNA 'vaccines' to a country whose leader was taken out days earlier by
a hit-team based in Florida after he
refused earlier 'gifts' of 750,000 AstraZeneca 'vaccines' because he was apparently holding out for a less evil batch of vials.
The last time a Haitian president was assassinated, in 1915, US president Woodrow Wilson sent in US Marines to 'restore order'. That invasion and occupation of Haiti by the US lasted 16 years.
Now, thanks to the wonders of biotechnology, they just need to send in 'vaccines'?...
Comment: CNN may feign outrage and deny that they want to use a stick but it is consistent with previously aired segments. Below is another example of a CNN host discussing the legitimacy of using a "bigger stick":
