“I will say that I would not trust Donald Trump” on the reliability of a vaccine, Harris said. The California senator, however, added that she would trust a “credible” source who could vouch that a vaccine was safe for Americans to receive.
Harris also expressed concern that Trump has continued to contradict his own health officials amid a pandemic and suggested Friday that a vaccine would “probably” be available in October for the virus, which has killed more than 188,000 people in the U.S. as of Saturday.
“If past is prologue ... they'll be muzzled. They'll be suppressed,” Harris said of health experts and scientists. “They will be sidelined because he’s looking at an election coming up in less than 60 days, and he's grasping for whatever he can get to pretend he has been a leader on this issue when he has not.”
Harris’ concerns come after a growing number of health officials and politicians, including Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, said the administration's inconsistent approach to the coronavirus could solidify American’s skepticism on the safety of a vaccine.
"Why do we think, God willing, when we get a vaccine — that is good, works — why do we think the public is gonna line up to be willing to take the injection?" Joe Biden asked on Wednesday. "We've lost so much confidence, the American people, in what's said [by the Trump administration]."

That all seems eminently sensible to me. Do you think perhaps your "cartoon" is selectively biased? Or that you're selectively biased?
As for which Americans are vaccine-hesitant, the news reports in Britain suggest it's mostly unvaccinated Republicans who continue to die. 267 yesterday as a typical value, apparently. I doubt they're vaccine-hesitant because of anything said by Biden/Harris, do you? But that's what your untalented partisan lie-piece is trying to say.
I'm delighted you're accumulating all this contemporary evidence into your thread though, it'll be a treasure trove in years to come when people try to work out what motivated American sentiment.
