Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel has said she thinks COVID-19 is “an incredibly contagious disease.” She made the comment during an interview Sunday after fighting her own battle with the virus earlier this month.
“I think people are getting sick and they don’t even know where,” she explained. Nonetheless, she noted President Trump’s push to continue testing and get a vaccine available is what will help the nation get out of the pandemic.
“I think the President, with what he’s done with the (Operation) Warp Speed vaccines…the testing, these are going to be the things that are going to get us out of this pandemic,” stated McDaniel. “The President taking that swift action early on is putting our country in a better place to fight this terrible virus.”
“Experts are saying, with genuine confidence, that the pandemic in the United States will be over far sooner than they expected.” – The New York Times
Thanks to @realDonaldTrump’s efforts, we are closer than ever to a vaccine!

According to the RNC chairwoman, the American people know President Trump is the best candidate to lead the nation out of the pandemic because he is already doing it.
