Why it’s called the Obama- Biden Pandemic. Just ask the USA Today, LA Times, and Bloomberg.

Why it’s called the Obama- Biden Pandemic. Just ask the USA Today LA Times, and Bloomberg. Back in April of 2020 the USA Today did a fact check on why we had a supply shortage.

Every once and a while I get e-mails asking why I call this the Obama- Biden Pandemic. The latest e-mail says there was no COVID when Obama was President. This from USA Today.

On March 26, The Daily Wire published an article centering on the Obama administration’s role in using and allegedly failing to replenish the federal stockpile of N95 masks.

“The Obama administration significantly depleted the federal stockpile of N95 respirator masks to deal with the H1N1 influenza outbreak in 2009 and never rebuilt the stockpile despite calls to do so,” the piece begins.

The article draws from the reporting of outlets including Bloomberg News and the Los Angeles Times. According to Bloomberg News, “after the H1N1 influenza outbreak in 2009, which triggered a nationwide shortage of masks and caused a 2- to 3-year backlog orders for the N95 variety, the stockpile distributed about three-quarters of its inventory and didn’t build back the supply.”

Remember the MSM, Tony the Fauch, NIH, CDC,WHO, ETC. SAID THESE WERE LIFE SAVING SUPPLIES. So those folks needed someone to blame. And the USA, LA Times, and Bloomberg said the Obama administration.

 

USA Today. Our rating: True

We rate this claim TRUE because it is supported by our research. There is no indication that the Obama administration took significant steps to replenish the supply of N95 masks in the Strategic National Stockpile after it was depleted from repeated crises. Calls for action came from experts at the time concerned for the country’s ability to respond to future serious pandemics. Such recommendations were, for whatever reason, not heeded.
