WASHINGTON, Dec 23, Reuters - The White House is grateful that former U.S. President Donald Trump received and promoted the COVID-19 vaccine booster shot, press secretary Jen Psaki said on Thursday.
The Republican former president recently said in an interview that he received a booster shot and called the COVID-19 vaccine one of the greatest achievements of mankind. Trump said that the ones that get very sick and go to the hospital are the ones that don't take the vaccine, and that's why he said in an interview with conservative commentator Candace Owens. "We're grateful that the former president got the booster, and we're grateful that he made clear in a recent interview that they work and they're safe," Psaki told reporters in a briefing on Thursday.
