President Donald Trump leaves a daily news conference about the coronavirus at the White House on Tuesday, April 21, 2020. Dr. Rick Bright, who led the federal agency involved in developing a coronavirus vaccine, says that he was removed from his post after he pressed for rigorous vetting of hydoxycholoroquine, a coronavirus treatment embraced by Trump.
WASHINGTON - The Trump administration failed to prepare for the onslaught of the coronavirus, then sought a quick fix by trying to rush an unproven drug to patients, a senior government scientist alleged in a whistleblower complaint Tuesday.
Dr. Rick Bright, former director of the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority, alleges he was reassigned to a lesser role because he resisted political pressure to allow widespread use of hydroxychloroquine, a malaria drug pushed by President Donald Trump. He said the Trump administration wanted to "flood" hot spots in New York and New Jersey with the drug.
