Are you trying to imply this was a lie or misinformation? Conditions continue to evolve, as do recommendations by experts. The President of the US is listening to experts.

Neither did calling out Biden for doing the right thing based on the best info available to him.

The person I responded to has clearly chosen his path. All too often, that path leads to abusing veterinary supplies... and telling the world how awesome it is to do so.

The grandparent poster listed an example of election day incorrect information, the person you responded to listed an example of a politician stating incorrect information. Whether it's a good example or not is highly debatable but ad hominem style attacks don't help your argument.

It wasn't a good example. It was a terrible one that can't be cited in good faith.
