About this episode
Operation Warp Speed was an unprecedented fusion of government and private industry to create a vaccine against COVID-19. What normally would take four or five years to accomplish was done in less than one. Paul Mango, then deputy chief of staff for the Department of Health and Human Services, was there to make sure everything happened according to plan. Under President Donald Trump, Mango was the liaison to Operation Warp Speed. Mango joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to detail how the vaccines were developed and to discuss his new book “ Warp Speed: Inside the Operation That Beat COVID, the Critics, and the Odds .” We also cover these stories: Two top House Republicans say they won’t support the Senate’s new legislation restricting gun ownership.
