BREAKING: Biden credits the COVID vaccine for him only getting a mild case of dementia
WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a surprising turn of events, President Joe Biden held a press conference today to express his gratitude for the COVID-19 vaccine, attributing it to his “mild case of dementia” rather than a more severe affliction.
Standing at the podium with his trademark aviator sunglasses and a confident smile, President Biden addressed the nation. “Folks, I want to take a moment to thank the scientists, doctors, and healthcare workers who developed the COVID-19 vaccine,” he began. “True, I got COVID despite being constantly vaccinated and boosted, but the dementia all those shots led to has been very mild. What was I saying?”
The President’s remarks were met with a mix of bewilderment and amusement from the press corps. “Without this vaccine, I might be out there wandering the White House lawn, wondering where my pants are,” Biden chuckled, eliciting a few nervous laughs from the audience.
White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki later elaborated on the President’s statement. “What the President meant to say is that the COVID-19 vaccine has provided numerous health benefits, including potentially mitigating the severity of other conditions,” she explained. “It’s just another example of how this administration is committed to public health and safety.”
Critics, however, were quick to pounce on Biden’s comments. “This is just another instance of the President trying to deflect from his cognitive decline,” said Republican Senator Ted Cruz. “Next thing you know, he’ll be crediting the vaccine for his hair plugs.”
Not to be outdone, former President Donald Trump weighed in on Truth Social. “Sleepy Joe is at it again! Now he’s saying the vaccine helped his brain. SAD! Everyone knows I had the best brain, and I didn’t need any vaccine for it. Fake news!”
Meanwhile, the medical community was left scratching their heads. Dr. Anthony Fauci, who has become a household name during the pandemic, attempted to clarify the situation. “There’s no scientific evidence to support the claim that the COVID-19 vaccine affects dementia in any way,” Fauci stated. “It’s important to stay focused on the real benefits of vaccination, such as preventing severe illness and death from COVID-19.”
Despite the controversy, President Biden seemed unfazed. “Look, Jack, I’ve always said I’m a man of the people,” he declared. “If my mild dementia makes me more relatable to the American public, then so be it.”
The President concluded the press conference by reminding everyone to get vaccinated and boosted. “Together, we can beat this pandemic and keep our brains working just fine,” he said with a thumbs-up.
As the nation continues to navigate these challenging times, one thing is certain: President Biden’s unique brand of humor and candor will keep the public entertained, if not entirely reassured.
