Not wanting to take part in the vaccine is one thing but not trusting it because it was made under a president they disapprove of is a dangerous strategy to use.
"We need to put to rest any concept that this was rushed in any inappropriate way. This is really solid,” Fauci said of the coronavirus vaccine candidates, two of which have reached nearly 95% effectiveness in Phase 3 clinical trials. Pfizer plans to apply for Emergency Use Authorization for its candidate “within days,” according to the company.
Fauci, the nation’s leading infectious disease expert, said he had heard “some reticence” about the safety and efficacy of the forthcoming vaccine given the speediness of its development.
“The process of the speed did not compromise at all safety nor did it compromise scientific integrity,” Fauci said.

The infectious disease expert also noted that, “An independent body of people who have no allegiance to anyone-- not the administration, not to me, not to the companies, looked at the data and deemed it to be sound.”
Fauci also said people in high priority groups could expect to begin getting vaccinated by the end of December.

General Gustave Perna , chief operating officer of Operation Warp Speed, went ahead and laid out a vaccine distribution plan, saying vaccines would be shipped within 24 hours of Emergency Use Authorization and people would be getting vaccinated within another 24 hours.

Perna said that the Pfizer vaccine would immediately be transported to UPS and Fedex facilities for distribution and dry ice kits would be delivered to sites of vaccine administration.
He said his team had prepared 100 million ancillary kits containing needles, alcohol swabs, etc. and were preparing to distribute them at the same time.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo also spoke out against the Trump administration regarding trust for a vaccine. On Sept. 24, he said in a statement that he would have state officials review the safety of any vaccine the president supports.
"The federal government's response to COVID and the White House's dispute with the FDA raises serious questions about whether or not the vaccine has become politicized," Cuomo said. "Frankly, I'm not going to trust the federal government's opinion and I wouldn't recommend it to New Yorkers based on the federal government's opinion.”/
On one hand they are locking their people down due to the virus but on the other they will not accept any treatment for the virus because they do not like the person giving it to them, quite childish.
