Biden promises ‘no national shutdown’ despite surge in COVID-19 • Iowa Capital Dispatch

President-elect Joe Biden vowed there will be “no national shutdown” despite a surge in COVID-19 cases in multiple states.

iowacapitaldispatch.com

President-elect Joe Biden pressed the urgent need for economic relief and a vaccine distribution plan for states and tribes after a video meeting Thursday with bipartisan leaders of the National Governors Association.
But Biden in a press conference in Wilmington, Del., also vowed there will be “no national shutdown” despite a surge in COVID-19 cases in multiple states in recent weeks. Biden argued that a wide shutdown would be counterproductive because the prevalence of the virus, which has killed more than a quarter million Americans, differs state to state.
“It’s not shutting down everything, it’s calibrating based on what the threat is,” he said.
It was a definitive statement from Biden, who will be under intense pressure to swiftly deal with COVID-19 as soon as he takes office on Jan. 20. Earlier, a member of his coronavirus task force, Dr. Michael Osterholm of the University of Minnesota, stirred controversy by suggesting a four-to-six-week lockdown with aid for Americans whose jobs would be hit, though the Iowa native later said the idea had not been discussed with anyone and would lack public support.

Governors from 10 states including Democrats Jared Polis of Colorado and Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan and Republican Larry Hogan of Maryland met with Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris for the first time since they won the November election. The governors are members of the executive committee of the NGA. Members of the Biden coronavirus task force also attended.

Biden's cabal is just itching to shut us down again.

I agree with jumpin Joe about no national shutdown. The vaccine will have to be on a voluntary basis with each persons GP approval. I would think the economic stimulus to be a short term failure though. I have no idea what prez Trump will push for after Jan 20th but I am reasonably sure he would also agree that there will be no national shutdown on business'.

 

[Manonthestreet]

So Joe wants to kill thousands with inaction........

 

[TNHarley]

He cant shut the Nation down.
Of course, Presidential limitations have never stopped them before.

So he's basically going to do the same thing as Trump after criticizing Trump's Covid policies for the entire campaign? Nice how Joe lied his ass off! Nice how the main stream media won't bring that up!

Those exclamation points insinuate surprise. Why?

 

[Oldestyle]

The only thing that can save Biden's wrinkly old ass at this point with the pandemic are the vaccines that Trump fast tracked. Other than that he's got ZERO ideas on how to address the pandemic! Now why doesn't that shock me! (eye roll)

We need a national shut down, but only for the MIC, pentagon, federal government and the MSM.

I'm not surprised at all, TN! You could see this coming a mile off! Joe Biden ran on the most vague campaign since Barack Obama and nobody EVER asked him the hard questions they should have!

You mean to tell me he is going to allow the states to set their own rules and guidelines, while supporting their needs with the full means of the federal government?
So basically the trump plan, but it’s now praised by you and other democrats because it’s a democrat doing it.
Got it.

Biden didn’t get any tough questions? What a dishonest liar you are.
Have you ever tried to name your favorite ice cream flavor???
It was truly impressive seeing Biden field that question and other equally pressing questions.

Didn't he talk about shutting down the country for a few weeks? I guess you can't really trust him as he seems to change with the whims of others.

So what is the point of your post, that he's lying before getting near the White House? Previously he stated he would "listen to the science" he would do whatever the experts told him to do. Now he's saying if Fauci and the CDC say shutdown the country, he's not actually going to do it?
