[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know Joe Biden would have handled this infinitely better because he and Obama had a Pandemic Response Team in place as well as a pandemic plan.  Trump got rid of both of them.

But not to be political, things will change for the better in January if we have a new administration.  I know this.  [b]We’ll have a national plan[/b].

Our schools(not DC) are already back and the precautions of our governor are good.  We’re prioritizing school (no parties, no playdates) and still taking all precautions.

But normal?  Pre-covid normal where we hugged people, went to concerts and plays, hung out at friends homes inside for hours... not coming back for at least another year.  [/quote]

To do what?  Again, public health is a police power reserved to the states.  The Feds provide money (check), technical assistance when requested, FEMA response (when requested; check); regulate pharmaceuticals (fast-tracked test kits, vaccines and therapeutics, along with funding and guaranteed purchase of approved vaccines; check); supposedly control the borders (please don't tell me that Biden's plan will do a better job of tracking entrants or would even think of travel bans); negotiation with corporations to provide ventilators and PPE (check); use of the military for logistical assistance in vaccine distribution (check); again, don't tell me that the Biden "national plan" would be better at encouraging production of pharmaceuticals and PPE in the U.S.

Mask mandate - not constitutional; National Lock-down - not constitutional; Quarantines between states - not constitutional.

So Joe will do a better job at modeling mask-wearing and having crowds at his inaugural stand in spaced hula hoops?

I am so tired of people who have no knowledge of epidemiology or public health infrastructure go on like this.  [/quote]
