Biden’s COVID-19 Consultant Suggested Sealing The Country For 4 To 6 Weeks

The epidemic has accelerated in the United States. Biden COVID-19 consultant suggested that the country be closed for 4 a 6 semanas.

Despite the recent good news about COVID-19 vaccine, it will take time to “save the economy”. Mientras tanto, the latest epidemic in the United States is accelerating. Michael Osterholm, COVID-19 consultant of Joe Biden and director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota, said on Wednesday (Noviembre 11) that before the vaccine was approved and distributed, shutting down the enterprise for 4 a 6 weeks and paying people’s lost wages during this period would help control the epidemic and put the economy on the right track.

He warned earlier this week that the United States was heading for “SARS-CoV-2 Hell”. He said on Wednesday that with more and more people suffering from “pandemic fatigue”, tired of wearing masks and keeping social distance, the number of cases is increasing rapidly. Cold weather also forces people to stay indoors, where viruses spread more easily.

Although it is not clear whether Biden will blockade the United States after taking office, his response strategy to the epidemic is quite different from that of current President Trump. His campaign team previously said that if he wins the general election, Biden’s top priority is to actively respond to the COVID-19 pandemic. Biden announced on Monday the establishment of a transitional COVID-19 advisory committee, of which Osterholm is a member, to prepare for the new government’s response to the epidemic.

Osterholm said that while the world is still waiting for vaccines, a nationwide blockade will reduce the number of new cases and hospitalizations to manageable levels. He believes that a package of expenditures can be made now to cover the wage losses of all workers. If this is done, the country can be closed for 4 a 6 semanas.

A diferencia de, according to the current development trend, the United States will be “dark” before the vaccine comes out. He pointed out that the medical system in El Paso, Texas and other places has been overwhelmed, local officials have closed some enterprises, and the federal government is mobilizing resources to cope with the surge in the death toll in COVID-19.

Since mid-September, the rising trend of new COVID-19 cases in the United States has entered the ninth week, which is longer than the rising cycle from March to April in the northeast and from June to July in the sunshine zone, and shows no signs of relief.

On Tuesday, mas que 1,400 deaths occurred in COVID-19, the highest in a single day since mid-August, which is a severe indicator of the accelerated spread of SARS-CoV-2 in the United States.
