Sadly, because of President Trump's horrible response many are saying it will have run through much of the population by February.
That said, Biden strategy doesn't look like much either. Basically, it seems like the only thing that will help is multiple months of a closed economy except for groceries and health care needs until there is enough vaccine for all.
The only thing that Biden can do to get it under control is multiple-months of Wuhan and Melbourne style mitigation which means basically people going just for health care and grocery needs and a closed economy until they have nearly a billion doses of vaccine, because it will require more than one dose for herd immunity and shrinkage also.
Other than a handful of states, 80% or more of people have face coverings on their face. A national mask mandate is not going to effective if people aren't distancing and they are wearing them on their chins.
A majority of the country already can get a free COVID test.
Rapid tests are nice he never mentions how he ramp up production, to do much good one would have take a rapid test weekly.
But for most people, the covid illness is only be mild and brief. That very reason largely helps explain why so many people are not taking it any more seriously than the common cold.
Haven't looked too much into it. But I'm confident he's not gonna try to take center stage and contradict his health experts.
What can the "health experts" and "scientists" do except for the scientists working on a vaccine.
The only thing that can drive down cases is closing the economy except for health care needs and grocery needs which will never happen nationally. If they really wanted to drive down cases they would have to have multiple months of just going out for health care and groceries until there is enough vaccine to go around and even then there is a lag before people have protection against COVID.
Trump's COVID response has been terrible but Biden's doesn't look like much either just a public relations gimmick and little else.
A vast majority are wearing face coverings, but it's not he can likely implement a national fine for not wearing one and many, many are going to wear them on their chins.
Biden wears his mask on his chin much of the time.

This wave of COVID started in the colleges and other schools.
Many were talking about how less people were hospitalized in September despite increasing cases and that seems to be because the main population with COVID was college students.
Now, the amount of infectious individuals in many cities is to the extent that it is so widespread that the COVID ends up in the nursing homes no matter how much they test.
Many nursing homes have a huge staff with lots and lots of workers. When several percent of the population in a city has COVID it works it's way into the nursing homes because the staff get tested about once a week from articles I have read.
Many CNA's, LPN's, RN's are mothers with several children each also who have children in the schools and the children are asymptomatic and the mothers of those children are going to work in the nursing homes.
It’s running through all over Europe much worse than here and headed this way. They were praised for doing so much better than Trump. So what happened.
If that drooling imbecile's plan is to shut down the country again for a few months, that won't work. Fortunately DeSantis will never permit it here in Florida.
You champs can camp out in your basements forever as far as I'm concerned, only emerging for the occasional BLM riot or Biden party. The rest of us have work to do and lives to live.

It's been worse in Europe for a few months now. Of course nobody here knows that fact because the lying mainstream media was busy trying to elect Biden.
If I stated what I wanted to happen to the DNC activists posing as journalists, I'm sure I would get banned. They are evil, despicable human beings -- even worse than the Democrat politicians, if that's possible.
