He can't force states to do anything, that's up to the governors but it's nice to hear an even voice at the top backing the science.
And what exactly does "listen to the science" mean ? Please elaborate ? And how will it relate to helping cure and or contain a virus that currently has no cure.

GTHOH!!!!
The problem isn't freedom, it is those that choose to be irresponsible with their freedoms and it effects others' freedom that individual freedom becomes a problem. But you knew that already and just post ignorant replies.

I blame McConnell and I blame Trump. McConnell cannot even get Republicans to pass his counter-offer to Pelosi. Trump, he can't get McConnell to put the Heroes' Act on the floor and thinks that bill is wrong without putting forth any true counter-offer. If you hate the offer given, have a counter-offer. You'd think the author of The Art of the Deal would know that.

FYI, I know the Heroes' Act does have pork. The issue is, this plan has been DOA for months and Republicans in the Senate can't even agree when to set their watches to.

Don't gather in large groups, increased restrictions follow increases in infections, wear masks.

and what if that doesn't work? Will we then lockdown for another 4-6 weeks? Then another?
I have not read the whole thread, but I am wondering how many people have enough cash in reserve to buy six week's worth of groceries IF "lockdown" means no going out for any reason.

If we had a nation wide shelter in place after Xmas or in Feb covid would have been over. But president Joker decided to take his circus on the road and infect the whole country.

in short, he can't do much. Mask mandate will never fly legally. All we can do is hope to convince enough people to mask up. Only states can police things such as indoor gatherings. Sheltering in place is also only a state (or sometimes county level) order.

But at least Biden won't host superspreader events like Donnie. We have to fumble along like this until the operation warp speed delivers. Biden isn't changing that program one bit.
