Biden rolls out plan to combat coronavirus (The Biden Plan!)
The Hill ^ | 03 12 2020 | Julia Manchester

Posted on 03/12/2020 11:43:30 AM PDT by yesthatjallen

Former Vice President Joe Biden rolled out his plan to combat the coronavirus, also know as COVID-19, on Thursday as the virus rapidly spreads throughout the United States.

Biden's plan calls for a number of measures, including the establishment of an effective national response to the virus through making testing free and widely available, as well as the establishment of ten mobile sites and drive-through facilities per state.

The former vice president also called on greater transparency from the White House in terms of how many individuals have been tested.

The plan also called for an economic response to the outbreak, which includes emergency paid leave for all those affected by the outbreak. The response would also work to aid workers, families, and small businesses impacted by the outbreak.

Biden announced the plan during an address in Wilmington, Del., less than 24 hours after President Trump addressed the nation about the outbreak.

I guarantee Biden has never read this plan and doesn’t even know “he” has put it forth.

joe knows it’s bull$hit. The reason he’s saying it, is that IF THERE ARE A LOT OF DEATHS, they will blame Trump and say that biden’s “plan” would have avoided the deaths. And the media will broadcast the lies 24/7.

No matter what happens, they will blame Trump. They brought GWBush down with their katrina $hit. They want to do the same with Trump/Coronavirus.

If 100 die, they will say that it would have been 50 under biden’s plan. If there are more deaths in Puerto Rico, or Harlem, they will call Trump racist.

If Trump blocks travel to/from Africa, they will call him racist. It he doesn’t, they will blame him for the deaths.

(Creative skatalogical imprecations directed at the media.)

Fox News was covering his announcement live. He was trying to appear “Presidential” and of course attacked Trump, so I can understand why Fox carried him in full. At least I assume they did so...after a minute or two that was as much as I could stand. Fortunately there was a spring training game on.

I totally agree. He doesn't even know what day it is. He just wants to go out and pick fights with people that disagree with him.

Does Confused Joe realize that most testing is done by State Health Departments, not the Federal Government?

Biden, and many other Democrats, want State Health Departments to be simply provincial offices of a central totalitarian government.

The danger is the Virus could delay Joe in Curing Cancer.

Biden doesn’t know if Tuesdays come in twos or happen once a week.

“I heard that testing had to be done by the cdc? Is that not true? Are there states that are doing a good job testing?”

lots of orgs are now doing the testing, including states, some counties, and big private labs like Quest and LabCorp ... of course, with almost all medical testing, you need a doctor’s order for the test ...

A "me too!" moment of trying to get in on the action, peel off some attention to himself.

All those years in government and he doesn’t know the role of the CDC?
They’re crying Trump should have done more. But can you imagine Trump shutting down this country while the Dems were in the middle of an Impeachment?
