“The news on the vaccine gives hope, but the battle is still long, a dark winter still awaits us with the risk of another 200 thousand deaths. This is why I invite you to wear a mask, which is not a political statement”: Joe Biden climbs with Kamala Harris on stage at the Queen Theater of her Wilmington after appointing her anti Covid task force and curbs the enthusiasm with which the stock exchanges and the world public opinion have welcomed Pfizer’s announcement on the success of its vaccine. A vaccine for which it calls for “a rigorous, science-driven and fully transparent approval process” so as not to undermine people’s trust. But, he warns, “even if it is approved, it will not be widely available for months” and measures against the virus must therefore be respected. “Last week – he recalled – we exceeded 120,000 cases in several days, infections are rising, along with hospitalizations and deaths. This pandemic is claiming nearly a thousand American lives a day, nearly 240,000 deaths so far, but projections indicate that we could lose another 200,000 lives in the next few months before the vaccine is available for everyone “, he warned on the day when the US exceeded 10 million cases. Then he explains that his task force will help implement the anti Covid plan from the first day of his inauguration, January 20: the objectives are “the increase of tests, the creation of an infection tracing system, the definition of lines clear guidance, the supply of resources to small businesses, schools and kindergartens to reopen safely “, waiting for a vaccine that will then be” distributed for free, starting from the population at risk “. Biden speeds up his agenda. The first move was the appointment of a task force of 13 doctors and scientists, which will be led by Vivek Murthy, former surgeon general (chief operating public health) under Barack Obama, Davide Kessler, former head of the Drug and Food Administration (Fda) and Marcella Nunez-Smith, professor of public health at Yale. The team also included two former exponents of the Trump administration: Luciana Borio, a Brazilian biodefence expert of Sicilian origins, and Rick Bright, the vaccine expert hunted after he denounced the White House pressure on hydroxychloroquine and its ineptitude in the fight against the pandemic. Meanwhile, Joe continues to work on the government team as well. He may soon announce some key positions in the White House, including the chief of staff.
