“Just to keep the mask for 100 days, not forever. 100 days. And I think we’ll make a significant reduction,” Byden said on the app during his first joint meeting with Vice-President-elect Kamala Harris after winning the election. The full interview will air at 9 p.m.
Biden also said he has asked Dr. Anthony Fawcett to be part of the chief medical adviser and his Covid-19 response team when his administration begins next year.
The conversation took place on Thursday afternoon, Biden said. CNN reported earlier in the day that Fassie had a planned meeting with Biden’s transition team, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and a member of President Donald Trump’s coronavirus task force.
“I asked him to stay in the same role he had played for the last few presidents and I asked him to be the chief medical adviser for me and to be part of the Covid team,” Biden told TT.
Biden added that Ron Klein, his incoming chief of staff, knew Fausy well and talked to him “all the time.”
Biden and Trump have long taken a different approach to the virus, which is the point of defining the presidential election. Trump has fought many coronavirus recommendations regarding wearing masks imposed by his own administration, while Biden strictly adheres to coronavirus guidelines during the campaign.
The fight against Trump’s coronavirus recommendations often puts him at odds with one of the most vocal members of Trump’s task force. Those struggles have drawn the attention of Trump Sisi, who is often seen as a left-wing hero for his commitment to science in the face of Trump’s comments, and especially among Trump loyalists.
Biden told Americans his coronavirus plans that the vaccine was safe and would control the spread of the virus without stopping its interpretation as a balance between the establishment of several plans.
Biden also said in an interview that once Fossie says he is safe and will get the vaccine in public to show confidence, he will be “happy” to get the coronavirus vaccine.
Biden said, “This is the moment in which I will be in front of people and get vaccinated.” “People have lost faith in the vaccine’s ability to function. Already the numbers are surprisingly low, and what the president and vice president do is important.”
“I think my three predecessors set the model on what to do, once it’s declared safe … then clearly we take it and it’s important to communicate with the American people,” Biden said.
“I’m concerned about what kind of example it sets for me and how it sees us as a nation of laws and justice in the rest of the world,” Biden said, adding that his Department of Justice would “work independently on those issues.” And how to respond to any Trump apology.
“I’m not going to tell them what to say and what not to do,” Biden said. “I wouldn’t say ‘run a case on A, B or C, I wouldn’t say that. It’s not a role, it’s not my justice department, it’s the people’s justice department. So the individuals or the person I choose to run that department. Those people will be the ones who will have the independent ability to decide who is being prosecuted, who is not. “
Biden concluded that his administration would not approach amnesty like Trump, adding that “this is a very different way of approaching the justice system.”
Biden still has a choice of attorney general, but is considering a range of names, including former deputy attorney general Sally Yates; DJ Jones, soon to become a former Alabama senator, was defeated in November; And Jah Johnson, Secretary of Homeland Security under Oh Obama; Among others.
Harris echoed the sentiment of Biden’s comments on the Justice Department.
“We’re not going to tell the Justice Department how to do their job,” Harris said. “And we’re assuming, and I’m saying this as an elected former attorney general in California … that any decision that comes out of the Department of Justice … should be based on facts, it should be based on law, it should be influenced by the period of politics. No “
Biden fell between: “And I guarantee you, it will work this way.”
