On Monday, the next president of the United States, Joe Biden, warned of the serious consequences if he does not have access to information about the efforts against the covid-19 pandemic.
More may die if we don’t coordinate, Biden said when asked by the press what the consequences for the corona pandemic could be if Trump continues to block a normal transfer of power.
Biden particularly highlighted the distribution of the corona vaccine.
– If we have to wait to coordinate the distribution until January 20, it can have very serious consequences.
On Tuesday, NBC News reports that leading doctors, nurses and hospital groups are urging Trump to share COVID-19 data with Biden’s transition team “as soon as possible” to “save countless lives.”
In a letter, the directors of the American Hospital Association, the American Medical Association and the American Nurses Association urge the Trump administration to “work closely with the Biden team to share all important information related to COVID-19. 19 “.
And they mention a lot: real-time data, information on treatments, testing supplies, personal protective equipment, ventilators, hospital bed capacity, and workforce availability, to name a few.
This is knowledge that must be shared “to save countless lives,” the letter says.
The initiators refer to themselves as “providers of care for all Americans” who “see the suffering arising in our societies due to COVID-19.”
Fauci warns
“We see families who have lost both parents to covid-19, we see children suffering the long-term effects of the coronavirus disease, and we see minority populations suffering disproportionately during the devastating pandemic,” he says.
US infection control adviser Anthony Fauci also warns that Donald Trump’s reluctance to carry out the transfer of power to Joe Biden will create problems, NTB writes.
So far, Fauci has not been in contact with the incoming president, and the infection control expert does not hide the fact that the challenges that characterize the transfer of power may mean more crown problems.
“If you don’t have an orderly transfer of power, you can’t optimize the efforts that are being made now,” Fauci told CNN.
Fauci believes that the important topics of discussion during the transfer of power are the size of the medical equipment stock, including protective equipment, and how the vaccine program itself should work.
