Despite delays in trials and no tangible vaccine in final stages of development in the U.S., Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden's coronavirus adviser Dr. Vivek Murthy says the candidate has "already started" work on his plan for expanding testing, building contact tracing capacity and distributing a vaccine.(Tweets) Murthy, who served as Surgeon General during the Obama administration, told "Face the Nation" moderator Margaret Brennan in an interview on Friday that should Biden become president, adequate distribution of a vaccine would be vital to "re-building public trust in the COVID-19 response" "It will mean putting in place the strategy and resources necessary to reopen schools and workplaces.

I guess they are getting carbon copies of President's Trumps plan and because Dimocraps don't make plans to help citizens.

I’ve already started a shopping list of the many nice items I’ve wanted all my life, because I’m certain that I will win a very big lottery very soon.

Bidengaffe can't even formulate a dinner plan, but we're to believe he's come up with this detailed plan? He can't even read his teleprompter.

Biden finished his plan yesterday. Unfortunately he can't remember what is or where he put it.

Between Clintoon and Zippy, it's like we staffed the United States Government with characters from Mad Magazine.

If the plan is so great, why not share it with the CDC? Start helping people now. Oh, it is a political ploy as usual. Promises made; promises broken. Lies and more lies. I am so tired of the politicization of the virus. Lives matter. It could mean life or death for America. Why wait!!!!!

The lefts talking points are that Trumps rush to develop a vaccine will be dangerous to public heath? So, what now is Biden's plan?

Where does Biden get the authority to do this? Who in the government is cooperating with him on this issue and why? Why would they throw their weight and expertise in his direction instead of with the president's? Something is wrong about this announcement.

In their dreams. They have NO power, NO ability to do anything of significance. This is just BS, fanciful and false.

Oh, I just bet Biden's team is all over contact tracing. And all the power trips that go with it. Brown shirts, anyone? Don't want to cooperate? They will have a nice barb-wired "camp" for you to remain quarantined (for your own safety, of course) and be re-educated in the ways of the Global Elite.

Of course the Dems will call off the dogs and "reopen schools and workplaces" provided the sheeple do their bidding and vote for Grandpa Badfinger. The chief of the Los Angeles Health Department told local schools that they could reopen "after the election." They're not even trying to hide their perfidity - this is naked extortion of the American public by a power-mad syndicate willing to do anything at all to oust the Orange Man Bad who has thwarted their plans.

Gosh folks, this sounds like Joe-planning. You don't suppose it might be nice to have a vaccine first ? Will Mattressback go on CNN to take the first shot ? Yeh, saline.

I wonder if it will be get vaccinated or else situation. How's he going to distribute the vaccine, just says he has plans to distribute the vaccine. Trump's crew says it will take a lot of planes to deliver the vaccine, if I remember right it was 8,000. I don't believe anything Biden says because he will flip over faster than one can flip a pancake. Tracking contact means there will be a computer program and they will be able to track anyone anywhere in the world that that equipment as it will most likely be connected to a satellite.

One problem, Sleepy Uncle Joe.
We don't have a vaccine yet.
And anyway, President Trump is already on all of it. Go back to your basement.

Agree w #10.
Sounds a bit like the Shadow Government we’ve heard about.
Sleepy Gropey has no authority. Except in Jill’s mind maybe.
Or Camel Toe’s.

Sure he is. Joe has a difficult time making toast and coffee in the morning let alone putting together a massive logistics and planning plan for global vaccine distribution.

Of course he is developing a plan ... in his basement ... just as soon as he gets a detailed copy of Trump’s plans to plagiarize ... and then excoriate Trump for having a terrible plan. The dude is all over the place, wandering from topic to topic.

Can't wait for him to answer a question about this at the first debate - without "help" from his trusty teleprompter.

Just a technical point. When you have a relatively small number of Covid-19 cases. contact tracing can help in getting ahead of the expansion of infection by identifying those that may have been infected and isolating them. When you have many thousands of Covid-19 cases the possible paths of infection grows exponentially, making it impossible to get ahead of the expansion, rendering contact tracing worthless. Since we do not have an approved vaccine yet, all efforts should be directed toward treatments that reduce the death rate.
Building supplies of the most promising vaccines now, instead of waiting until they are approved, will have the vaccine ready for deployment. This is what President Trump is doing now. It is amazing that Biden has not included this step in his plan.

I'm sorry, I get bad vibes about this vax push, no matter which side is advocating it. It will be just as divisive as the masques.
