Speaking in Delaware, Joe Biden says, “Our darkest days, in the battle against COVID, are ahead of us, not behind us.”
Joe Biden says, “Here is the simple truth. Our darkest days in the battle against Covid are ahead of us, not behind us. So we need to prepare ourselves. To steel our spines. As frustrating as it is to hear, it’s gonna take patience, persistence, and determination to beat this virus.”
Biden says he usually has 20-25 people at Christmas dinner, but not this year. He says, “We all have to care enough for each other that we have to stay apart, just a little bit longer. I know it’s hard.” He warns “experts say things are going to get worse before they get better.”
Biden says again that the Covid relief deal is good news, but repeats it’s just a “first step” and “down payment.” He says he’ll put forward a plan to Congress “early next year,” seeking more funds for testing, vaccine distribution, struggling people, local police, fire, nurses.
