"Biden will sign an order ramping up supplies for vaccination, testing and personal protective equipment and another boosting development of therapeutics to treat Covid-19.
Following through on his campaign proposals, Biden will sign two executive orders creating a National Pandemic Testing Board to improve US coronavirus testing capacity and a Covid-19 Health Equity Task Force to ensure an "equitable" pandemic response and recovery.
Another executive order will enhance the nation's collection, production, sharing and analysis of data about the virus.
He will direct the Federal Emergency Management Agency to offer full reimbursement to states for the cost of National Guard personnel and emergency supplies such as PPE for schools.


Biden will direct the Department of Education and Department of Health and Human Services to provide guidance for safe reopening and operating of schools, childcare providers, and institutions of higher education.

He will issue an executive order calling on the Occupational Safety and Health Administration to release clear guidance on Covid-19, decide whether to establish emergency temporary standards, and directs OSHA to enforce worker health and safety requirements."

An Executive Order is just piece of paper with a bunch of lines on it unless the Administration acts, but if Biden and Co. follow through we could see our country returning back to normal without another full year of running at 50% or less.  

  

Nothing Biden has proposed will make one bit of difference. The companies are producing doses of the vaccine as fast as possible and the idea that more testing leads to lower infection rates or fewer deaths is wishful thinking.

It is important that people with symptoms are able to get tested and that labs are not so overwhelmed with useless tests that results are delayed. The focus on testing should be on accuracy and turnaround time for those who have symptoms that may be caused by COVID-19.

It's about time a Grown Up takes charge this has been ignored for almost a year 410,000 Americans dead 
I don't think the kids who WAS in charged didn't have no plan except ignore it hope it would go away

Explain what Biden is proposing that will impact infection rates or deaths. His mask mandate is a joke. Trump was already requiring masks in cases where social distancing could not be maintained in federal buildings. Now, Biden is going to require us to wear a mask if we are the only person inside of a federal building. There is absolutely no reason to require people who are separated by more than 6 feet or separated by partitions to wear masks while seated at their desks.
