And you think Biden does? I don't want to go political in this thread, but over the decades, I haven't seen much of anything out of Biden. He wasn't known as Senator Gaffe for his great political skill.
I think Biden would assemble a better group of advisors don't you ?
oh I'm planning on it now, we're going to bail out by the end of the weekend. God forbid anyone needs to go to the hospital for a non-corona illness, you will be SOL for the next month
That's what the Hospital Ship is for. Any medical issues OTHER than Coronavirus you head there beginning on Tuesday at Pier 90.
Have faith and be optimistic. What will come will come.
COVID19 came precisely because we had faith, were optimistic in our government's ability to handle and now people are dropping like flies. Yes it definitely came.
Probably very similar. Fauci seems to be the chief medical advisor at this point. He's been the guy for every big disease outbreak since AIDS. I don't know who Biden would appoint to to the Fed, but I'd bet they'd be doing the same things economically.
Would Biden have gone to national lockdown? I don't know if the president even has the legal power to do that. And Biden is a politician, until things get really bad, that's not a smart political move.

Trump said a "Limited Order". That is not a total lock down. Doomsday people.
Just take a moment to look back in (the very short time) of recent events, how they weren't going to do this or that, and the next day they did it. At every level of government. I don't trust any of them anymore, not because they're dishonest (which many/most are) but because this situation has gotten so big and out of control that they have no idea what they're going to do and every word out of their mouth right now is being used to maintain control of the population so people don't completely panic. This is just like week 1.X of 5+ weeks of hell coming up and there will be panic I promise you. I'm not sticking around to be proven right or wrong there is no reason to stay in NYC there's nothing here left right now except confinement.
There's still the chance that other parts of the country aren't hit nearly as severely as NYC and its surrounding areas. California put the whole state on lockdown fairly early on, and the vast majority of their population centers are well within their state lines, so it's possible it won't be hit so badly. It's also possible that general US habits of heavy suburbanization might play a role in limiting the speed and extent of the spread in the rest of the US. I don't think that's super likely, but it's still possible.
If their health care system isn't prepared it could be disastrous in rural areas with less resources and fewer tax payers or rich residents to leverage for donations.

Thanks in part to not locking down the city ASAP and not providing face gear to every citizen.
Yep. Even telling us there's no need to wear them. Have never seen any cops wear them but...today passing the precinct, they all had them on!
