CORONAVIRUS/COVID-19/JOE BIDEN: “Every morning I start off like I did this morning, with leading medical advisors for an hour, an hour and a half briefing on the state of the coronavirus in the United States. And guess what? Nursing homes and meat packing plants, are the most dangerous places there are right now. That’s not up for debate. Thousands of infections have been traced back to meat packing plants and at least 30 workers have died from it. They designate them as essential workers, then treat them as disposable. It’s quite frankly inhumane and downright immoral because these workers are essential to our society. Not just in times of crisis, but always.”
