joe Biden says he would shut down US to stop coronavirus if scientists recommended it

CNN  

CNN — Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden said, if elected, he would be willing to shut down the country again should there be a second wave of coronavirus in the US and scientists recommend the move to slow its spread. I would listen to the scientists,” the former vice president told ABC News’ David Muir during a joint interview with his running mate Sen. Kamala Harris set to air in full Sunday night. “You have to deal with the virus.” On Saturday evening, Trump responded on Twitter and mischaracterized Biden’s remarks, not mentioning Biden’s qualification that he would shut down the country if scientists made the recommendation. “Despite biggest ever job gains and a V shaped recovery, Joe Biden said, ‘I would shut it down’, referring to our Country. Trump responded to Biden’s proposals by accusing him of rejecting a “scientific approach in favor of locking all Americans in their basements for months on end.” “At every turn, Biden has been wrong about the virus, ignoring the scientific evidence and putting left-wing politics before facts and evidence,” Trump told reporters at the White House last week.
