Read our privacy policy President-elect Joe Biden is set to outline his plans to revive the nation's economy in the midst of a global health crisis on Monday as he pushes forward with his transition to the White House despite President Donald Trump s refusal to accept the election results. “It will mostly be work of a different kind — of governing, of building and working to lift our nation, our economy our communities, and each other back to where we were before this pandemic, and beyond.” Biden, a Democrat, has vowed to spend trillions of dollars to reinvigorate U.S. manufacturing, expand health care coverage and combat climate change, among other priorities. Speaking Monday on “CBS This Morning,” Osterholm was not asked about a potential lockdown, but he said the nation needs “a standard set of principles.” “Right now, we don’t have a standardized set so you’re hearing all these governors and mayors are scrambling to try to find what is the right answer for us, and it would surely help all of them, and that’s what I’m hearing from them, that we have a standardized set of recommendations and protocols,” he said. Our experts need to talk to those people as soon as possible so nothing drops in this change of power we’re going to have on Jan. 20.” Before his Monday remarks, Biden and Harris were holding virtual meetings with AFL-CIO President Richard Trumka, General Motors CEO Mary Barra and Microsoft President and CEO Satya Nadella, among others.
