Newsflash everybody! I got it first-hand from Dr. Cameron Webb, a member of the White House Task Force on Covid, that the pandemic is not over.
I knew that already because I monitor the news all the time, and from March 2020 until now, there’s been no official announcement from The White House, President Joe Biden, the Centers for Disease Control, (CDC) nor the World Health Organization (WHO), that has indicated the pandemic is over. It’s just that everyday people seem to think it’s over, and a ton of people act like the pandemic is over, but it is not.
Not bragging, just saying the SCOOP newspaper, thanks to our Publisher Sherri Darden, has a positive relationship with the White House media team, and we get some wonderful opportunities to interview people from the Biden administration regularly. I spoke at length with Dr. Cameron Webb the other day.
Dr. Webb serves on the White House COVID-19 Response Team as the Senior Policy Advisor for COVID-19 Equity. Here is some of what he shared about President Biden’s administration’s plans to get America through the next few months as we continue to have to address Covid concerns.
Dr. Webb said, “We looked back at the last few years, and it’s been clear that every winter, we get a surge in cases. The winter Covid-19 preparedness plan we have is really just a strategy for us to stay in front of the virus as much as we can and minimize its impact. We do that in a couple of ways. The first is prevention. We want everybody to be vaccinated. Everyone needs to have up-to-date vaccination status because that really helps to reduce the impact of the virus spreading. Hundreds of people are still dying every day from the virus. It just doesn’t get the same press (media attention) that it used to get. I think some people have become numb to those realities, and overwhelmingly it’s folks who are over the age of 65.”
