On March 11, 2020, the Coronavirus was declared a pandemic.
“A year ago, we were hit with a virus that was met
with silence and spread unchecked. Denials for days, weeks, then months that
led to more deaths and more infections.” President Joe Biden said.
The total deaths of American people from the Coronavirus
is 527,726 people. More deaths than World War I and II, the Vietnam War and 9/11
combined.
President Biden talked about the division of states
and the American people because of this pandemic. Too often we’ve turned
against one another Biden said. Asian Americans have been harassed, attacked and
scapegoated, and this behavior toward them is wrong and unamerican Biden said,
and I completely agree with him.
Biden made it clear, all U.S. citizens, 18-years-old,
and older will be eligible to receive the Coronavirus vaccine by May 1, of this
year.
The American Rescue Plan, Biden signed into law not
only gets many American’s $1,400.00, but also aids many unemployed people, helps
small businesses, lowers health care premiums for many, and will cut child
poverty in half according to experts Biden said.
Biden again expressed sympathy for Coronavirus victims
and those close to the virus victims, something Trump never did.
