On the most recent broadcast of 60 Minutes with Scott Pelley, President Joe Biden announced the COVID-19 outbreak to be over. The pandemic, which has claimed more than 1 million lives in America, has been going on for more than two years.
The pandemic has ended, Biden said. “COVID is still a concern for us. We’re still working really hard on it. the plague has ended, though. No one is concealing themselves, if you observe. Everyone seemed to be in generally good health. Therefore, I believe it is altering. And this, in my opinion, is the ideal illustration.
One week after Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director-general of the World Health Organization, declared that the pandemic’s conclusion was “in sight,” Biden made his remarks.
According to Ghebreyesus, “Last week, the number of weekly reported deaths from Covid-19 was the lowest since March 2020.” “We are now in a stronger position than ever to stop the pandemic. Although the conclusion is not in sight just yet, it is close.
According to data from Johns Hopkins University, there have been about 65,000 new COVID-19 cases recorded daily during the past two weeks. A little over 400 people pass away from the illness every day.
Regarding 2024, Biden added that he isn’t certain if he will run for office again: “Look, my intention, as I said to begin with, is that I would run again. However, it’s only an intention. But have you really decided that I should run again? That is still up in the air.
