While Harris and other lawmakers who may join her in the Biden administration may have access to intelligence products that could prove useful, that will not address the problem of the transition team not having access to departments and agencies, or to key parts of the current administration’s coronavirus response.
“More people may die if we don’t coordinate,” Biden said.
Monday’s announcement that Moderna’s coronavirus vaccine was 94.5-percent effective in clinical trials was good news, but the president-elect echoed experts who pointed to the distribution challenges for vaccines developed by both Moderna and Pfizer.
“How do we get over 300 million Americans vaccinated? What’s the game plan? It’s a huge, huge, huge undertaking to get it done, prioritize those in greatest need, and working our way through it and also cooperate with the World Health Organization and the rest of the world in dealing with this,” Biden said Monday.
Regarding that, Biden warned that his administration could start off behind the curve if officials are not able to get access to the details of the Trump administration’s development and distribution plans.
