Fox News Dr. Zeke Emanuel, an adviser to Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden on the coronavirus, said this week that Americans could be dealing with strict social distancing measures to combat the coronavirus for 18 months and that the U.S. “will not be able to return to normalcy until we find a vaccine or effective medications.”
Emanuel, one of the architects of the Affordable Care Act, also known as ObamaCare, is on the Biden campaign’s “Public Health Advisory Committee,” which is set up to “provide science-based, expert advice regarding steps the campaign should take to minimize health risks for the candidate, staff, and supporters,” according to a March press release.
His comments are partially consistent with statements from the Trump administration’s medical advisors and federal government documents on the pandemic. But they seem to paint a more grim picture of the country’s ability to roll back shutdowns of businesses and public life in general that are aimed at reducing the spread of the virus, which causes the disease known as COVID-19.
