Biden's coronavirus health adviser is a prop

If President-elect Joe Biden is paying his coronavirus adviser anything, he should try getting a refund. Michael Osterholm doesn’t seem to know much more about the pandemic than the average cable news anchor, and that kind of knowledge is basically free of charge.

Biden’s frontman on the pandemic was asked Tuesday on CNN about the new variants of the coronavirus that have popped up around the world. His thoughts more or less mirrored the same talking points put out by the Democratic National Committee: There needs to be a “national response” and “everything needs to be on the table right now.”
