	Description:		Joe Biden will inherit a public health crisis beyond any US President's experience when he takes office on January 20th. At the moment, there are up to 180,000 new COVID-19 infections recorded every day, and many ICUs and morgues are overwhelmed. Holiday season, starting with Thanksgiving, is about to pour fuel on that fire, with very few restrictions on movement being enforced. So in the dying days of the Trump presidency, how bad could the pandemic get? And what can Joe Biden realistically do to turn it around?
