During a Fox Business Network interview, Biden COVID-19 Advisory Board member Dr. Celine Gounder said we need to target “places that we know are big contributors to transmission are indoor restaurants, bars, gyms, and also private social gatherings of friends and family in the home” for closures. On the plus side, she is suggesting this as an alternative to shutting down the whole country. She also said the “draconian lockdowns” the country did earlier were a mistake. Instead, the country should,
“be much more targeted about how we tighten up some of our measures. I think of it like a dimmer switch, whereas before we had an on and off light switch. So, we can dial up and dial down in a much more granular fashion. So, some of the places that we know are big contributors to transmission are indoor restaurants, bars, gyms, and also private social gatherings of friends and family in the home. So, those are really the places we need to target for closures while keeping other services, for example, schools that are — have not been major contributors to transmission, they’re not zero-risk, but they are much lower risk, and they’re an essential service. And so, we’re really prioritizing keeping schools, for example, open.”
It's not shutdown, it's a "dimmer switch" on your lives! Biden COVID-19 Advisory Board member Dr. Celine Gounder: "Think of it like a dimmer switch, whereas before we had an on and off light switch. So, we can dial up and dial down in a much more granular fashion."

This is our future. A "dimmer switch" on our freedoms. But don't worry, it will be in a "granular fashion" by Team Biden.
They won't call it a lockdown. Some governors are calling them temporary "a freeze".And now we have just a "dimmer switch" on our freedom from Biden's team.

And Oregon announces a “freeze”! Not a lockdown, totally different. https://t.co/NMMnALOZgM
