EXCERPT:
BIDEN: "I would be prepared to do whatever it takes to save lives because we cannot get the country moving until we control the virus. That is the fundamental flaw of this administration's thinking to begin with. In order to keep the country running and moving and the economy growing and people employed, you have to fix the virus, you have to deal with the virus."
MUIR: "So, if the scientists say shut it down?"
BIDEN: "I would shut it down. I would listen to the scientists."
