President-Elect Joe Biden has taken to Twitter to issue an urgent coronavirus warning to Donald Trump.
Biden called for immediate action after COVD-19 cases continue to soar across the country.
‘I am alarmed by the surge in reported COVID-19 infections, hospitalizations, and fatalities,’ Biden said in a tweet Friday night.
‘This crisis demands a robust and immediate federal response which has been woefully lacking.
I am the president-elect, but will not be president until next year,’
‘COVID-19 does not respect dates on the calendar, it is accelerating right now. Urgent action is needed today, now, by the current administration.’

‘Ideally, we won’t go to a lockdown. I will not go, this administration will not be going to a lockdown,’ he said.
‘Hopefully the, the – uh – whatever happens in the future – who knows which administration will be. I guess time will tell.’
