Wayne Dupree Show: Biden wants his 81 million voters to skip DC inaugural over Covid-19

Inauguration planners for President-elect Joe Biden said Tuesday the festivities will be heavily pared down and urged supporters not to come to the White House to prevent the spread of Covid-19.

“The pandemic is continuing to have a significant public health impact across the nation," Dr. David Kessler, a former Food and Drug Administration commissioner, and newly appointed chief medical adviser for the inauguration, said in a statement. "We are asking Americans to participate in inaugural events from home to protect themselves, their families, friends, and communities.”
