Dozens of COVID-19 cases have been reported at two veterans care centers in Virginia.

The Sitter & Barfoot Veterans Care Center in Richmond has 49 cases impacting 39 residents and 10 staff, the Virginia Department of Veterans Services said Friday.

The Virginia Veterans Care Center in Roanoke has 62 COVID-19 cases among 43 residents and 19 staff, the department said.

"The residents are on separate wings at the veterans care centers to isolate them from other residents, while the employees are at home in self-isolation and under the care of their personal health care provider," the Department of Veterans Services said in a statement. "Residents, family members, and staff have been notified of the positive cases."

The problems will still be here but Biden will care enough to do something about them.

They will be very tough and slow to deal with and the right wing will whine that it is too slow.

Just like Obama had to clean up the mess when Dubya left the economy in ruins and the right wing complained that it was too slow.

Especially when the GOP was working against Obama.

Does anyone think the GOP will work with Biden for our country or will they work against him for their own agenda.

we have been told and we finally get the truth. It's why drumpf is after every dime now while he can and his coterie can steal it all, leaving us with absolutely nothing for clean up/clear up.

Arrest them all and get the money back, on-shore if need be.
