(Bloomberg) -- President Joe Biden’s team is increasingly worried the coronavirus pandemic is spiraling out of control -- imperiling his promise to contain the outbreak -- as cases and deaths mount, vaccinations lag and a more-transmissible strain emerges in the U.S., according to people familiar with the matter.
As they learned more about the federal response to the pandemic, Biden’s transition team grew alarmed at a lack of coordination with states, the people said. Biden himself has warned of a “dark winter” and has flatly said the pandemic will worsen before it improves.
The stakes are escalating. U.S. hospitalizations are at near-record levels, and daily cases and deaths have doubled since Election Day on Nov. 3.
While blame has fallen on the Trump administration for its failure to develop a national testing or vaccination strategy or encourage widespread mask-wearing, Biden’s team -- which keeps adding new experts -- now inherits the job of containing the pandemic.

Update: "Perfect Storm...Not Of Our Doing" - Fauci-Led Biden Team Suddenly Stunned By Virus Surge Created By Fauci-Led Trump Team (Zero Hedge)
WNU Editor: Anyone who has been following this blog for the past year know that the surge of cases and the development of new variants is not a surprise. We are in a pandemic, and by its nature certain pandemics like this one are deadly and next to impossible to control and defeat. But with time and vaccines it will be conquered. But before that happens what we are seeing right now from President Joe Biden’s team is classic CYA (cover your ass). And here is an easy prediction. If this really gets out of control with infections and deaths exploding. They and their media supporters will blame Trump.
Update: Yup. The excuses are starting on Day One!!!!! (see below).
With the excuses on day 1! wow
