We are only three days into this new era and the recently inaugurated president s hand is on fucking fire. President Biden has already signed over two dozen executive actions and proclamations, largely undoing many of Trump s most destructive policies.
In his first week in office, Biden s orders primarily focused on bolstering the federal government s coronavirus response, reversing Trump s ass-backward environmental rollbacks, halting paranoid immigration policies, and attempting to provide a wee bit of economic relief. These executive actions can be pretty dry, so we re hoping to make this a little fun for you.
IV. Record Thine COVID Data
Executive Order on Ensuring a Data-Driven Response to COVID-19 and Future High-Consequence Public Health Threats
This order is all about data. While it doesn’t go into much detail, it does stress the president’s desire to enhance data collection around the virus presumably infections, contact tracing, and the like. It calls for a “stronger public health infrastructure” to help “prevent, detect, and respond to future biological threats” but does not outline what that means.
It’s possible that under this order the federal government may explore a digital tracking system or even a national database to aid in what it calls “collaboration capabilities.”
