Pres. Biden's address will signal a new phase in the pandemic. It also will be a tacit acknowledgement that the virus, at any moment, could come roaring back to life.

Instead, a White House official described the president's speech as noting the nation is now able to"move forward safely in a way in which COVID no longer disrupts our lives the way it has previously." That the nation is"moving forward safely" probably isn't the bumper sticker slogan Democrats were hoping for in a midterm election year. But it's also a much more honest assessment of a virus that's still widely circulating globally and which has killed at least 945,688 Americans despite aggressive efforts to contain its spread.
Accordingly, the White House has been revising its COVID strategy and meeting privately with some of the nation's top pandemic experts to consider paths the virus might take.
