After a report by the US Department of Labor on Friday showed a significant slowdown in job market recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic in November, US President-elect Joe Biden warned of 'a very dark winter ahead' speaking from Wilmington.

"This is a dire jobs report," said Biden and added, "We head into a very dark winter ahead."

The president-elect also discussed the ongoing coronavirus pandemic after the US registered almost 3,000 coronavirus-related deaths on Friday.

"The fight against COVID won't be won by January, in January alone. To truly end this crisis, Congress is going to need to fund more testing, as well as a more equitable and free distribution of the vaccine. We're going to need more economic relief to bridge through 2021," said Biden

According to the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), COVID-19 "hospitalisation rates are the highest they have been since the beginning of the pandemic."
