Reuters: Biden zeroes in on Delta variant as U.S. nears 160 mln fully vaccinated against COVID-19
U.S. President Joe Biden on Tuesday encouraged Americans who have not yet been vaccinated against COVID-19 to get their shots to protect themselves from the widely-spreading, highly contagious Delta variant of the coronavirus.
Today the President wrote, “We’re closer than ever to declaring our independence from COVID-19, but the fight is not over yet. Powerful strains like the Delta variant have emerged. The best defense against these deadly variants is simple: get vaccinated.”
President Biden urges Americans to get vaccinated against COVID: "Think about where you were last year, where you are today. What you were able to do last year at this time and do today. It's a year of hard-fought progress. We can't get complacent now." https://t.co/bie1hpHXA9 pic.twitter.com/QEaQvYJEQw
