White House embarks on push to vaccinate hard-to-reach Americans
| The White House is stepping up its vaccination push amid an encouraging decline in COVID-19 cases but during a time in which the remaining contingent of unvaccinated people are becoming harder to reach.
President Biden announced a slew of new partnerships this week, from free beer to free child care, as incentives to boost falling vaccination numbers one month out from a July 4th deadline for getting 70 percent of the country’s adult population at least partially vaccinated. Vice President Harris will also be traveling the country to encourage vaccinations, a tour the White House said will be focused on the south, where vaccination rates are generally lower. |
