Biden preaches concern, not panic on omicron
| President Biden on Tuesday sought to strike a balance between reassuring Americans about the coming wave of omicron infections, but also to once again try to persuade the public to take precautions.
During remarks at the White House, Biden outlined a plan to increase testing, speed up the vaccination campaign, and boost the capacity of hospitals that could be inundated in the coming weeks. He made it clear that although infections are rising, the nation is in a far different place than it was last year. |
