A Complete Guide to Biden’s COVID-19 Plan
Here is Biden’s new six-pronged strategy to deal with the virus.
--
The Covid situation in the United States is more serious than ever, with 1,500 deaths a day and an average of 150,000 new cases every day. With more than 100,000 Americans hospitalized, the underestimated death toll has already exceeded 650000. It seems certain that it will surpass the total death toll from the 1918 influenza pandemic and far exceed all American conflicts except the Civil War.
President Joe Biden (Joe Biden) outlined a new Covid strategy on Thursday, expressing almost anger at the unvaccinated. He said: “We’ve been patient, but our patience is wearing thin, and your refusal has cost all of us,”.
The White House announced the latest set of guidelines that will require most federal employees to be vaccinated against COVID19 and urge large employers to vaccinate or test their employees every week, thereby making vaccine resistance a goal in the United States. The new measures are set to affect about two-thirds of all employees, or about 80 million Americans.
Here is Biden’s new six-pronged strategy to deal with the virus.
1. Vaccinating the unvaccinated with mandates for workers, public and private.
· President will implement a rule that will require all employers with 100+ employees to ensure their workers are vaccinated or tested weekly
· All federal workers and millions of contractors that do business with the Federal Government will have to get vaccinated under an Executive Order.
· Over 17 million health care workers at Medicare and Medicaid participating hospitals and other health care settings will require COVID-19 vaccinations.
· Large entertainment venues will now be requiring their patrons to present a proof of vaccination or provide testing before entry.
· A new rule will require employers with more than 100 employees to provide paid time off for the time it takes for workers to get vaccinated or to recover if they are under the weather post-vaccination.
