Visiting a school, Pres. Biden said some had been 'cavalier' with the health of kids.
The president’s plan requires vaccinations for all employees at businesses with over 100 staff as well as health care workers and federal government employees and contractors.
Reintroducing his six-part strategy to combat the pandemic, Biden focused his remarks at Brookland Middle School on how his approach will help keep schools safe, including requiring that 300,000 educators in federal Head Start programs be vaccinated and using the Defense Production Act to produce nearly 300 million rapid COVID-19 tests for distribution at the schools around the country.
"I'm going to get in trouble with the Secret Service and everybody else. I'm not sure how we're going to mechanically do it, but I assume the buses can get you to the White House and if we can't get you all in one room. We'll be out in the Rose Garden or out in the back there and maybe let you fly the helicopter," Biden said to laughter."I'm only joking about that.
