#Joe Biden just announced a series of mandates making the Coronavirus vaccine compulsory for around 100 million Americans, about two-thirds of the total workforce. Any federal worker, or person in a company employing more than 100 people will be obliged to be vaccinated, or face unemployment. The US President presented this new measure as a response to the anti-vaxx movement, with support from politicians and much of the population… "Many of us are frustrated with the nearly 80 million Americans who are still not vaccinated even though the vaccine is known to be safe, effective and free..." stated the President, "we have the tools to combat Covid-19, and [they] are preventing us from turning the corner."
