Dr. Anthony Fauci says the nation should consider a vaccination mandate for domestic air travel.
Dr. Ashish Jha, dean of the Brown School of Public Health, explains the CDC announcement on shorter isolation periods for some infected COVID-19 patients.
"Seeing how tough it was for some folks to get a test this weekend shows that we have more work to do," he said. He referenced his administration's plan to make 500 million rapid tests available to Americans beginning next month through an as-yet-to-be-developed website. Biden assured Hutchinson that the federal effort won't interfere with state actions."This gets solved at the state level," he said.
Pressed last week on why Biden had not mandated vaccinations for domestic air travel, White House press secretary Jen Psaki told MSNBC that"we know that masking can be, is, very effective on airplanes."
