My message to unvaccinated Americans is this: What more is there to wait for? What more do you need to see?
We have made the vaccinations free, safe, and convenient. The vaccine has FDA approval. Over 200 million Americans have gotten at least one shot.
Do the right thing.
I’m instructing the Department of Labor to require all employers with 100+ employees to ensure their workforce is fully vaccinated — or show a negative test at least once a week.
Some of the biggest companies have already required this: United, Disney, Tyson, and Fox News.
I am expanding vaccination requirements to cover those who work in hospitals, home health care facilities, and other medical facilities.
If you are seeking care at a health facility, you should know that the people treating you are vaccinated. Period.
Right now, local school officials are trying to keep children safe in a pandemic while their governor picks a fight with them and even threatens their salary and job.
If they will not help us beat the pandemic, I will use my powers as president to get them out of the way.
We will not sit by as Governors try to block or intimidate educators protecting kids against COVID-19.
This isn’t about politics. This is about keeping our kids safe and taking on this virus together.

I'm tired of Big Pharma's lies about why prescriptions are so expensive. The truth is they spend billions more on stock buybacks to enrich shareholders than they do on research. As I told @lawrence, I'm not afraid to call out this corporate greed.
Big Pharma says they need to charge astronomical prices to pay for research and development. Yet, the amount they spend on manipulating the market to enrich shareholders completely eclipses what's spent on R&D. Today, I confronted a CEO about the industry's lies, with visuals ⤵️

We should permanently normalize wearing a mask when you have a cold or the flu, in order not to infect other people. Japanese people do it. Why not us?
