Biden readies campaign to combat vaccine skeptics

The White House is poised to launch a sweeping new campaign to reduce vaccine hesitancy as the Biden administration barrels ahead with plans to give every American access to Covid shots by May 1, according to three senior officials familiar with the matter.

The campaign, coordinated across the federal government’s health agencies, will focus on reaching Americans who are skeptical of signing up for a shot, or who do not know where to get it, and aims to combat misinformation about the vaccine’s efficacy and safety, sources said.

The rollout comes days after every living former president and first lady — with the exception of Donald and Melania Trump — appeared in a public service announcement urging Americans to get vaccinated.

The high-profile spot marked the kickoff of a large, more concerted effort to drive people to vaccination sites, and comes as the Biden administration continues to ramp up vaccine supply and rapidly expand the eligibility pool. The administration last week pledged $8 billion to states to help with vaccine administration and plans to double the amount of federal vaccine sites across the country with the deployment of an additional 4,000 troops. Plans for the latest campaign were first reported by STAT.

1. Good. We need an army of truth tellers

Is going to be an all-out war between us and the Russian trolls and right wing trolls

2. I think it'd hurry up the process of changing the minds of the anit-mask, anti-distancing,

anti-sanitizing and anti-vaccine crowd if we just started putting them all in jail. Since these
people are also typically insurrectionists it'd be a two-fer!
