Biden Touts 50M Vax Shots, Urges Continued Caution

The Washington Post reports:

President Biden commemorated the 50 millionth coronavirus vaccination shot in the United States with an event at the White House in which several people were vaccinated as Vice President Harris and Anthony S. Fauci, the nation’s leading infectious-disease expert, looked on. But he also cautioned against complacency, urging Americans not to let down their guards.
