Joseph Biden actually said...
I think it`s a big mistake. Look, I hope everybody has realized by now these masks make a difference. We are on the cusp of being able to fundamentally change the nature of this disease because of the way in which we`re able to get vaccines in people`s arms. We have been able to move it up to end of May to have enough to get every adult American a shot. And the last thing, the last thing we need is Neanderthal thinking that everything is fine, take off your mask, forget it. We won`t have everybody vaccinated until sometime in the summer. We have the vaccine to do it, get the shot and second shot, they`re going to take time. And it`s critical, critical, critical, critical that they follow the science, wash your hands, hot water, do it frequently. Wear a mask, and stay socially distanced. And I know you all know that. I wish the heck some of our elected officials knew it.
