Biden Demonizes Unvaccinated People: They âAre Sowing Enormous Confusion,â âNot Nearly As Smart As I Thoughtâ
President Joe Biden appeared to mock those who have not yet been vaccinated when asked a question on Tuesday afternoon by a reporter following remarks that he made to the Intelligence Community.
âWill you require all federal employees to get vaccinated?â the reporter asked.
âThatâs under consideration right now,â Biden responded, âbut if youâre not vaccinated, youâre not nearly as smart as I thought you were.â
âAre you concerned that the CDCâs new mask guidance could sow confusion?â the reporter pressed.
âWe have a pandemic because of the unvaccinated are sowing enormous confusion,â Biden answered. âAnd the more we learn, the more we learn about this virus in the Delta variation, the more we have to be worried and concerned. And only one thing we know for sure, if those other 100 million people got vaccinated, weâd be in a very different world. So get vaccinated, if you havenât, youâre not nearly as smart as I say you are.â
Biden released the following statement earlier in the day about the CDCâs new pandemic guidance:
When I ran for President, I promised to be straight with you about COVIDâgood news or bad. And I promised to follow the science. That strategy has worked: in my first six months in office, weâve given out over 300 million shotsâand have 60% of adults fully vaccinated and nearly 70% started on vaccinations. Cases are down, and deaths are down dramatically. One estimate suggests that our rapid deployment of the vaccine has saved 100,000 American livesâperhaps more.
Todayâs announcement by the CDCâthat new research and concerns about the Delta variant leads CDC to recommend a return to masking in parts of the countryâis another step on our journey to defeating this virus. I hope all Americans who live in the areas covered by the CDC guidance will follow it; I certainly will when I travel to these areas.
Today, the CDC also reaffirmed that we can safely reopen schools this fallâfull time. Masking students is inconvenient, I know, but will allow them to learn and be with their classmates with the best available protection.
Most importantly, todayâs announcement also makes clear that the most important protection we have against the Delta variant is to get vaccinated. Although most U.S. adults are vaccinated, too many are not. While we have seen an increase in vaccinations in recent days, we still need to do better.
On Thursday, I will lay out the next steps in our effort to get more Americans vaccinated. Vaccinations are free, safe, and effective to every American. Theyâve been available to every adult in this country for more than three monthsâat locations within 5 miles of 90% of the US population.
By following the science, and by doing our part by getting vaccinated, America can beat COVID. In the meantime, more vaccinations and mask wearing in the areas most impacted by the Delta variant will enable us to avoid the kind of lockdowns, shutdowns, school closures, and disruptions we faced in 2020. Unlike 2020, we have both the scientific knowledge and the tools to prevent the spread of this disease. We are not going back to that.
This piece has been updated to include an additional statement from Biden released earlier in the day.
