President Joe Biden is calling on resistant Republican governors to “get out of the way” of rules to contain the more transmissible and dangerous COVID-19 variantWASHINGTON -- President Joe Biden on Tuesday called on resistant Republican governors to “get out of the way” of vaccine rules aimed at containing the more transmissible and dangerous COVID-19 variant. Speaking from the White House, Biden sharply criticized Florida Gov. “If you’re not going to help, at least get out of the way of people trying to do the right thing," Biden said. Roughly 90 million eligible Americans aged 12 and over have yet to receive one dose of vaccine. Biden announced that the U.S. has donated and shipped more than 110 million doses of COVID-19 vaccines to more than 60 countries, ranging from Afghanistan to Zambia.
