A few months ago, Biden announced that fully vaccinated people won’t need to wear masks anymore. Then, he insisted that July 4th would be the day our country was free from COVID… when in fact, the situation is only getting worse with the increasing cases of Delta variant racing through America.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), this July, the average number of new US cases has risen to 56,000 a day. That was almost 30,000 new cases added in just a week.
On the other hand, the 7-day average of vaccine doses being administered in the US increased to 600,000 a day. It’s still below the 2 million daily average earlier this year.
Dr. Anthony Fauci said that the US is “going in the wrong direction” as the number of COVID cases continues to rise. Here’s a Tweet containing a video of his insights:

For a moment, Biden thought that America was free from COVID. He celebrated with fireworks, parades, festivals, and cookouts around the nation.
But Biden celebrated far too early…
All the unreliable claims and false hope that Biden is showing us won’t do us any better. This is just him being unrealistic once again.
Infectious disease expert Dr. William Schaffner showed us what’s really happening around us. He said, “This [COVID battle] is not a short-run sprint; it’s a marathon.”
Here’s the unpleasant reality: Less than half the country is fully vaccinated against COVID… and the highly contagious Delta variant is threatening new outbreaks.
After a few weeks of Biden celebrating and claiming independence from the virus, we saw COVID cases go up fast…
At first, Biden claimed during a press conference that those fully vaccinated are safe from the virus. He said, “If you are vaccinated, you have over [a] 98% chance of never catching the virus at all.”
Looks like at that time, Biden hadn’t heard yet of the UK health minister who had both doses… but still caught COVID. He should be checking the facts first… instead of blindly reading what his team tells him to.
CDC Director Dr. Rochelle Walensky mentioned that the delta variant has the chance to infect people who got their doses already. He said, “… In rare occasions, some vaccinated people infected with the delta variant after vaccination may be contagious and spread the virus with others.”
After all those extravagant celebrations from Biden in the first week of July… he now wants to return the mask mandates in some states.
Right now, the CDC strongly encourages fully vaccinated people to wear masks in certain parts of the US where there are high volumes of cases.
Biden called this move “another step on our journey to defeating the virus” when he announced this.
But it’s more of a “misstep” from Biden because he celebrated too early and failed to look at the bigger picture.
To be free from COVID, having a firm president who can realistically look at the state of America is necessary to get the job done right…
