United States President-elect Joe Biden has received a Covid-19 vaccine live on television in a campaign to boost Americans' confidence in the jabs — and in marked contrast to President Donald Trump's mixed messaging.
The 78-year-old incoming president got the Pfizer vaccine at the Christiana Hospital in Newark, Delaware. His wife Jill received the shot earlier, the presidential transition team said, according to AFP.
Biden told Americans “there's nothing to worry about” when they get vaccinated and that in the meantime they should keep wearing masks and “listen to the experts.”
