“Biden will give a speech on Tuesday about the spread of the omicron strain. He will talk about new steps by the administration to help communities, "- said a source in the White House.

In addition, Biden plans to supplement the already announced "winter plan" along with "a sharp warning about what winter will be for Americans who have decided not to get vaccinated."

The interlocutor of the publication also stressed that the Biden administration is also ready for the growing number of cases of infection, and the president himself will explain how his team will "respond to this challenge."
