在未来几周里,超过1亿美国人将接受他已下达的疫苗要求。

While visiting a suburban5 Chicago business that's requiring vaccinations6 or tests for workers, the president said he wants more employers to follow suit while acknowledging mandates are a tough medicine.

芝加哥郊区一家公司要求工人接种疫苗或进行检测,总统在访问该企业时表示,他希望更多的雇主能够效仿,尽管认为疫苗强制令是种强硬的举措。

"But they're lifesaving. They're game-changing for our country."

“但是疫苗强制令能够救命。他们能很大程度地改变我们的国家。”

Public health officials in the Bay Area say they'll ease indoor masking requirements for certain indoor public settings, including offices, gyms, college classrooms and churches, once counties reach low COVID-19 case rates, continuously low hospitalization rates and 80 percent of the total population is fully7 vaccinated.

湾区的公共卫生官员表示,一旦各县达到低新冠病例率、持续低住院率和80%的总人口完全接种疫苗的要求,他们将放宽某些室内公共场所的室内口罩要求,包括办公室、健身房、大学教室和教堂。
