The press secretary also indicated that the Biden administration, which has supported employers who impose Vaccine mandates, might have more to say on that score too.

“I will note that we’ve seen that there are a range of ways that we have increased vaccinations across the country — or vaccinations have increased, I should say. One of them is private sector companies mandating, in different capacities, that their employees get vaccinated, or certain school districts mandate,” she said, according to a White House transcript.

A report in The New York Times that did not name its sources said Biden will “impose new vaccination mandates as part of a broad plan to put pressure on private businesses, federal agencies and schools to enact stricter vaccination and testing policies.”

Some were already objecting to what they expect Biden to propose.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, about 72.5 percent of Americans 12 and older have had at least one dose of Vaccine and 61.7 percent are fully vaccinated, with the percentages varying widely by state.
