President Joe Biden said his administration needs more funding for not just COVID-19 vaccines, but to plan for another pandemic.

“We do need more money,” Biden told reporters on Tuesday afternoon. “We don’t just need more money for vaccines for children eventually. We need more money to plan for the second pandemic. There’s gonna be another pandemic.” He did not elaborate.
