Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden said during Thursday’s televised town hall that a federal vaccine mandate should be considered if the dynamics of the CCP (Chinese Communist Party) virus outbreak indicate a move like that would be helpful.

Biden said at the ABC Town Hall event at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, there are those that believe a COVID-19 vaccine is “the golden key” to turning the pandemic around and that one of the factors driving a decision about whether to make it mandatory or not is “the state of the nature of the vaccine when it comes out and how it’s being distributed.”
