President Joe Biden is taking responsibility for distributing and administering COVID-19 vaccines in America, his chief of staff said Sunday, as he also defended statements different health advisers made.
“The fundamental difference between the Biden approach and the Trump approach is that we’re going to take responsibility at the federal government. We’re going to own this problem. We’re going to work closely with the states. They are our key partners in getting this done. But we’re also going to do the work ourselves,” Ron Klain said on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” referencing how over 41 million vaccine doses have been sent to states, but only 20 million have been administered.
