Biden steps up his mask obsession

President Biden came into office swearing that he would “shut down the virus,” and now, a little more than two weeks into his administration, we see his plan for doing that is essentially the same as his predecessor’s except Biden really, really likes masks.

I know that health officials swear by them without actually being able to tell anyone exactly how effective masks are at reducing transmission of COVID-19, but at some point, the mask is only a symbol for people to show that they care. Remember, Biden has empathy. Unlike former President Donald Trump, Biden cares that people are dying.
