Biden backs federal mask mandate through executive order:
Joseph R. Biden said Wednesday that, if it is deemed within his scope of power as president, he would sign an executive order mandating masks across the United States as a way to slow the spread of the coronavirus and save lives.

You got to make all of it available to other experts across the nation, so they can look and see. So there’s consensus, this is a safe vaccine.” ---READ MORE HERE
