How the U.S President plans to curb the delta variant
US President Joe Biden has unveiled sweeping new Covid-19 vaccination mandates in a bid to increase vaccination numbers and curb the surging Delta variant
The President has just addressed Americans, announcing a new rule that requires all private employers with 100 or more employees to either mandate vaccines for their workforce or carry out daily testing.
The regulation will be issued by the Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration “in the coming weeks”, with a likely 90-day grace period.
Around 80 million Americans will be impacted by the sweeping new measure, and it follows reports that Biden also wants to mandate vaccines for federal employees and contractors – covering several more million workers.
This is all part of a six-point plan by the Biden administration to tackle the pandemic and boost the nation’s economic prospects moving forward.
Biden will also call on governors to get all of their states’ teachers and support staff vaccinated and encourage schools to set up testing facilities.

Trump claims Iran’s military largely neutralized; tensions rise with attacks threatening air travel and oil shipping.
President Trump says Iran’s military capability has been largely neutralised, including its navy and air force, as the conflict in the Middle East intensifies. Iranian attacks have threatened commercial air travel and oil shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, raising fears of wider economic fallout.
The U.S. Embassy in Riyadh has faced two attacks, while Gulf states worked to intercept further Iranian strikes. Officials report six U.S. troops killed and more than 700 deaths inside Iran as the exchange of fire escalates.
With global markets watching closely, the region remains on edge as military and diplomatic tensions show no signs of easing.
