US first lady Jill Biden visited a pop-up Covid-19 vaccination clinic in Waipahu, Hawaii, to encourage unvaccinated Hawaiians to get their shots as the delta variant surges through much of the US.
Biden in remarks at the clinic at Waipahu High School said the virus has become more contagious than ever and urged the unvaccinated to help us move past this virus once and for all.
"I'm here to ask everyone listening right now, to choose to get vaccinated," Biden said.
Nearly 60 per cent of the state's population is fully vaccinated. State officials are scrambling to get more Hawaiians vaccinated as the infection rate climbs.
