Gov. Spencer Cox had a request for President Joe Biden to help motivate more people to get their COVID-19 vaccines — one that the president welcomed with enthusiasm.
“(There’s) one area we can use some help from the White House and others, and that is modeling what a fully vaccinated person can do,” Utah’s Republican governor told the Democratic leader of the nation on Tuesday. “We have fully vaccinated people. We should start acting like it.”
“That’s a good point,” Biden said.
The conversation took place on a call Biden hosted with Cox and five other governors — both Democrats and Republicans — to discuss each states’ successes in their rollout of the COVID-19 vaccines.
