Biden says U.S. will not enter lockdown despite COVID delta variant threat

Biden, who spoke at the White House, was asked whether the severity of the new strain of COVID-19 could send the U.S. back into a lockdown, to which he replied: "I don't think so." "So many people have already been vaccinated, but the delta variant can cause more people to die in areas where people have not been vaccinated," he said. "Existing vaccines are very effective," Biden continued. "So no, it is not a lockdown, but some areas could be very hurt."
