American President Joe Biden has promised the Americans that on July 4 they will celebrate not only the United States Independence Day, but also the day of independence from the coronavirus. He said this, speaking at the White House with a televised address to fellow citizens, which is timed to the anniversary of the introduction of sanitary and epidemiological restrictions in the country due to the pandemic. The recording is available on the White House Twitter account.

Thus, he urged citizens to be vaccinated and continue to wear masks. According to the head of state, it is necessary to contribute to the fight against coronavirus – in this case, it is highly likely that by early July, small groups will be able to get together after a “long difficult year.” “To be honest, spending July 4th with your loved ones is a goal, but a lot can change,” Biden added.

The President clarified that it is too early to weaken his vigilance, since “this battle is still far from over.” “Scientists have made it clear that the situation may worsen again due to the spread of new strains of the virus,” he said.

In early March, Biden predicted a return to normal life in the country in a year. “I hope that by this time next year we will be back to normal, perhaps earlier,” said the American leader. He added that his administration's goal of 100 million injections of the coronavirus vaccine in its first 100 days in office will be met.

The United States remains the world leader in the number of people infected with coronavirus – this figure is almost 30 million people, more than 530 thousand patients have died. At the same time, about 19 percent of the country's population – more than 64 million people – received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
