White House Partners With Uber, Lyft For Free Rides To Vaccine Sites
HuffPost
“We have to make it easier and more convenient for all Americans to get vaccinated,” President Joe Biden said.
People heading to get vaccinated against COVID-19 can soon take a free Uber or Lyft ride there, the White House announced Tuesday. The initiative is part of President Joe Biden’s effort to get 70% of U.S. adults vaccinated with at least one dose by July 4. The program will run from May 24 until that goal date in order to “ensure that transportation is less of a barrier” for people seeking to get vaccinated. “I think that’s really stepping up,” Biden said of the ride-hailing companies while speaking at a virtual meeting with several state governors.More Related News
