Joe Biden visited a Kalamazoo factory and learned the process behind creating one of the two vaccines
After visiting the Pfizer manufacturing plant in Michigan, US President Joe Biden on Sunday (local time) thanked the company's workers for their tireless efforts and said because of their hard work Americans are going to beat COVID-19.
"On Friday, I visited Kalamazoo, Michigan to tour a Pfizer manufacturing plant. I had an opportunity to see the COVID-19 vaccine production process up close and thank the workers for their tireless efforts - because of their hard work we're going to beat COVID-19," Biden wrote on Twitter.
On Friday (local time) Biden visited a factory in Kalamazoo, where he met with lab workers and learned about the process behind creating one of the two COVID-19 vaccines that are being widely used across the country to inoculate Americans, reported The Hill.
"I came here because I want the American people to understand the extraordinary, extraordinary work that's being done to undertake the most difficult operational challenges this nation has ever faced," said Biden.
However, it marked just the second time Biden had travelled outside the Washington, DC, area since taking office, The Hill reported.
