ATLANTA — Atlanta will get a vice president’s visit as Kamala Harris arrives today to help get more people on the COVID-19 vaccine.
The visit is part of the COVID “month of work”. Harris visited Greenville, South Carolina, earlier this week with the same vaccination message.
Harris will be at a local warehouse in the morning and give a speech in the afternoon.

The Biden administration’s plan is to “mobilize a rapid race across America to get 70% of American adults at least one shot by the Fourth of July.”
The White House said 12 states have already given at least one injection to 70% of adults and more than 28 states have fully inoculated the capital to 50% or more of the adult population.
