President Joe Biden on Tuesday called for a renewed urgency to get more Americans vaccinated against Covid-19 as a variant of the virus is contributing to case surges in parts of the country.

“We can’t get complacent now,” Biden said. “You can do this. Let’s finish the job.”

In a brief speech at the White House, Biden said that his administration would shift focus from mass vaccination sites to a smaller, more community-based approach to try to reach those still holding out on getting the shots.
