“Four days before Christmas, as coronavirus cases spike and testing lines snake around city blocks, President Biden on Tuesday will again attempt to persuade Americans to take protections to fend off the fast-spreading omicron variant,” the Washington Post reports.
“But at a moment of great urgency — both for the nation’s health and the president’s standing — he has few new tools at his disposal, at least not politically palatable ones, and public health experts fear that exhausted Americans have tuned out their warnings.”
Wall Street Journal: America’s mixed response to the Omicron variant comes down to geography.
Biden will speak at 2:30 p.m. ET.
