'Should we have done more testing earlier? Yes. But we're doing more now,' he said, as he painted a portrait of slow progress.
WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden acknowledged the frustration many Americans say they are feeling as both inflation and the pandemic surge, along with missteps he said his administration has made on Covid strategy, as he capped his first year in office with a rare press conference.
"We have faced some of the biggest challenges that we've ever faced in this country these past few years, challenges to our public health, challenges to our economy. But we're getting through it," Biden said. "And not only are we getting through it. We're laying the foundation for a future where America wins the 21st century by creating jobs at a record pace, and we need to get inflation under control.
“I think the best thing to do is try to inform, not educate, inform the public of what's at stake in stark terms and let them make judgments and let them know who's for it and who’s against it,” Biden said. The news conference marked the first time Biden had formally taken questions from the full White House press corps since a climate summit in Scotland on Nov. 2.
