Biden: 'The pandemic is over'

(CNN) President Joe Biden said he believes the Covid-19 pandemic is "over" in an appearance on CBS' "60 Minutes," but acknowledged the US still has a "problem" with the virus that has killed more than 1 million Americans. It's -- but the pandemic is over," Biden said. Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director-general of the World Health Organization, said in a news briefing last week that the end of the Covid-19 pandemic was "in sight, " and that the world has never been in a better position to end the Covid-19 pandemic. It's not the first time Biden has gone beyond the US approach of "strategic ambiguity" when it comes to Taiwan. During a visit to Tokyo in May, Biden said the US would intervene militarily if China attempts to take Taiwan by force.
