NEW YORK -- U.S. President-elect Joe Biden on Monday urged Americans to wear a mask after the first meeting of his coronavirus task force, even as the nation rejoiced in the news of progress on vaccine development.
"We're still facing a very dark winter," the former vice president said in a livestreamed briefing, warning that administering vaccines can take time and that mask-wearing remains essential for the foreseeable future.
