In three other tweets, Gates encouraged Americans to perform social evacuations, wear masks and buy COVID-19 vaccines and pointed out that this will eventually restore normal life in the United States.
He also praised Biden for his “commitment to connecting with the world” and his decision to rejoin the Paris Climate Agreement. In fact, Biden did sign the document asking the United States to do so on Wednesday afternoon.
With Americans across the country working together, more people get a COVID-19 vaccine every day, bringing us closer to a time when life will look much more like normal. Until then, we can slow the spread of the virus and save lives by continuing to distance and wear masks.

The agreement includes nearly 200 countries and has agreed to fight global warming by reducing carbon emissions. In 2017, when President Donald Trump withdrew the United States from the climate agreement, saying it was unfair to the United States and would make the country unemployed.
