Former First Lady Michelle Obama revealed that she is not letting anyone who is not fully vaccinated against the coronavirus to get near her family.

The former First Lady also revealed that she had established a new rule for anyone wanting to interact with her family.

“Be vaccinated.”

“You wanna hang out with us? Get your vaccine. Get all of it. Finish it up. And then we can talk,” Ms Obama said, laughing. “So I urge everybody out there, within the sound of our voices, please, please get the vaccine. It’s time.”

The US is averaging about 40,000 new coronavirus cases per day, which is down 43 per cent from its last peak less than a month ago.
