There\u2019s currently an interagency process that is looking at many of the questions around vaccine verification,\u201d Psaki said. \u201cAnd that issue will touch many agencies as verification is an issue that will potentially touch many sectors of society, as you have certainly alluded to. \u2026 We expect \u2014 as Andy Slavitt, I think, alluded to \u2014 that a determination or development of a vaccine passport, or whatever you want to call it, will be driven by the private sector.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOurs will more be focused on guidelines that can be used as a basis,\u201d she added. \u201cAnd there are a couple key principles that we are working from. One is that there will be no centralized, universal federal vaccinations database and no federal mandate requiring everyone to obtain a single vaccination credential.&nbsp; Second, we want to encourage an open marketplace with a variety of private sector companies and nonprofit coalitions developing solutions. And third, we want to drive the market toward meeting public interest goals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another reporter asked Psaki about an issue that was raised at the CDC-White House briefing earlier in the day where officials urged Americans to take steps to prevent a fourth surge, including eliminating nonessential travel from their plans.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs the warning against nonessential travel something that the White House is taking into consideration with regard to upcoming travel by the President and Vice President, both for business and for personal reasons?\u201d the reporter asked.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWell, I would say the President travels, as does the Vice President, on a private plane,\u201d Psaki said. \u201cThat is the purview of every President and Vice President throughout American history. That is, of course, different than traveling on a commercial flight and going to mass events. As you know, we don\u2019t \u2014 the President is not hosting rallies, nor is the Vice President. We take the role of sending \u2014 being models quite seriously. But I think most Americans would recognize the difference.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\" readability=\"7.2775119617225\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Jen Psaki just said it&#8217;s fine for Joe Biden to travel while telling the rest of us not to due to COVID-19 because he has a &#8220;private plane.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/TS4ThO3v3S\">pic.twitter.com\/TS4ThO3v3S<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Caleb Hull (@CalebJHull) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CalebJHull\/status\/1376584106356711428?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 29, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Later on in the briefing a reporter asked Psaki if the CDC travel guidance does not apply if people are traveling on private planes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think the President \u2014 he was asking me specifically about the President\u2019s travel and the Vice President\u2019s travel.&nbsp; And the specifics of the guidelines \u2014 you can certainly ask the CDC for further clarification,\u201d Psaki said. \u201cBut what I\u2019m conveying is that the President \u2014 and as any President does \u2014 travels on Air Force One, whether he is traveling to visit a community in this country or whether he is traveling to go to his home state of Delaware.&nbsp; And I think most people recognize that as being a difference.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><i><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
