US President Joe Biden will receive a Covid-19 vaccine booster shot on Monday, the White House said.
The 78-year-old leader, who is encouraging the boosters as a new tool against the coronavirus pandemic, will "receive a Covid-19 booster shot in line with" US government health authorities' guidelines, the White House said.
Biden will also deliver remarks on the fight against Covid. The event was scheduled for 1:00 pm (1700 GMT).
American health authorities have recommended boosters for three categories of people: those 65 and older, those 18-64 with an underlying medical condition such as diabetes or obesity, and those who are especially exposed to the virus because of their work or where they live.
