"Got my annual, updated shot today. You should get yours too, for real. Vaccines.gov," the caption read. The BeReal reference was thrown in for good measure.
The vaccine in question is the updated Covid-19 booster vaccine, which is now being recommended for children and adults.
Biden received the vaccine on October 25, making it his third coronavirus booster shot and his fifth vaccine dose. At the White House, he said, "Can we repeat what happened in the past winters — more infections, more hospitalizations, more loved ones getting sick, even dying from the virus? Or can we have a much better winter if we use all — all — the tools we have available to us now?"
The messaging on Twitter was slightly more lighthearted, thanks to the inclusion of BeReal. Arguably, the app is at the height of social media at the moment.
