Olivia Rodrigo has joined President Joe Biden‘s efforts to boost vaccination rates among America’s youth.
The 18-year-old singer met with the president and Dr. Anthony Fauci during a visit Wednesday.
The young singer, who starred in High School Musical: The Series and has several chart-topping songs, plans to record videos urging young people to get the jab, launching a larger social media campaign to promote vaccination.
On Tuesday, Rodrigo announced her upcoming visit to the White House by commenting on Biden’s Instagram post.
A recent CDC study revealed that younger Americans are getting vaccinated at a rate slower than that of older adults – 68 percent of people 18 and older have received at least one shot of a coronavirus vaccine and 65 percent of people 12 and older have gotten at least one shot.
