U.S. President Joe Biden invited 'Dude With Sign' to the White House, on Friday, to boost Gen Z vaccination rates.
The White House teamed up with yet another social media figure to promote the COVID-19 vaccine. Other than Olivia Rodrigo, it teamed up with the man behind the popular page "Dude With Sign."
Biden posed alongside the social media star, Seth Phillips, in a photo posted to the Instagram account, with each holding a sign urging people to get vaccinated.

“Lets look out for each other and get vaccinated," Phillips's sign reads, while Biden, sporting a tan suit and aviators, holds a sign reading, “This dude gets it, folks.”
It is a part of the administration’s greater social media efforts to encourage more people to get the vaccine.
In the same manner, social media comedian Benito Skinner posted a video this week walking viewers through a fictionalized day-in-the-life account of a White House intern.
Moreover, White House press secretary Jen Psaki made a guest appearance in the video, with the pair discussing how many Americans have gotten vaccinated.
"We've come a long way in our fight against this virus. We've vaccinated 160 million Americans," Psaki says at one point in the video.
