All U.S. adults now eligible for COVID-19 vaccine: how to find a shot
CBSN
American adults in all 50 states as well as the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico are now eligible for the vaccine as of Monday, meeting President Biden's goal of April 19 eligibility.
Mr. Biden set the April 19 goal earlier this month, although the vast majority of states had already expanded eligibility to all adults earlier than that. The U.S. is nearing Mr. Biden's updated goal of providing 200 million shots by his 100th day in office, despite the federal government's decision to pause the Johnson & Johnson vaccine after a small number of women who had received the shot developed a rare blood clot disorder. Dr. Anthony Fauci told CBS News' "Face the Nation" Sunday that he expects a decision on whether to resume that particular vaccine by Friday. "If you're 16 or over, it is your turn to get vaccinated, no matter where you live," Andy Slavitt, White House senior adviser for COVID-19 response said during a briefing Monday.More Related News
