The White House has acknowledged that the US will miss out on a bid to strike Biden on July 4 Covid

Biden officials acknowledged that they had missed the target of the US President’s immunization of 70% of American adults by July 4, calling it a “target”.

Jeffrey Zients, respondent to the White House Covid-19, says that 70% of Americans over the age of 30 have once received a coronavirus vaccine. However, he said it could take “a few weeks” to achieve Joe Biden’s current July 4 budget to 70% of all adults.

Biden achieved the goal early last month, but the national vaccine has slowed down after a strong start in the fight against paramedics. vaccine delay.

“We have done better than we expected,” Zients told a news conference Tuesday. “Instead of holding small meetings at home, the United States is preparing for the fourth July event and organizing major celebrations across the country.”

Sixteen states and the District of Columbia have already reached the presidency. Of the U.S. population aged 18 and over, 65% have received at least one vaccine, according to figures from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. More than 150m Americans are fully vaccinated.

After wrestling with the elderly and staff in need of the first vaccine, its focus has been on young vaccines, which Zients said “feel like Covid-19 is not something that affects them”. He also said that “the country has a lot of work to do” to encourage vaccination between the ages of 18 and 26.

Biden officials now expect 70% of Americans 27 years of age or older to be vaccinated by the end of July 4, Zients said, adding that Biden’s second goal of reaching 160m vaccinated adults will be achieved “by the end of July”.

Officials across the country have made new meetings advocacy for vaccination such as the provision of free alcohol and firearms, as well as raffle of a million dollars, but the pace of the vaccination program has deteriorated over the past few weeks.

The need for such sites is gaining momentum as the Delta, a native of India, spreads to the US. That’s it swept across the UK and is criticized for raising charges in other parts of the world.

Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, warned of the Delta threat to U.S. survival and vaccination, saying that “its prevalence is greater” than the original Covid-19 and Alpha-type disease that was first reported in the United States. UK.
