Well, the regime gave it their best shot — pardon the pun — but the Biden administration is going to come up short of his stated COVID-19 vaccination goal by July 4, according to a report on Tuesday.
“The White House said Tuesday that it will likely fall short of President Joe Biden’s goal of partially vaccinating 70 percent of American adults by Independence Day, but insisted that it has ‘succeeded beyond our highest expectations’ in returning the nation to a pre-pandemic normal,” NBC News reported.
“Jeffrey Zients, the head of the White House Covid-19 response team, said that the administration had hit its 70 percent vaccination target among Americans ages 30 and older, and is poised to reach that threshold for those 27 and older by the Fourth of July,” the reported added.
Nevertheless, it’s going to take “a few extra weeks” for Americans 18 and older to have reached 70-percent vaccinated, Zients said.
“The reality is, many younger Americans have felt like Covid-19 is not something that impacts them and have been less eager to get the shot,” he said.
“We always intended July Fourth as a moment to take stock and celebrate the progress we’ve made. But by no means was it an end point,” a senior administration official said. “What really matters is what the country feels like and what Americans are safely able to do. Restaurants and schools have been able to reopen. There will be celebrations that are very different than what we talked about even a few weeks ago.”
