3:33Now PlayingVice President-elect Kamala Harris received her first dose of Moderna's Covid-19 vaccine in Southeast Washington, D.C. as part of the incoming administration’s effort to boost trust of the shots.
“That was easy,” she joked. “I barely felt it.” Her husband, Doug Emhoff, was also getting the shot at the United Medical Center.
“I trust the scientists,” Harris told reporters who accompanied her. “I urge everyone, when it is your turn, get vaccinated.” She said she chose that medical center so people living in minority communities knew they could get the vaccine from people who worked “in the hospital where your children were born, or where an elderly relative got medical treatment.”
More than 2 million doses of the Covid-19 vaccine have been administered in the U.S. since the process began on Dec. 14, according to a nationwide tally by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention -- far fewer than the 20 million the Trump administration promised would be administered by the end of the year.
Later today, President-elect Joe Biden will make remarks to address the slow roll-out of the coronavirus vaccine by President Donald Trump’s administration, a transition official said.
