2:01Now PlayingVice President Mike Pence signaled he’ll reject demands to immediately oust Donald Trump over the deadly riot in the Capitol, as the two met and agreed to work together for the remainder of the term, according to a senior administration official.

The change “increases the number of vaccine doses 20% overnight,” BioNTech Chief Executive Officer said at the JPMorgan conference.
