0:50Now PlayingPresident Joe Biden will announce Tuesday that he wants all American adults to be eligible for a coronavirus vaccine by April 19, a White House official said, citing a target date all but two states are already set to meet.
Biden will also announce that 150 million doses of vaccine were administered within his first 75 days in office, keeping pace with his accelerated goal of getting 200 million shots into arms by his 100th day in office.
By April 19, every state but Oregon and Hawaii are scheduled to have opened up vaccines to every non-minor. Those two states are currently set to meet that target May 1, Biden’s previous goal for every U.S. adult to become eligible.
Almost half of U.S. states had opened vaccination to everyone 16 and older by the end of last week. That will rise to 36 by the end of this week. CNN reported that Biden is expected to credit governors’ effort to meet his earlier deadline for the updated goal.
