Great news! Biden can take more credit for something he had nothing to do with. Poor guy needs to look like he’s actually acomplishing something, not always failing.
337 million s h eeple
I don't think that number is correct. I still know many that have not gotten the shots.
Doses, not people
It is quite possible that soon enough vaccinated folks will be ordered to get more shots.
Soon the people who are not vaccinated will be ordered also to get the vaccine. If you think any government will be financing forever all the medical costs and economic shutdowns. No way. In 6 months vaccine will be mandatory after Delta causes the 4th. wave.
