Biden vows 100m COVID vaccinations for US in first 100 days



WASHINGTON: US President-elect Joe Biden has set a goal of 100 million Covid vaccinations in his first 100 days in office, BBC reported.

Biden said his first months in office would not end the outbreak and gave few details on rollout strategy but he said he would change the course of Covid-19.

Introducing his health team for when he takes office on 20 January, he urged Americans to “mask up for 100 days”.

On Tuesday, a report paved the way for a Pfizer/BioNTech vaccine to be approved and rolled out for Americans.
