President Joe Biden announced a set of actions to ensure that the federal government will have enough vaccine supply for the entire U.S. population by the end of summer.
The Biden Administration will increase overall, weekly vaccine supply to states, Tribes and territories from 8.6 million doses to a minimum of 10 million doses. This increase of 1.4 million doses per week will allow millions more Americans to get vaccinated sooner than previously anticipated. The Administration is committing to maintaining this as the minimum supply level for the next three weeks.
