“But on Tuesday, White House COVID-19 coordinator Jeff Zients conceded that the current pace of vaccinations wouldn’t get the U.S. to the full goal and instead highlighted other vaccination milestones that were not previously public targets.

The worthy goal of 70% vaccination needs to be reached in order to stop a fall Covid surge that could be looming on the horizon.
