President Joe Biden has accelerated the timeline for all American adults to access the COVID-19 vaccine, moving the deadline to April 19th, ahead of the original May 1st date. During a visit to a vaccination site, Biden announced that 150 million doses have been administered, keeping the U.S. on track to meet his goal of 200 million doses in his first 100 days.
