Over 400K Americans got booster shot at pharmacies this weekend: White House
Over 400,000 Americans received a booster shot at a pharmacy since Friday and nearly 1 million more have scheduled appointments in the next few weeks, according to the White House.
The U.S. is expected to hit a milestone of 200 million Americans with at least one shot on Wednesday, White House COVID-19 response coordinator Jeff Zients said.
The White House also touted another important milestone: racial equity in vaccinations nationwide.
According to a new Kaiser Family Foundation poll, 73% of Latinos and 70% of Black Americans have now gotten at least one shot, compared to 71% of white Americans. In May, this same poll found that 65% of white Americans were vaccinated compared to 56% of Black Americans.
