The total numbers of vaccinations for Covid-19 exceeded joe Biden’s goal of 100 million in 100 days as of yesterday, and may be in the vicinity of 200 million by the 100th day of his administration.
With the 3.1 million vaccinations reported by the CDC yesterday, 68% of all Americans over 65 years have now received at least one shot of vaccine. The percentage of all American residents vaccinated is 23.9% and is 30.7% for all adults.
The CDC also revised its guidance reducing the recommended spacing between school children (but not for adults) from six feet to three feet. Studies of schools in Massachusetts where both models were followed by different school districts showed no difference in the spread of infections. This will obviously make it easier for schools to open for in person attendance.
Other News:
People who have been sick with Covid and have never quite recovered, feel better after vaccinations. There is also some evidence that some people who have the strongest reactions to the vaccinations were previously infected with Covid even if they were unaware of an infection.
The state legislature of Idaho has recessed until April 6 after an outbreak of Covid-19 which infected at least six members. The legislature was considering forbidding local governments from requiring the wearing of masks.
The European Medicines Agency has found the AstraZenaca vaccine safe and effective after many nations suspended its use due to allegations it might cause blood clots.
