Biden detailed the COVID-19 vaccination effort, describing the mobilization of the government to get Americans vaccinated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cWe have gotten vaccines to nearly 40,000 pharmacies and over 700 community health centers where the poorest of the poor can be reached,\u201d Biden stated. \u201cWe are setting up community vaccination sites, developing mobile units to get to hard-to-reach communities. Today, 90% of Americans now live within five miles of a vaccination site.\u00a0<span class=\"s1\">Everyone over the age of 16, everyone is now eligible to get vaccinated right now, right away<\/span>. Go get vaccinated, America. Go and get the vaccination, they\u2019re available. You are eligible now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine is the only COVID-19 vaccine that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has given emergency use authorization to for people 16 years of age and older. Both vaccines from Moderna and Johnson &#038; Johnson are under an emergency use authorization for people 18 years of age and older.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The FDA granted emergency <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fda.gov\/news-events\/press-announcements\/fda-takes-key-action-fight-against-covid-19-issuing-emergency-use-authorization-first-covid-19\"><span class=\"s2\">authorization<\/span><\/a> to the Pfizer COVID-19 vaccine in December for individuals 16 years or older. The vaccine is part of a two-dose regimen, spaced three weeks apart, and has been shown to be 95% effective at preventing COVID-19. It was the first COVID-19 vaccine authorized by the FDA.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Biden continued, \u201cWhen I was sworn in on January 20, less than 1% of the seniors in America were fully vaccinated against COVID-19.\u00a0<span class=\"s1\">100 days later<\/span>, 70% of seniors in America over 65 are protected. Fully protected. Senior deaths from COVID-19 are down 80% since January. Down 80% because of all of you. And more than half of all the adults in America have gotten at least one shot.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">As is the norm for many presidential addresses to Congress, President Biden told a story about a citizen. He said, \u201cA mass vaccination center in Glendale, Arizona. I asked a nurse, I said, \u2018What\u2019s it like?\u2019 She looked at me and she said, \u2018It is like every shot is giving a dose of hope. That was her phrase, \u2018a dose of hope.\u2019 A dose of hope for an educator in Florida who has a child suffering from auto immune disease, wrote to me, said she\u2019s worried, she was worried about bringing the virus home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cShe said she then got vaccinated at a large site in her car. She said she sat in her car when she got vaccinated and just cried. Cried out of joy and cried out of relief. Parents seeing the smiles on their kids\u2019 faces for those who are able to go back to school because the teachers, school bus drivers, cafeteria workers have been vaccinated,\u201d Biden continued.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201c<span class=\"s1\">Grandparents hugging their children and grandchildren instead of pressing hands against the window to say goodbye<\/span>. It means everything. Those things mean everything,\u201d he said. \u201cYou know there\u2019s still \u2014 you all know it \u2014 you know it better than any group of Americans. There\u2019s still more work to do to beat this virus. We can\u2019t let our guard down.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cBut tonight, I can say because of you, the American people, our progress these past 100 days against one of the worst pandemics in history has been one of the greatest logistical achievements, logistical achievements this country has ever seen,\u201d Biden said.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/breaking-cdc-issues-new-mask-guidelines-for-fully-vaccinated\"><span class=\"s3\">loosened<\/span><\/a> its restrictions on mask-wearing this week, stating that those who are fully vaccinated no longer need to wear masks while outdoors, unless they are in a crowded area.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">However, the CDC <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/coronavirus\/2019-ncov\/vaccines\/fully-vaccinated-guidance.html\"><span class=\"s3\">maintains<\/span><\/a> its guidance that most fully-vaccinated people \u2014 those who are two weeks past their final dose \u2014 do not need to quarantine if they are exposed to someone who has COVID-19 as long as they are asymptomatic.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">As Biden entered the House Chamber, he wore a mask. Members of Congress wore masks and were socially-distanced during the speech. Vice President Kamala Harris and Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) wore masks throughout Biden\u2019s speech. President Biden is fully vaccinated, and Harris and Pelosi have both received the COVID-19 vaccine. Many members of Congress have received the vaccination against the virus, as well. They were socially-distanced and wore masks as if they were at risk of spreading the virus, even though the CDC guidance suggests that once someone is vaccinated, they are highly unlikely to be infected with the virus since they are not required to quarantine upon exposure.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Some Americans have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.npr.org\/sections\/health-shots\/2021\/04\/07\/984697573\/vaccine-refusal-may-put-herd-immunity-at-risk-researchers-warn\"><span class=\"s3\">reportedly<\/span><\/a> lost interest in receiving the vaccine, possibly due to the fact that their fully vaccinated leaders in government continue to act as if they are at risk.<\/p>\n<p><i>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
