Biden to announce plans to secure 100M more J&J vaccine doses: report
BY JORDAN WILLIAMS - 03/10/21 07:31 AM EST

President Biden is expected to announce plans on Wednesday to secure 100 million more doses of Johnson & Johnson’s COVID-19 vaccine, The New York Times reports.

Biden is expected to make the announcement during a meeting with executives from the pharmaceutical giant and Merck, according to the Times. The goal would reportedly be to have enough supply to inoculate children, and to possibly administer booster doses or reformulate the vaccine for coronavirus variants.

they could presumably offer boosters to those already vaccinated.

5. I love it when a president tries to take care of the country,

instead of trying to commit genocide on the American populace.
