• Description:
  The Race to Vaccinate
  
  The United States recently administered a record 3.38 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine in a single day. As of April 1, 2021, nearly 154 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine have been administered in the United States, with over 56 million people having been fully vaccinated. We now have three historic, safe, and effective vaccines being administered across the country at a rapid pace, and more vaccines are in the works. A new CDC study shows that COVID-19 vaccines are effective at preventing COVID-19 infections and serious COVID-19 illness. Once fully vaccinated, a person’s risk of infection is reduced by up to 90%.
