Biden Announces More Steps to Speed Up COVID Vaccinations
— More pharmacies and mass vaccination sites to give shots
He announced several steps to speed up vaccinations, including:
Distributing vaccines to more pharmacies. "We're going to do this by growing from having 17,000 pharmacies giving out vaccination shots to nearly 40,000 pharmacies, and doing it within the next 3 weeks; that will more than double the number of pharmacies where you can go get vaccinated," he said.
Setting up more mass vaccination sites. "In the next 3 weeks, we will add 12 more federally run mass vaccination sites," said Biden. "Every day at these sites, tens of thousands of people are able to drive up, get a vaccine shot while in their car, and leave in less than an hour." He noted that "over 60% of the shots given at these sites goes to minority communities, because they're in minority communities ... They're the ones most affected by both the vaccine, but also by the pandemic."
Making it easier for seniors and the disabled to get vaccinated. "We know that there are a number of seniors and people with disabilities who may be isolated and have lack of access to transportation," said Biden. "And there are community groups that can help -- they're trying to help now -- so I'm sending out millions of dollars through the Department of Health and Human Services to provide assistance, including transportation, so more vulnerable seniors and people with disabilities can get their shots.... We cannot let transportation be a barrier to any senior getting a vaccination."

Biden aims for 70% of U.S. adults to get one vaccine dose by July 4
Biden's new goal takes into account an increasing, though not unexpected, challenge of getting shots into the arms of people who are hesitant about the vaccine.
Biden said his administration would focus on getting vaccine to more rural areas of the country, using smaller locations as mass vaccination sites were wound down.
