Biden Unveils COVID-19 Vaccination Strategy By Alicia Ault
Jan. 15, 2021 President-elect Joseph R. Biden unveiled a plan to jump-start the nation’s faltering COVID-19 vaccine effort that will include establishing mass vaccination sites and mobile vaccine clinics around the country.
Biden has promised that his administration will vaccinate 100 million people during the first 100 days. “I’m convinced we can get it done,” Biden said during a speech Friday. “This is a time to set big goals and to pursue them with courage and conviction because the health of the nation is at stake,” he said.
The $20 billion plan is part of a $400 billion COVID response that’s contained in a proposed $1.9 trillion COVID relief package. If approved by Congress, it would provide vaccines to all Americans with zero cost-sharing.

In an effort to mark a clean break from the Trump era, the president-elect plans to roll out dozens of executive orders in his first 10 days on top of a big stimulus plan and an expansive immigration bill.
