The president-elect of the United States, Joe Biden (78), and his wife, Jill Biden (69), plan to publicly vaccinate the new vaccine against the coronavirus infection (Corona 19) on the 21st (local time), announced the Committee of Biden’s transition on the 18th.
A spokesman for the Transitional Committee, Gen Paski, told reporters on the day that Biden’s couple will receive the Corona 19 vaccine developed jointly by Pfizer and German Bioentech on the 21st. The place or time of the vaccination was not mentioned.
The couple, who is also Vice President Kamala Harris, will be vaccinated a week later. The Independent Committee explained that it followed the advice of the experts to meet with Biden-elect on a time difference. Experts have warned that President-elect Biden and Vice President-elect Harris must be prepared for a situation where they suffer side effects after vaccination.
Meanwhile, Biden has repeatedly announced that he will publicly vaccinate the Corona 19 vaccine to increase public confidence in the vaccine. At a press conference last week, he urged the public to get vaccinated, saying, “You must believe in vaccines.”
This morning, the vice president of the United States, Mike Pence, 61, was publicly vaccinated for the first time as a first-rate person.
Vice President Pence was vaccinated in the Eisenhower administration building next to the White House, along with his wife Karen and Jarom Adams, chief of public health for the United States administration. Vice President Pence was broadcast live on television. He said, “I didn’t feel anything. I’m fine,” he said after vaccinating in about 30 seconds.
The Democratic Speaker of the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, and the Republican Senate Mitch McConnell also announced that they had received the vaccine.
However, President Donald Trump has yet to reveal the timing of the vaccination. In this regard, on the 16th, CNN quoted a White House official and reported that “President Trump will not be vaccinated until the medical staff recommends it.”
The official said the effect of a therapeutic agent mixed with a monoclonal antibody that was hit by President Trump when he became infected with Corona 19 in October continues. However, he added, “when the time comes, we have no choice but to inoculate at the end.”
