US President Joe Biden expects enough corona vaccine for all adult Americans by the end of May.
The goal would be reached two months earlier than expected, said Biden and announced that the company will help Merck & Co. produce the coronavirus vaccine for rival Johnson & Johnson, which the US recently launched as the third vaccine in the fight against the Had allowed coronavirus.
The US President also instructed the US states to vaccinate teachers as a matter of urgency.
He also stated that it was the goal that educators, teachers, members of the school staff and employees in child and youth welfare received at least one dose of vaccine.
To achieve the goal, people who are qualified could register later this month to be vaccinated at a nearby pharmacy, Biden announced.
The measure is intended to accompany the planned opening of schools in the USA.
