The vaccination campaign in good progress across the Atlantic.
The Democratic President will deliver a speech in which he "will note that the United States will reach 200 million doses this week," a White House official said on Wednesday on condition of anonymity.
This goal was set by Joe Biden in the first 100 days of his presidency.
The goal will be achieved a little early, the 100th day of Joe Biden's mandate is only at the end of next week.
The United States, the country deploring the highest number of deaths from Covid-19, carried out an effective vaccination campaign, ahead of certain European countries, and neighboring Canada.
A doubled goal
When he took office on January 20, Joe Biden pledged to have 100 million doses of the vaccine administered in his first 100 days, a goal that many Republicans had deliberately found easy to achieve.
On March 25, when the country was well ahead of its targets, the president doubled that figure, setting it at 200 million.
All adults eligible for vaccination
"I know it's ambitious, twice our initial target," Joe Biden said.
"But no other country in the world has come close to what we are doing."
All U.S. adults have been eligible for vaccination since April 19.
The increase in the number of Covid-19 cases in parts of the country, notably Michigan, is dampening the climate of rejoicing in the White House.
However, the number of deaths remains on the national level, thanks to the vaccination of the elderly and the improvement of care.
