China News Service, September 28. According to US media reports, US President Biden received the new crown vaccine booster on the afternoon of the 27th local time and broadcasted the vaccination process.

Biden emphasized in his speech that the third dose of vaccine is "safe and effective."

　　"I know it doesn't look like it, but I'm over 65 years old, and that's why I have a booster injection today." Biden said.

Data map: On December 21, 2020 local time, Biden was vaccinated publicly with the new crown vaccine in a hospital in Delaware.

　　According to the report, Biden chose to live broadcast the vaccination process at the White House in order to increase people’s confidence in the vaccine and encourage other qualified people to get vaccinated.

Biden received his first dose of Pfizer vaccine in December 2020 and the second dose the following month. Both vaccinations were also broadcast live on TV.

　　Biden, 78, belongs to the group recommended by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to receive Pfizer vaccine boosters.

The White House has previously stated that once the official recommendation of the third dose, Biden will publicly vaccinate.

　　The CDC recommended last week that Americans over 65, residents of nursing homes, patients with underlying diseases, and those engaged in high-risk occupations to receive a booster of Pfizer vaccine.

　　When the CDC director Valensky made this decision, he rarely overturned the opinion of an advisory group and supported the distribution of Pfizer's new crown vaccine booster to a wide range of Americans in high-risk environments.

　　Valensky defended the decision in an interview last weekend, saying that regarding whether individuals in high-risk work environments should be eligible for the third dose of the vaccine, scientific discussions have very close support for the pros and cons.

"Due to the closeness of support and we reviewed all the evidence submitted to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and CDC, I think it is appropriate for these people to be eligible for boosters."

　　"So, who are these people? These people are people who live and work in high-risk environments, including people in homeless shelters, collective housing, prisons, and, equally important, people who work with high-risk groups. So our medical staff, our teachers, our supermarket employees, and our public transportation employees are also included." She said.

　　In his speech last week, Biden urged all people who are eligible for booster doses to vaccinate.
