CDC says U.S. has administered more than 200 million COVID-19 vaccine doses

The U.S. has administered more than 202 million coronavirus vaccine doses since the start of its inoculation campaign, with nearly 4 million vaccinations reported on Friday alone, according to the latest data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Why it matters: The numbers indicate Biden is on track to fulfill his promise of 200 vaccinations within his first 100 days in office. The president set a new goal late last month after it became clear the U.S. was outpacing his initial goal of 100 million doses.

By the numbers: 49.1% of U.S. adults have now received at least one dose.

64.6% of people in the country ages 65 and older are fully vaccinated.

38.5% of the total U.S. population has been vaccinated with at least one dose.
