US Vice President Kamala Harris on Tuesday took her second dose of the coronavirus vaccine in a televised setting at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and urged Americans to get vaccinated. "I want to urge everyone to take the vaccine when it is your turn," Harris told C-SPAN viewers on Tuesday. President Joe Biden has said the goal of his administration is to vaccinate 100 million Americans in the first 100 days of his presidency. "This increases the total vaccine order for the US by 50 per cent, from 400 million to 600 million with these additional doses expected to deliver this summer." The release added that with the additional doses the United States will have enough vaccines to fully vaccinate 300 million Americans by the end of the summer.
