CORONAVIRUS VACCINATIONS

Individuals who received their first coronavirus vaccination at Ford Field in March and April must return for their second dose exactly three weeks later.

Thousands of people are getting vaccinated every day across the state, but as we continue to try to fight the coronavirus pandemic, the role of physicians will be critical as we try to reach herd immunity.

“I’m concerned,” said Dr. Anthony Fauci, “But in general, we’re in a much better place than we were a year ago.”

The number of people in Michigan who are fully vaccinated against the coronavirus is growing every day -- but many viewers have questions about what that really means.

(AP Photo/Patrick Semansky)WASHINGTON – President Joe Biden is discussing the state of coronavirus vaccinations in the U.S. during a live event at the White House on Thursday. President Biden is pushing for states to make vaccines available to all adults by May. “We want to be oversupplied and overprepared,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki said last week. Biden had previously promised that 100 million doses of coronavirus vaccines would be administered in the U.S. within his first 100 days in office.

“The idea that you can get up here and talk about what you know, what the evidence, what the science is and know that’s it, let the science speak -- it is somewhat of a liberating feeling,” Fauci added. Dr. Fauci asked about difference between Trump and Biden administrations:"The idea that you can get up here and talk about what you know, what the evidence, what the science is and know that's it, let the science speak — it is somewhat of a liberating feeling." Throughout the pandemic, Trump constantly undermined Fauci’s credibility, falsely insisting that the pandemic was nearly over. Now under the Biden administration, Fauci is in full view of the public, feeling like he can speak freely and openly about the science surrounding the coronavirus pandemic. “One of the new things in this administration is, If you don’t know the answer, don’t guess,” Fauci said.
