Over 50% of US adults have vaccine jabs

AFP – Half of American adults have received at least one dose of the Covid-19 vaccine, according to data updated Sunday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the nation’s main public health agency.

50.4% of citizens over 18 years of age are partially immunized, while 32.5% are already fully vaccinated, a figure that rises to 65.9% for those over 65 years of age.

In all, more than 131.2 million people received at least one injection in the United States .

The application of the vaccine developed by the US group Johnson & Johnson was suspended across the country on Tuesday, after knowing the cases of six women – one of whom died – who developed serious blood clots after the injection.

The US authorities assured, however, that this pause would not have a major impact on the immense national vaccination campaign, since the doses of the Johnson & Johnson immunizer represent less than 5% of those administered so far in the United States.

“There are enough vaccines for all Americans. That is absolutely indisputable, “said President Joe Biden.
