Biden to deploy FEMA, National Guard to set up Covid vaccine clinics across the U.S.

President-elect Joe Biden plans to use FEMA and the National Guard to build coronavirus vaccine clinics across the United States, according to new details of his Covid-19 vaccination plan released by his transition team on Friday. Drug store chains and pharmacies were supposed to take on a larger role in distributing the vaccine once the government expanded access to more people. The group estimated that the country's retail pharmacies could administer at least 100 million doses of vaccines each month, which would exceed the incoming administration's promise of 100 million shots in 100 days. ET, more than 31.1 million doses of vaccine had been distributed across the U.S., but just over 12.2 million shots have been administered, according to data compiled by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. According to the plan, Biden will also invoke the Defense Production Act to "maximize the manufacture of vaccine and vaccine supplies for the country."
