President Joe Biden will announce this morning that “every adult in the US will be eligible for a coronavirus vaccine by April 19”:
JUST IN: The President plans to announce that every adult in the US will be eligible for a coronavirus vaccine by April 19, according to an administration official, instead of Biden's original deadline of May 1. https://t.co/giTyeySRfR

Coincidentally, this is right on track with former President Donald Trump’s prediction from last year that the Washington Post said was presented “without evidence”:

“I think he made a mistake with that statement,” Trump said Wednesday. “When he said it, I believe he was confused. I’m just telling you we’re ready to go.”
Trump then said a vaccine would be ready in weeks and swiftly made available, despite the fact that no one knows yet when sufficient data will be collected from clinical trials to show that one of the vaccines in late-stage trials is effective or safe.
Or, just maybe, President Trump “knew what he was talking about” and wasn’t too scared to say what the experts were telling him was possible even though they didn’t want that share publicly?
It seems like the guy who authorized Operation Warp Speed knew what he was talking about https://t.co/sn8jSOplQV
