President Joe Biden said Thursday that federal authorities have purchased additional doses of Pfizer’s and Moderna’s COVID-19 vaccines, putting the government on track to have enough supply for 300 million Americans by summertime.

Biden made the remarks at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in Bethesda, Maryland, on Thursday, where he spoke about the nation’s vaccine stockpile, a fraught topic amid reports that demand is far outstripping supply.
