The U.S. recorded over 3,200 deaths from COVID-19 Wednesday, even as new cases and hospitalizations remained on the decline. President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are taking part in a White House event today to mark the 50 millionth shot of a coronavirus vaccine under their administration — the halfway point in Biden’s promise to deliver 100 million shots in his first 100 days. Nearly 14% of the U.S. population has now received at least one dose.
