All of the still-living former US presidents, minus President Trump, have filmed a public service message in which they praise the coronavirus vaccine, urge all Americans to get vaccinated as soon as possible -- and are shown with rolled-up sleeves getting vaccinated themselves in the ad. One of the reasons that President Trump, the only member of the group of former presidents who's also actually gotten COVID-19, is not shown in the ad is because he already received his coronavirus vaccine quietly, reportedly before he left the White House in January.
Bloomberg's vaccine tracker shows that, through Thursday, 95.7 million coronavirus vaccine doses have been administered in the US, at a cadence of 2.17 million doses per day on average. Things like the ad with former presidents getting vaccinated may help improve those numbers (and you can check out the ad below). But there's still a significant amount of so-called "vaccine hesitancy" that has to be dealt with if the US has any hope of achieving widespread enough vaccinations to bring us to herd immunity against the coronavirus.
