GOTTLIEB: Well, look, the administration set a stretch goal and they re going to miss it by a little. I think as a practical matter, from a public health standpoint, it s not going to have an impact whether we hit 68% or 70%. The reality is we are vaccinating a large portion of the American population. We have to remember where we started and where we are right now. It took us a full month to vaccinate, to fully vaccinate the 1.34 million residents of nursing homes. In the n
stanley cup ext five months, we vaccinated 300 million people. We delivered 300 million vaccines. So it s a substantial achievement. I think we need to think about where we go next. Right now, we are on sort of 1.0 in terms of making vaccine accessible. And the goal was to open up mass vaccination sites, make it accessible in the community.

As Americans age, that demographic change is also impacting the workforce, with a new Pew Research Center analysis finding that 1 in 5 people over 65 are still working, a twofold jump from the 1980s.That translates into 11 million senior citizens who remain in the workforce, which by sheer numbers is quadruple the figure in the mid-1980s, Pew said. And it s a trend that s expected to continue, with Americans over 65 projected to be one of the few demographic groups with rising labor force participation over the next decade, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.Aside from giving a boost to the economy, older Americans who continue to work are likely helping their own financial situations as well. That s because they re able to save more money and delay retirement, which requires people to draw down their savings, noted Pew senior researcher Richard Fry. But there could also be a downside to the trend, given that it could reflect the end of traditional pensions and the inadequacy of some workers retirement savings. It

The Baton Rouge Advocate reported that the baby s test results are pending.
