Facebook and Twitter are reportedly going to help the White House get the word out about COVID-19 vaccine eligibility. Sarah Tew/CNET The White House has reportedly enlisted the aid of social media to promote information about vaccine eligibility. The Biden administration has partnered with Facebook and Twitter in a media blitz to promote President Joe Biden's new deadline for states to make all US residents 16 and older eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine, Axios reported Sunday. Biden had originally tasked states with opening eligibility to all adults by May 1 but later revised that target to April 19. The media push comes amid word that half of all adults in the US have received at least one COVID-19 vaccine shot. Across the country, nearly 130 million people 18 or older have received at least one dose of a vaccine, or 50.4% of the total adult population, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported. The White House, Facebook and Twitter didn't immediately respond to requests for comment.
