Just three weeks ago, the president said that all American adults would be able to receive a vaccine by the end of July. 

He has now pushed that date forward. "That's progress," he said.

This updated timeline comes as a result of a new partnership between Johnson & Johnson and Merck which is expected to increase Johnson & Johnson's vaccine production significantly. 

Meanwhile, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has also made a promise regarding when Canadians will be able to receive their COVID-19 vaccinations. 

Trudeau says that every Canadian who wants a vaccine will be able to get one by September. 

He has reiterated several times that the country is on track to make that happen.
