(CNN) Americans could soon see milestones like a full return to in-person classrooms now that Covid-19 vaccinations are open to young teens, the director of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said. About 45% of US adults are fully vaccinated against Covid-19, according to data published Wednesday by the CDC. And Walensky predicted that "very soon" the CDC could be lifting indoor mask mandates for vaccinated people. I urge all parents to call their pediatrician to learn more about how to get their children and teens vaccinated." And though Johnson & Johnson came under scrutiny over rare blood clots linked to the vaccine, data from the CDC also shows that its benefits outweigh its risks.
