President Joe Biden made quite the numerical error during a speech, as he told listeners 350 million Americans had already been vaccinated.
According to the latest census, released in April this year, the entire population of the United States is 331 million.
“This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated. So we have to get more people vaccinated,” he said. Mr Biden paused briefly to check his notes, saying: “Well over – what’s the number again, I’ll remind myself – 350 million Americans have already been vaccinated. They’re doing fine.”
