President Biden held a news conference on Wednesday to mark the end of the first year of his presidency. Here's a fact check of six of his claims.
Biden made at least three inaccurate claims during the extended proceedings, which he allowed to run for nearly two hours. He also made a claim about surprise medical billing in which he, at best, omitted key context; a claim about military history in which his meaning was unclear; and a claim about job creation that was accurate but could also have used some more contextual information. Here's a look at those six remarks.
Figures published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show that more than 3 million people in the US were fully vaccinated as of January 19, 2021, the day before Biden's inauguration, and more than 3.4 million were fully vaccinated as of his inauguration day.Biden and his team might have been relying on news reports on January 20, based on CDC data available at the time, that put the number at around 2 million.
