Psaki has nothing to say on whether Biden will extend 100-day mask challenge

With just over 50 percent of Americans who have received at least one vaccine, press secretary Jen Psaki punted a question on whether the White House would extend its call for Americans to mask up beyond 100 days. 

"He is working and in discussions with our health and medical experts about what we need to do to get the pandemic under control, including providing clear guidance to the American public about what the benefits are of being vaccinated, including getting into communities and meeting people where they are. So I don't have any update on that at this point in time," the press secretary said.   President Biden when he first assumed office instituted a 100-day mask challenge to contain the spread of coronavirus. But that deadline is now fast approaching - a week away. The U.S. is currently seeing a 7-day average of just under 63,000 cases identified per day, down from about 250,000 daily during the January peak.
