U.S. COVID-19 vaccine supplies strain to meet wider eligibility, second dosesScattered shortages of COVID-19 vaccines persisted on Saturday under pressure from growing demand, as previously inoculated Americans returned for their required second shots and millions of newly eligible people scrambled to get their first. I would have thought distribution would be carried on through your primary. instead people are being forced to jump from site to site, competing for an appointment. Should a major focus be on a state like California as a test bed. TRUMPS BIG LIE! No Vaccine Reserve, WTF! So, did the corrupt Trump administration purposely drain the swamp so Dems would inherit a nationwide shortage of vaccines creating a catastrophe? If mutation from the UK causes skyrocketing cases in US, death pool will be unimaginable Eligibility...? Man this matter of life and death..!
