States scale back vaccine orders as interest in shots wanes

FILE - In this May 6, 2021, file photo, Kendria Brown, a nurse with DC health, vaccinates a woman with the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine at The REACH at the Kennedy Center in Washington. From South Carolina to Washington, states are requesting the Biden administration send them only a fraction of what's been allocated to them.

More than 150 million Americans — about 57% of the adult population — have received at least one dose of vaccine, but government leaders from the Biden administration down to the city and county level are doing everything they can to persuade the rest of the country to get inoculated. In another sign of the burgeoning national surplus, Biden announced last week that his administrationof AstraZeneca doses with the world once it clears safety reviews.

Melaney Arnold, a spokeswoman for the Illinois Department of Public Health, said the state has five weeks’ worth of doses on hand. Last week, state officials for the first time requested fewer doses than allotted because of declining demand. The state plans to request just 9% of its allotted doses for everywhere but Chicago for next week.

Not everyone is dialing back. Maryland and Colorado are still ordering their full amount. So is New York City. The average number of daily shots in the nation’s largest city has dropped about 40% since peaking at more than 95,000 in mid-April, but city officials want a steady supply of doses to create more shots at doctor’s offices, neighborhood pharmacies and other small providers, hoping to appeal to people who have skipped mass vaccination sites.

Send the extras to Canada, India et al. The demand worldwide continues.

Sexy folks get poked for pandemic prevention. You should too.

I wonder how many people not getting the vaccine aren't anti-vaxx but have had covid and don't need it. They should be counting those who have had covid among the protected.

For once the US is making a high quality product and yet they’re refusing to export it. Make it make sense.

Then export them.

POTUS export...

Everyone in the Church of Covid has received their sacrament. 🙏

Start exporting POTUS.

The US hoards a large amount of vaccine that will not be needed for a short period of time. Third world countries have no vaccine available.

This pandemic is going to last for a long time when even those people where they have abundant supplies of vaccine, don't want to get vaccinated 😏

Seems like change of leadership and relaxation of lockdowns mean they don't need vaccines anymore.

Approve those 12-15 year olds US_FDA ! Let’s. Go.
