Here is out US map of the % of doses that have been delivered than have been used. There are still BIG disparities in this rate. We are investigating why -- especially California -- and hope to have more to share there ASAP. bloomberg.com/graphics/covid…
⚠️CDC updated today -- first time on the weekend IIRC -- which is great. It will also reduce Monday lag/bump. (As usual, many states did not -- but we get the CDC number in their place.)
⚠️The CDC has switched from reporting doses SHIPPED to doses DELIVERED. This means that our map and table now reflect what CDC says state have within their borders.
This ends the lag of doses being shipped but in transit that had made % used seem lower.
We heard a LOT from states (understandably) about the old method. CDC has told us they were hearing the same, and wanted to reflect reality on the ground as best they could.
So if you are complaining about your state, you are doing it with better data now.
1) Added CDC data 2) Used state counts when ahead of CDC 3) Made some BIG updates to the map + table -- you can see doses been shipped to states + what % of doses have been used
🇺🇸Some good-ish U.S. news -- pace picking up slightly 2.66M vacc shots done (+300k vs y'day, vs 200k/day average), likely getting out of some holiday slump/lag.
The pace of vaccinations in the U.S. is going at about 200k/day, on average. This is...not as fast as expected. The U.S. will fall very, very far short of its 20M doses by end of 2020 goal, by our analysis:
