IN, PR, UT and WY did not report dose increases today. While over 2 million doses were reported yesterday, the likely number of doses actually administered yesterday is between 1.3 and 1.7 million, based on recent trends.
North Dakota approaches a new record on the dashboard for percent of shots used — 96.35%. The 7-day average doses reported is 1.44 million/day. Expect more shipments tomorrow/Tuesday and for the percentage of shots used to go down.
In 18 days, we are now 16.46% of the way to President Biden's new goal of 150 million shots in 100 days. #VaccinateAmerica

Note that this does not necessarily mean 2 million vaccinations were given yesterday. Some states did not report certain days this past week and may be reporting backlogs (states have 72 hours to report to immunization systems). This graph shows the doses by date administered.
North Dakota approaches a new record on the dashboard for percent of shots used — 91.7%. The 7-day average doses reported is 1.35 million/day. As FEMA and pharmacy partnerships ramp up, the next weeks will be critical for vaccine distribution.

West Virginia leads the nation with the percentage of shots used — 88.8%. Seems that the "snow effect" has not been as large as we originally thought, but we need a few more days of data to be sure. Image
The latest dashboard view allows you to compare doses administered by the day the shot was given vs. when it was reported. There is also data on initiating vaccination and completing vaccination. Long-term care data and general upgrades to come.

Vaccines don't save lives, vaccinations do. The Trump administration's plan to get vaccines in to the arms of Americans has largely failed, with now only 28.4% of the distributed doses administered. Here I propose my vaccination plan, leveraging key locations for vaccination. Image
First, my initial tweet from over the weekend drawing attention to the issue:
Let's first identify the problem. Operation Warp Speed has excelled at producing a vaccine and accelerating its development, but it's the "last mile" problem that has failed. Underfunded health departments and lack of a federal plan has inhibited rapid vaccinations. Image

Many valuable viewpoints and papers published in @AnnalsofIM today and yesterday. First, modeling from @ADPaltiel, @jasonlschwartz and Amy Zheng makes the case for a single-dose regimen assuming a 75% efficacy to avert the same number of infections as 2.
acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/m2…
Next, Barnabas and Wald argue for the consideration of a single-dose regimen in order to:
- Accelerate pandemic control
- Distribute the scarce commodity
- Mitigate adverse events

This is despite evidence of data from clinical trials.
acpjournals.org/doi/10.7326/M2…
Finally, @AshTuite, @SalomonJA and colleagues suggests a more dynamic strategy of reserving second doses: holding 10% of the supply for second doses during the first 3 weeks, 90% during each of the next 3 weeks, and 50% thereafter.

Last week, the American College Health Association (@ACHA_Tweets) published new recommendations for colleges to reopen in the spring. @ColleenFlahert1's reporting is here — let's take a look at the highlights.

In lessons learned from the fall, ACHA emphasizes "Multilayered mitigation strategies with universal masking, physical distancing … accompanied by a coordinated public health strategy of robust testing, and contact tracing."

On mental health: "Now more than ever the need to
provide a menu of mental health and wellness services is
vitally important.…Students often want “just in time”
services that are timely, convenient, and accessible. "

Relying on CVS and Walgreens as cornerstones of a vaccine rollout plan is like using a spigot at a camping site to put out a forest fire. We need to be erecting mass vaccination sites, strategically placed across the country. In the coming days I'll suggest some possibilities.
A key part of geography is studying the impacts of why places are located where they are. When we discuss vaccine rollout, we need to commit to equity and accessibility — not just rural and urban, but racial and economic equity as well. We need large sites and small sites.
I'm also not suggesting that one option/place/solution will work for the entire country. However, we must use spatial analysis to figure out what combination of locations would result in the greatest impact (in this case, servicing the greatest number of people).
