Has anyone figured out what's happening to leftover doses of Pfizer and Moderna at the end of the day? I fear a lot are getting thrown away instead of plunged into the nearest willing arm.

In SoCal most vaccination sites have neither a standby line nor a public protocol for what they do with these doses. I assume volunteers and friends of the staff are getting some, but how long can that have lasted? So... What's happening?

There was a cite in Encino that did have a standby line for doses that would otherwise get thrown away and they had none left occasionally but would regularly have 15 or 20 doses left that would otherwise go to waste. And it was a small site.
If every site is throwing five or 10 doses away every day that adds up quickly. Maybe something better is happening but the lack of transparency makes me fear the worst.
