UNITED STATES VACCINES PROJECTIONS RUNING BEHIND SCHEDULE

The United States is runing behind schedule on it projection on vaccination process for it citizen. On Christmas even just over a million vaccination process have been achieved. This means only around a million people in the U.S. have received their first dose of the coronavirus vaccines, a far cry from the federal government's goal of inoculating 20 million Americans by the end of the year.

Now that two Covid-19 vaccines have been approved for emergency use, the biggest hurdle to ending the pandemic in the U.S. is now how to get the doses to the roughly 331 million Americans across the country. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention confirmed a figure around 1,008,025 shots had been administered as of yesterday, Wednesday 23rd December 2020.

That's roughly 19 million doses shy of earlier projections for December and 330!million shy of the entire population. These leaves public officials a little more than a week about 8 days to try to close that gap of the earlier projections. The U.S. would need to vaccinate more than 2.1 million people on a daily basis through Dec. 31 to meet its goal. Two vaccines from Pfizer and Moderna  have been authorized for use by the Food and Drug Administration, and the U.S. has shipped a total of 9,465,725 doses across the nation, according to CDC data.

These translate that most of American vaccines made available for the citizens are still sitting on ice in there various mobile storage tanks around the country. Leaving masses of American continually vulnerable to the deadly disease and the subsequent surge in the second wave of the corona virus spread which has continue to rise this few weeks of yeluyide season.

The vaccines are seen by investors and policymakers as a solution to get the U.S. economy back on track as the pandemic wreaks havoc on every state, overwhelms hospitals and upends businesses. The U.S. has the worst outbreak in the world, with more than 18.2 million cases and at least 322,849 deaths, according to data compiled by Johns Hopkins University.

The bottom line is that, if the US still facing hurdles on the vaccination process, what is the fate of the rest of the world whose infection figures keep raking up by the day. Tallies in Europe, Asia and the vulnerable African continent keeps raking up in numbers with no view of vaccination anytime soon
