The States’ new president has pledged to boost the country’s rollout of the vaccines while criticizing operation speed by the last governance.  

President Biden stated that it has been a ‘dismal failure so far.’ Also, he is committed to commanding 100 million vaccines doses delivered within 100 days of his governance.

The overall progress of vaccination rollout has been slow so far. 

Missed the initial target

On the 20th of January, when Mr Joe Biden became the President an approximate of 16.5 million vaccines were distributed in the States. The official statistics stated this number. 

If you take a look at the countries doing vaccination of their citizens, the US is fourth on the list. Israel, UAE, and the UK are on top of the list in doses per 100 people. 

However, the States fell notably short of the Trump presidency’s target to vaccinate 20 million people by 2020. The numbers of vaccine delivered were a few less than a three million till the 31st of December. 

Moncef Salaoui stated at the time that, they are aware that it should have been better, and they are working hard to make it better. Moncef had been leading the vaccine rollout plan set by the government. 

Mr Salaoui has since then submitted his resignation at the request made by President Biden. 

Vaccination for the coronavirus has been faster since the beginning of the year. It has been more than double as compared to the first week of January. 

However, the States is still off the track. It needs to administer around a million doses each day to achieve the target set under Mr Biden’s presidency. 

What are the reasons for a slow start?

The health system of the States is quite complex. A diversity of services run by diverse providers in each state. These providers report to state or local officials, but they as well operate individually. 

This turns out to be testing when it comes to coordination in trying to supplies at local vaccination centres. 

There are two vaccines approved in the US, for vaccination- Pfrizer/BioNTech and Moderna. These vaccines are to be held in ultra-cold temperatures, which has added in further delay in distribution. 

The uneven distribution of vaccines in each state has also risen an issue of making the process of vaccination slow. For instance, as of the 20th of January, Alaska had given out more than 9000 doses per person while Alabama had got just 3000.
