Unfortunately our current covid 19 situation is inextricably linked to failure of federal government to act expeditiously as well as spread risk by contracting vaccines widely in the event of problems with any one
vaccine given the acknowledged short time frame of their development. They had the opportunity for Pfizer in July 2020 and failed to place an order until November 2020 when it was clear Astra Zeneca had several issues . Other countries stepped up to place orders and we lost timely product delivery.
