1:06Now PlayingMore than a week after winter weather upended America’s vaccination push, about 1 in 5 states are still trying to regain momentum in the Covid-19 vaccination push.
In 10 states, the seven-day average of new doses is lower than it was two weeks earlier, according to the Bloomberg Vaccine Tracker. Among the worst, Indiana was off 43% and Mississippi was set back 42%. Arkansas and Texas were down 41% each.
The slump is unlikely to last, especially because data compiled by Bloomberg show the U.S. will have enough shots to fully vaccinate 130 million Americans by the end of March. While there have also been distribution-related hurdles, limited supply has been the ultimate impediment to a faster rollout.
Still, the delay stings at a time when authorities are racing to head off the circulation of faster-spreading Covid-19 variants.
