Original title: US Media
Overseas Network, December 30 The US media reported that the latest report shows that the US government’s new crown vaccine distribution plan must be drastic; If it continues at the current rate, it will take about ten years to complete the job of vaccinating enough Americans and controlling the new corona epidemic.
According to NBC News on the 30th, the original goal of the US government was to ensure that 80% of the country’s 330.7 million people can complete vaccination work by June 2021. Digital modeling shows that for To achieve this goal, more than 3 million Americans will need to get vaccinated every day. However, federal and state data show that so far, only about 2 million people have completed the first dose of vaccination, most of whom are front-line medical workers and residents of some nursing homes.
Scott Gottlieb, who served as director of the US Food and Drug Administration, said the United States will not be able to complete the 20 million doses of vaccination promised by the end of 2021. Gottlieb criticized that more than three weeks have passed. since the vaccine was approved, and some states only began vaccination work in nursing homes on Monday (28). Additionally, Gottlieb said that once people start getting the first dose of the vaccine, “we will soon see the impact of the vaccine on the most vulnerable people.” Gottlieb called it “partially protective after the first dose of vaccination,” but “we do not know exactly the strength and duration of this protection.”
Although the White House strongly denied the delay in vaccination capacity, and the vaccine program spokesman even blamed it on the “delay in statistics and vaccination,” the White House “testing czar” Brett Giroir, told the media that the US government’s goal of vaccinating 20 million people before the new year cannot be achieved. Girol said: “We want to do it faster. I hope everyone gets vaccinated now. But we can only arrange another 30 million doses of vaccine in January 2021 and another 50 million doses in February 2021.” This will rapidly increase the impact of vaccines, especially in our vulnerable communities. “
For months, the current US government has underestimated the danger of the new corona epidemic. According to data from Johns Hopkins University, at approximately 7:30 AM on December 30, Beijing time, the virus has infected more than 19.49 million Americans, with a total of 19,496,348 confirmed cases; it has taken more than 337,000 Americans. s life. The White House promised in September that it would ship 100 million doses of vaccine before the end of 2020. But in December, when the first batch of drugs was delivered, the vaccine project leader lowered this forecast to 20 million. This measure aroused public condemnation. Efforts to distribute and administer this vaccine have not made the progress they should have, and the White House “should be held accountable.” (Hou Xingchuan Overseas Network)
