"The federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said about 10.6 million people have received at least one dose of a Covid-19 vaccine, and that about 1.6 million people had been fully vaccinated. That is far short of the goal federal officials set to give at least 20 million people their first shots before the end of 2020.
The federal government said Friday that it had delivered about 31.2 million doses to states, territories and federal agencies. The shipments, which came after a record-setting race to develop, study and approve a vaccine, have marked a turning point in the pandemic at a time when deaths and cases continue to set records.
But federal health officials recently acknowledged that the vaccine rollout had had a slower-than-expected start and said they did not have a clear understanding as to why only a portion of the doses shipped across the nation had made it into arms."

Every site that tracks Covid Cases and deaths have slightly different numbers. The site below says that we now have over 400,000 deaths. The US has a little over 4% of the world's population but almost 20% of total deaths and over 25% of new cases and total cases. Well played, America.
Oh, well, this too shall pass. Eventually
