Why ARE we falling at the final hurdle? Warp Speed chief admits just 2.6m Americans have been vaccinated instead of 20m target - DESPITE 12m doses sitting in refrigerators across the states
The US has only vaccinated a total of 2.6 million people, new CDC data shows - despite promising to give 20 million people their first doses by the end of 2020
So 461,982 shots, or 230,000 a day have been given since December 24
More than 12 million doses have been shipped to states, who are responsible for their own roll-out but administration is going slowly
Operation Warp Speed Chief Dr Moncef Slaoui admitted the rollout should be better on Wednesday, but offered little explanation
