administration hoped to have, in the arms of americans, by 2020. in fact, only 25% of the available doses have actually been administered. republican senator, mitt romney, of utah, blames the slow rollout on the lack of strategy at the federal level for distributing the vaccine. and in a statement today, senator romney said quote, the current program is woefully behind, despite the fact that it encompasses the two easiest populations to vaccinate. front-line workers and long- term care residents. unless new strategies and plans are undertaken, the deadly delays may be compounded as broader and more complex populations are added. volunteers received the placebo in the pfizer, covid-19 vaccine trial, will be given the opportunity to be vaccinated. pfizer, it is partner, biotech, say, two doses will be reserved for them, with the first to be made available, by march 1st. now the fda, and a panel of outdoor advisors expressed concerns about the plan, saying they wanted volunteers to
