I’ve been following this policy debate, and I’m confused about something. I probably just don’t understand the details, but I’d love some clarity.

I believe that over 20 million doses of the vaccine have been shipped so far with something like 9 million doses being administered — a very low ratio public health experts uniformly call very disappointing.

So I’m not clear on why releasing more doses would be important when the doses that have been released so far haven’t yet been used.
