I don't think Dan will manage to close that gap, the combination of lockdown and vaccinations has to start having an impact sooner or later

We are really accelerating now and are passing many other countries.

The problem in the USA isn't supply, it's vaccine hesitancy.

Anyone over 12 can pretty much walk into a Walgreens and get a shot, no problems but a lot of them still won't.

Not really. I posted this last Wednesday, in response to a question from Stui:

I think Stui agreed.

I did indeed.

In reference to Davids question about Vaccination rates, nice little article here.

One of the graphs showing different countries shows how the USA accelerated out of the blocks but tailed right off

That - and the presence of some actual vaccine. I believe the TGA has an advisory against not injecting air.

Yet none of the people who’ve died this year were fully vaccinated and the vast majority had vaccines available to them since about March…

The US and nearly every other country worldwide shows that you could have millions of doses but there will be plenty of well justified hesitancy.

Only when it hits people hard by being locked down do they get over that hesitancy.

No lockdowns and more vaccines available and I’d bet we’d have a far lower rate of vaccination than we do now.
