Covid-2019 - 2021-02-23

With no warning or explanation, the CDC has dumbed-down the way it reports state-level progress on vaccinations. There is no longer any distinction between first and second doses. Not only are we losing that critical information about potential herd immunity, but at the same time it exaggerates the inoculated share of each state's population, making the distribution roll-out look up to twice as good as it actually is.
