The federal government plans to make a shift in the way vaccine doses are allocated amongst states, allowing some governors to turn down doses they don't need or want, as President Joe Biden pushes to get at least one dose of the Covid-19 vaccine to 70 percent of adults by July 4.
Administration officials told governors on Tuesday that if a state doesn’t want all of its allocation, then the vaccines will go into a pool and be redistributed to other states in more need of additional doses, a senior administration official said. For weeks, some states, like West Virginia, have been reporting unused doses as demand wanes while others, like Michigan, have clamored for more.
