Where do you get your info? There are about 310 million US residents. When the JNJ vaccine gets approved and at the moment it looks good, they will produce one BILLION doses by year end. They have been manufacturing vaccine since before their trial data was even finished as their confidence in the technology they used is extremely high. Couple that with Pfizer and Moderna and others coming on line by summer there will be more than enough for the US and other countries. The issue currently is just what are the hospitals, etc. doing with doses that have been unfrozen but no recipients. Data shows in excess of 25 million doses shipped, only a bit over half have been utilized.
