(Reuters) - The United States had administered 374,488,924 doses of COVID-19 vaccines in the country as of Saturday morning and distributed 450,175,825 doses, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said.

Those figures are up from the 373,516,809 vaccine doses the CDC said had gone into arms by Friday, out of 447,619,715 doses delivered.

The agency said 206,908,710 people had received at least one dose while 175,968,266 people were fully vaccinated as of 6:00 a.m. ET on Saturday.

The CDC tally includes two-dose vaccines from Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA) and Pfizer/BioNTech, as well as Johnson & Johnson (NYSE:JNJ)'s one-shot vaccine.

About 1.33 million people received an additional dose of either Pfizer (NYSE:PFE) or Moderna's vaccine since Aug. 13, when the U.S. authorized a third dose of the vaccines for people with compromised immune systems who are likely to have weaker protection from the two-dose regimens.

Latest comments

I strongly suggest that if any of you take the vaccine, to strongly consider J&J vaccine over any of the others. J&J is your traditional inert virus objected so your body can learn to fight it. The others are mrna vaccines, which can and has shown to be dangerous for a lot of people. mrna also typically needs decades to properly test and approve. At least do your research if youre going to be scared before you make a decision that you could regret for the next 20 years.
the vaccine does not work. Israel vaccinated their entire population and administered boosters. Now they are experiencing record breaking numbers of infected citizens.
I guess you missed the fine print. no one ever said you wouldn't catch covid after getting the vaccine. rather it significantly reduces the risk of fatality/serious illness.
awesome! this should be an end to it soon
lol
RIP to the sheep who took the experimental warp speed jab
Not sure if you’re asking me, but respiratory viruses are constantly mutating as a means of survival in response to natural host immunity. Remember that vaccines are a very recent development in human history but viruses have been evolving for millions of years. Most often, viral mutations aren’t very successful at evading host immunity so viruses have to throw a bunch of spit balls at the wall before one of them actually sticks. This is merely an evolutional attempt at reproduction and survival. Common cold viruses are good examples of this, mutating without any vaccine introduction at all. Seasonal influenza vaccines are simply a best-guess attempt at what virologists think will be the dominant strain in circulation. They’re wrong as often as they’re right.
"99% of the deaths are unvaccinated" Considering the vaccine has only been out since what late Jan, early Feb? Does "No Shid" explain that enough? Talk about an ignorant statement
Study this link, Sherlock Holmes. Taylor Johnson was referring to current death RATES, vaccinated vs. unvaccinated. That has nothing to do with the nominal death totals accumulated since the beginning of the pandemic. https://www.google.com/amp/s/publichealthinsider.com/2021/09/03/new-data-dashboard-tracks-covid-19-risk-for-unvaccinated-people-compared-to-vaccinated-people/amp/
