The U.S. vaccination campaign has regained the momentum lost after severe winter weather in mid-February led to appointment cancellations, posting three consecutive days of two million shots or more since Friday.
Before the storms, the U.S. had a seven-day average of 1.6 million daily vaccine doses or more distributed for 10 straight days. The impact showed in the vaccination data starting Feb. 20, lowering the seven-day average to 1.3 million to 1.4 million doses daily for eight days.
