China News Service, January 27th. According to a comprehensive report from Johns Hopkins University in the United States, as of 7:30 on January 27, Beijing time, the cumulative number of confirmed cases of new crown in the United States has exceeded 25.42 million. 424,000 people died from the new crown.

At present, the shortage of vaccine supplies in many parts of the United States has led to suspension of appointments or closure of vaccination sites.

　　According to reports, in the past two weeks, the number of new confirmed cases and deaths per day in the United States has dropped significantly, but they are still high.

Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases of the United States, pointed out, “This should be because the epidemic has reached its peak naturally, and it is not because the vaccine is working.”

　　Fauci warned, "We can't be complacent and think that the epidemic seems to be improving and we can relax." He said that although vaccines are still effective against mutated viruses reported in the United Kingdom and South Africa, "as the virus evolves," scientists " A plan to upgrade the vaccine has been launched.

　　Jeffrey Shaman, an epidemiologist at Columbia University in the United States, also pointed out that if the epidemic is to be eased, the only way is to have enough people with antibodies, including people who have recovered after being infected with the virus, and people who have received new crown vaccination. .

On January 4, 2021 local time, New York, USA, nurse Sandra Lindsay received the second shot of the new crown virus vaccine at the Long Island Jewish Hospital.

　　However, due to the shortage of vaccines across the United States, the number of vaccines allocated by each state cannot meet the original plan, and many places have suspended vaccine appointments or closed vaccination sites.

　　New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy said on the 26th that they need more doses of the new crown vaccine to achieve a plan to vaccinate 70% of the state's population within 6 months.

However, Murphy said that due to lack of vaccine supply, the large-scale vaccination site in Meadowlands in the state has been temporarily closed that day.

He said, "The current constraint is supply."

　　On the same day, New York Mayor Bill de Blasio also said, “We have almost no vaccines to supply to the people.” “Now we need hundreds of thousands of doses of vaccines every week.” Mississippi health officials also said a few days ago that the state’s vaccines Will run out soon.

　　In addition, Fairfax, Virginia, announced on the 25th that it would reduce the distribution of vaccines to medical institutions across the country, which directly led to the state's Inova hospital system having to cancel all appointments for the first dose after the 26th.

　　The chairperson of the Fairfax County Commission stated that the federal government provides Virginia with about 100,000 doses of vaccine every week, and Fairfax County gets about 22,000 doses. However, the county can vaccinate 168,000 people last week, and the demand far exceeds the supply.
