Maryland health department using county ‘compliance’ and ‘efficiency’ to allocate COVID vaccine doses

Noting that the county has a ready record of at the very least 1,500 older adults ready to get vaccinated, Polsky stated in an interview that if the allotment had been primarily based on per capita issues alone, Calvert would get 1,110 doses per week. As an alternative, it bought as few as 500 for the week, with little rationalization as to the place additional doses went as an alternative.
