- However, the Baltimore facility has not yet been authorized by the FDA. A federal health official told Reuters last week that none of the plant's vaccine doses have been used in the vaccination campaigns so far.
- According to the CDC data, California is the primary recipient of the J&J vaccine, followed by Texas and Florida.
- California's vaccine allocation is down by about 88%, with the state set to receive 67,600 doses next week.
- A California health official said that the number would go down further in the week starting April 18, with only 22,400 doses of the J&J vaccine allocated to the state.
- J&J has reiterated that it expected to deliver 100 million doses to the U.S. government by the end of May.
