Vaccine distribution by week in Maryland, Howard County and Carroll County:


My Notes:

The COVID-19 increases remain concerning. Rises in new cases, people hospitalized, total beds in use and positivity rates shows we are far from over this pandemic yet.

Seeing the number of vaccines distributed continue to rise across the state is a good thing. Hopefully these number start to rise even more significantly going forward.

The number of vaccines distributed in Howard County and Carroll County seem flat. I would bet this is due to limited supply. I really hope to see the local number of vaccines distributed rise above what we have seen over the past three or four weeks.
