"Missing the Point — How Primary Care Can Overcome Covid-19 Vaccine “Hesitancy”"

The New England Journal of Medicine

By the end of April 2021, the United States had fully vaccinated just under a third of its popu-lation against Covid-19. Initial federal and state vaccination strategies focused on hospitals, mass-vaccination centers, and re-tail pharmacies, quickly vaccinating health care workers and residents of  long-term  care  facilities  who  were at high risk for Covid-19. Dif-ficult  cold-storage  requirements,  scarce  supply,  and  urgency  may  have justified strategies that large-ly bypassed the outpatient practic-es normally responsible for most vaccinations.
