> That streaming wasn't rolled out instantly. It took years of building network infrastructure to get to this point. In its inception yes, because that was new. It's much much quicker now and certainly far quicker than 9 months. Vaccinating people is not new and the technology to assist in making that process smooth is also not new. What's new is the restrictions upon which the vaccine can be stored at certain temps and the scale at which they can produce the vaccines. Neither of which are really logistical problems, at least not in the areas they're currently falling short on. Which brings me to: > the vaccine requires building a minus-80-degree cold chain. That's... not a trivial task. That's not where it's failing though. They knew that part well ahead of time and knew where to distribute them. The failure is occurring at other junctions along the way. In fact at Stanford, one of the biggest issues was a software algorithm (https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/stanford-apologizes-doctors-after-protests-erupt-over-botched-vaccine-rollout-n1251777 https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/stanford-apologizes-doc...)
