Approximately 1.5 million Americans were injected with a COVID-19 vaccine in the past 72 hours, officials said on morning shows on Sunday.

“Over the last 72 hours, 1.5 million vaccine doses have been inoculated. Even though there is a gap in reporting, that’s a quite an important number. That’s 500,000 a day,” said Dr. Moncef Slaoui, Operation Warp Speed’s chief scientific adviser.
