Across the country, millions of Americans are missing appointments for their second COVID-19 vaccine dose.
According to the CDC, more than five million people, or about 8%, had missed their second Pfizer or Moderna doses as of early April. According to the CDC, “if a person received the two doses from different reporting entities, those two doses may not have been linked together.” The CDC said the second shot is critical in helping protect people from the virus.
