The White House rejected requests by states to send more doses of the COVID-19 vaccine.
According to the White House coronavirus response coordinator, there are plans to send additional staff to help with vaccinations, but no additional doses will be sent.
Michigan is one such state which has been calling for more vaccines, with its Democrat Gov. Gretchen Whitmer pressing Joe Biden for more doses due to the spike of COVID-19 cases in her state.
