The FTC and the Pennsylvania Attorney General had alleged the merger would lead to TJU/Einstein controlling at least 60% of the inpatient GAC hospital services market in a portion of Philadelphia. Following the district court decision, the FTC quickly appealed to the Third Circuit Court of Appeals and filed an emergency motion for a stay pending appeal.

As of Wednesday in the state, 2.19 million vaccines had been distributed, of which 53% have been Moderna and 47% Pfizer. So far, the Janssen vaccine from Johnson & Johnson had not yet been administered in the state.
