Pace of vaccinations may be slowing; 'Joints for Jabs' a hit in DC; Ted Nugent admits 'pandemic is real': Live COVID-19 updates John Bacon, USA TODAY The pace of vaccinations in the United States may be slowing down as vaccine hesitancy takes hold. About 1.8 million vaccination jabs were reported Tuesday, the lowest one-day number in two weeks. Some of the decline could be attributed to availability, dinged by a pause in Johnson & Johnson doses. But demand has softened at some vaccinations sites, even as vaccine availability has been opened up to every U.S. adult. About 1 in 4 Americans say they might decline vaccination.
