ALBANY â Next weekâs federal deliveries of the COVID-19 vaccine are expected to face additional national delays because of persisting snow storms, ice and frigid temperatures impacting several U.S. states, officials said Friday. Nearly all of the stateâs coronavirus vaccine doses â up to about 315,000 each week â for the 10th week of distribution are delayed because of ongoing winter storms. The shipments were originally scheduled to arrive to localities, pharmacies, community-based Federally Qualified Health Centers and other sites between Feb. 12 and 21. âThe snow has had an effect on distribution of vaccines across the country,â Gov. Andrew Cuomo said Friday afternoon during a briefing in the state Capitol. âThe White House made it clear that the storms affected many of the transport hubs.â
