Winter storms causing delays in COVID-19 vaccine shipments, CDC says

The U.S. is expecting "widespread" delays in COVID-19 vaccine shipments because of severe winter storms, a CDC spokesperson told Politico Feb. 16.

Two FedEx facilities that multiple states rely on for vaccine distribution — located in Memphis, Tenn., and Louisville., Ky. — have been affected by the storms, and officials expect delays to continue for several days, Politico reported.
