If Trump could send hospital ships to NYC, I have to believe Biden can mobilize MASH (? field hospitals or whatever they call them now) units to hot spots. Get every trained medic not deployed to key spots and start giving out shots.

This is under the assumption what I've read is accurate. 20+M vials have been deployed to the States, they have only inoculated approx 6+M. So it's not a supply issue (at least not right now) but a distribution, "last mile" issue.
