The State of California became the worst of the 50 states in distributing its share of coronavirus vaccines on Thursday, as other states picked up their pace.

Thursday’s update to Bloomberg’s vaccine tracker shows that the national rate increased from 38.8% last week to 48.6% this week. Last week’s 50th-ranked state was Alabama, which saw its usage rate jump from 21.2% to 41.1% week-over-week. For reference, California was ranked 49th last week.

It’s already being noted in various states and via different hospitals...they aren’t getting people to show up.
Maybe they should offer a $1,400 check if you show up and get both shots (cynically spoken of course).
Name something California isn’t worst at.
