COVID vaccine distribution ‘the most complex logistical challenge since World War II’

December 6, 2020

Two COVID-19 vaccines are expected to receive federal approval in the U.S. within a matter of weeks. With 60% of Americans claiming they will get the immunization, according to Pew Research, demand will be high for the 70 million doses expected to be available by year’s end.

Transport of the vaccine comes at a less than ideal time. Capacity is already tight. Winter weather and snowy and icy driving conditions are gripping parts of the country, and with public outcry for a coronavirus cure growing louder by the day, Boyle Transportation Co-President Andrew Boyle called vaccine distribution the “most complex logistical challenge since World War II.”
