There were shipping and reporting delays, which was why they were able to vaccinate only (a reported) 3,000. A lot more will be done starting Monday.

Of the 79,950 Pfizer doses that have arrived or are on the way, the shots are slated for 135 hospitals, 52 pharmacies and 57 local public health agencies. All of the doses have been given to hospital workers.

Nearly 3,000 health care workers have been vaccinated so far, although that number is likely higher due to reporting delays. Many facilities didn't get the vaccine until Friday.
