Baker has said the Commonwealth has the ability to administer far more doses of the vaccine than it is receiving.

The Biden-Harris administration informed Massachusetts it would receive 170,000 doses this week, up from 150,000 last week, which was up from 145,00 doses the week before that.

President Joe Biden has challenged all states to make the vaccine available to all residents, regardless of age, by May.
