Consistency of the Vaccine data with CDC Vaccine site #43

Thanks for administering this data.

Currently, the data here differs from the CDC site: https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#vaccinations

Are there plans to insure consistency with the CDC vaccine distribution and administration data moving forward?

Hello @ricklawrence. There few reasons why the information might differ, mainly around lags in reporting and inclusion of non-residents. We hope in the following days lags from the holidays will disappear, and that will help reduce the difference. Also, not all States currently make available data about doses administered, so we do not expect US totals from CDC to match aggregation of our data at the moment.
