Edits
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention suggested that hospital workers and nursing home personnel be the first individuals vaccinated.

From early 2020, more than seventy companies worldwide (with five or six operating primarily in the U.S.) began vaccine research. 28 different vaccines are being worked on and developed using the research provided by those companies.

The Kaiser Family Foundation conducts ongoing polling and analysis in a project called the KFF COVID-19 Vaccine Monitor. It considers demographics including age, race, political party, education, and insurance status when examining vaccine hesitancy. Another study they did showed that 27% of the gernal public was hesitant to get vaccinated, the number climbed to 29% in health careworkers.

In December 2020 a gallop poll found that 63% of Americans were willing to receive the Covid 19 vaccine.

In the U.S. there is roughly 33% of the population that is worried the vaccine might be made mandatory.

On August 31, 2020 the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released their outline for how the Covid-19 vaccine would be administered and distributed across the entire country.
