Georgia Department of Public Health Commissioner Dr. Kathleen Toomey addresses issues experienced in the distribution of the COVID-19 vaccine in Georgia, during a press conference at the state Capitol.

Georgia officials battling the COVID-19 pandemic are hoping for a shot in the arm to the state’s vaccine rollout when President-elect Joe Biden takes office on Wednesday.

COVID-19 vaccine shipments to Georgia are currently hovering around 80,000 per week, far short of the millions of doses needed for the state to achieve herd immunity, said Georgia Public Health Commissioner Dr. Kathleen Toomey.
