Evers calls lack of 2nd vaccine doses 'slap in the face'

Evers said Friday that Vice President Mike Pence and U.S. Health Secretary Alex Azar promised governors earlier this week that the Trump administration would release vaccine it was holding in reserve to speed inoculations.

But word broke Friday that the reserve was already exhausted when those promises were made.

Evers said it's a “slap in the face” to the people of Wisconsin.

Evers has been taking pointed criticism from Republicans over the slow pace of Wisconsin's vaccine rollout.
