Those figures are up from the 486,574,475 vaccine doses the CDC said had gone into arms by Tuesday out of 597,270,245 doses delivered.
The agency said 239,975,167 people had received at least one dose, while 202,845,886 people are fully vaccinated as of 6:00 a.m. ET on Wednesday.
The CDC tally includes two-dose vaccines from Moderna and Pfizer/BioNTech, as well as Johnson & Johnson’s one-shot vaccine.
About 56.1 million people have received a booster dose of either Pfizer, Moderna or J&J’s COVID-19 vaccine. Booster doses from Moderna and Johnson & Johnson were authorized by the U.S. health regulator on Oct. 20.
