The information above and in the spreadsheets below reflects the data entered by vaccine providers into the federal Vaccine Administration Management System (VAMS) database. Vaccine providers are required to log specific information about each vaccine they administer within 24 hours. As indicated in the spreadsheets below, several hospitals and health care facilities receive their vaccine shipments each week directly from the federal government; the shipments do not come to DHEC first.
Key points about vaccine allocation data include:
The data within these spreadsheets are approximate and provisional. VAMS and Tiberius are new federal reporting databases, and as vaccine providers become more familiar with them, the accuracy of the data is expected to improve.
Current vaccine inventory is based on five doses per vial for Pfizer and 10 doses per vial for Moderna, however, extra amounts of vaccine in some vials allows providers to pull six or seven shots of Pfizer from a single vial or 11 shots from a single Moderna vial.
The majority of the state's Moderna vaccine doses are currently allocated to the CDC’s Long-Term Care Program, which is a federal partnership between Walgreens and CVS pharmacies. These pharmacies are holding vaccination clinics at every long-term care facility in South Carolina, ensuring those most vulnerable to COVID-19 and the workers who care from them are prioritized for COVID-19 vaccine.
CVS and Walgreens began holding vaccine clinics at these facilities the week of December 28 and will continue to hold them until every facility resident and staff who wants vaccine receives both doses. Currently, only the Moderna vaccine is being used for this vaccination effort.
States have a limited role in this federal LTC Program, other than providing doses of vaccine. Data and information about this program are recorded in a federal database called Tiberius; this information, as in the spreadsheets below, isn’t managed by DHEC.
