Texas Governor says in a December 8th interview that the state will be ready once the Pfizer vaccine for Covid-19 is approved.
The state conducted a dry run earlier this year. Once approved, the state should be able to administer the first 100,000 doses of the Covid-19 vaccine within two days of the vaccine approval.
In addition, the state plans to follow up with phone calls, email reminders, and text messages just to ensure the residents get the essential second dosage.

Trump used the event to take credit for the rapid production of coronavirus vaccines as part of “Operation Warp Speed,” his administration’s initiative to produce and deliver millions of vaccines to the American people to end the coronavirus pandemic. He said the vaccines produced by the initiative “will end the pandemic.”
