    America's Poor Vaccine Strategy

    Join me in welcoming President Biden to the Hot Seat.   America is at war and the Defense Production Act is back in play. This time we're increasing our vaccination supplies with an aggressive 100-day plan.   With healthcare systems failing, we don't even have enough vaccines for our frontline workers. The disincentives in the system are slowing us down. NY has a $1m fine if you get vaccinated out of line.   We need to speed up our plan with a better strategy. Learn why Israel is #1 with its vaccine rollout plan.  Pharmacies will be front and center during this rollout. We need all hands on deck for last-mile delivery so Amazon and Lyft will be pitching in too. Read more at the techfinancier.com and follow me on Twitter @vijarkohli and LinkedIn.

The company has been losing market share for years and now needs to rebuild itself.  Also find out which major cloud providers acquired new deals in 2021.
