UPS CEO: We have delivered 36.5 million COVID-19 vaccines - Yahoo
In a little over a month, logistics giant UPS has delivered an impressive number of COVID-19 vaccines.
“It’s a very complicated delivery. But we are pleased with how we are performing,” UPS CEO Carol Tome told Yahoo Finance Live. “In fact, we have had about 225,000 shipments and about 36.5 million vaccines have been delivered by UPS. Our service levels are 99.99%.”
UPS’s first COVID-19 vaccine shipments in the U.S. began on Dec. 13 with the Pfizer-BioNTech shot. Deliveries of the shot in the European Union commenced on Dec. 26. Rival FedEx also began shipping COVID-19 vaccines around that time, too.
