Washington, DC (CNN) Republican Sen. Mitt Romney on Friday warned the process of distributing vaccines is "falling behind" in a statement blasting the plan for getting Americans vaccinated, as the critical vaccination roll out process lags. "That comprehensive vaccination plans have not been developed at the federal level and sent to the states as models is as incomprehensible as it is inexcusable," Romney, who represents Utah, said in a statement Friday. Romney said the plan to rely on hospitals and pharmacies that are already overburdened was "unrealistic." Romney's statement comes as the federal government's Operation Warp Speed had promised that 20 million doses would be administered before January 1. But unlike the development of the vaccines, the vaccination process itself is falling behind.
