Hello, the North Dakota Department of Health has had 18 discarded doses, mostly due to the final dose(s) not being able to be used within the six-hour timeframe. The data and vaccine doses administered can be found on our vaccine dashboard<https://www.health.nd.gov/covid19vaccine/dashboard>.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
