Um, working backwards, no. At least not in the US; I don't know where you are.

The US as a whole is running about 15% for both doses. 15, not 50.

Also, the shot is free, period, no one in the US ever has to pay to get it.

I don't have any data about vaccines expiring; it's definitely happening, and I'm sure that some places are trying alternative routes to avoid it, but there's no hard data about what percent of doses is being lost. In an operation of this size and scope, I'd be pretty astonished if there weren't a few percent loss.
