The vaccine rollout, from what I've read is actually...fine. We're not doing terrific at it, but the supply constraint is such that we are probably going to run out of vaccines soon regardless at current pace. There was also a conservative approach taken due to lack of clarity on whether there was enough for second doses. We're also no longer last (#44, woo).

California has a problem because we're the largest state but so much of our population is clustered in a few areas. Its creates an equity problem and also a manpower problem. Our medical personnel are busy treating people with COVID, but we need that same pool of people to work these mass vaccination sites. They've been trying to get as many retired or otherwise out of work medical people to come work as they can, but its not easy(Our health director in LA county gained a bit of notoriety a few days ago because she was even personally working at one of the sites).

And I can't reiterate enough, we're the largest state and the federal government had no plan. They just dumped off the product. Hopefully in a few months with more federal assistance we can close the gap a bit.
