By Experts currently think we need somewhere between 70% and 85% of the total population fully vaccinated to achieve “herd immunity”. Vermont has the highest percentage of fully vaccinated at 67.0% – so there is a long way to go.
The 7-day average deaths is the highest since May 14th.
According to the CDC, on Vaccinations.
Total doses administered: 355,768,825, as of a week ago 350,627,188. Average doses last week: 0.73 million per day.
