13 States Already at 70% Vaccinated with at least one shot!

Porcelain — Tue, 08 Jun 2021 23:33:59 GMT

Well before the July 1st deadline, 13 states have already met the national goal of 70% of adults with at least one vaccination shot. We are doing great overall!

Congrats to:

California
Maryland
Connecticut
Hawaii
Maine
Massachusetts
New Hampshire
New Jersey
New Mexico
Pennsylvania
Rhode Island
Vermont
Washington

New York is getting close, with 68%. I hope they have a really fun and festive Fourth of July. So great that the rest of the world is looking at us as a major success story.

Glad to see my state, Washington, is at 70% vaccinated.

Yea!!!! That is GREAT news!!!!

And yes, we KNOW that Covid isn't over, and that the vaccines aren't 100% effective, and there are breakout strains, and people are still getting sick and dying.

Blah, blah, blah.

Whatever.

Let's just celebrate this bit of GOOD news, shall we, without the usual Debbie Downer's trying to rain on the parade.

That's 13 out of 50. More than 13 are not even close to 50%. I think it will be quite a while before the country hits that 70% mark.

Not yet. They are going by total population. Inslee goes by those eligeblie for the vaccine so for now WA is about at 64% and climbing....

I do not believe that the rest of the world is looking at us as a major success story. Far from it.

The chart I just pulled up showed 58 % in California have received one shot and 44% have been fully vaccinated. The date was yesterday. I live in California.

I'm happy for all the people who have gotten vaccinated. We now know two people on ventilators with covid. I'm so happy to be fully vaccinated, I can't even express it.

I'm not sure where the number 13 came from, but I don't believe it's correct.

You think higher?

No, lower. My state is listed and as of this evening's news, we're not expected to be at 70% by July.

riley1 — Wed, 09 Jun 2021 01:27:58 GMT

My state is well below that number. I think we are around 35-40%.

Success at getting out vaccines and making them available to everyone who wants them. Not the other stuff. We are doing really well with this aspect.

TN is too. But I got my shots and will get any boosters they roll out, so I'm still feeling really good. I just want to give credit to the states that are doing so well with this.

I don't believe those numbers are accurate. I take all information about Covid with a grain of salt.

KarenQVC — Wed, 09 Jun 2021 02:09:20 GMT

The news about this Delta strain may get some people to the clinic.

I am just happy that all who want the shots can get the shots. The rest--c'est la vie.

I take all of these statistics with a grain of store-brand iodized table salt.

I'm sorry that my statistics are annoying some of you. But I like science and I like statistics. We all have different interests and that is what makes life so fun. I hope you guys find some topics you enjoy and that you can contribute to them with your positivity.

I wish you good health and happiness in all of your choices.

@Porcelain

I'm not sure where those numbers are coming from but in regards to Hawaii, our numbers as of today are:

HNN website:

As of Tuesday, 53% of the state was fully vaccinated while 60% had at least one dose.

I don't really care one way or the other, but thought I'd share what our local news is reporting as of today.
