CDC says more than 100M in U.S. have gotten one Covid dose

And nearly 58 million have been fully vaccinated, according to the latest figures from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

One year after the pandemic hit the U.S., 101.8 million have gotten their first Covid-19 vaccine shot, which is a little over 30 percent of the total U.S. population.

The overwhelming majority of the 157.6 million shots, which is the combined total of first and second doses, that have been administered have gone to people who been hit hardest by the deadly virus — senior citizens ages 65 and over, the CDC figures showed.

The U.S. leads the world with 30.7 million confirmed Covid-19 case and nearly 556,000 deaths, according to the latest NBC News numbers.

80% of covid deaths have been among those over 65. The percent of them getting vaccinated has been rising very slowly. If you can, ask seniors if they have been vaccinated. If they need help getting an appointment or getting to a vaccination site, help them. It’s very satisfying. We need to focus on seniors.
