There seems to be a correlation between states with the least number of vaccinated people and higher cases of the virus.
Ten states have less than half their adult residents vaccinated, and these states also have higher coronavirus cases.
Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, Tennessee, West Virginia and Wyoming are averaging more than 78 new cases per 100,000 people, according to CNN.
The Biden administration has set a goal for states to vaccinate at least 70 percent of their adults with at least one shot by July 4. Seven states have achieved this: Connecticut, Hawaii, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New Jersey, and Vermont.
In the 10 states with less than half of their adult residents vaccinated, the average per capita case rate is about 19 percent higher than the seven states that have reached the Biden administration’s vaccination goals, CNN reports.
