Vaccinations rise in some states with soaring infections
Vaccinations are beginning to rise in some states where COVID-19 cases are soaring, White House officials said Thursday in a sign that the summer surge is getting the attention of vaccine-hesitant Americans as hospitals in the South are being overrun with patients.
Coronavirus coordinator Jeff Zients told reporters that several states with the highest proportions of new infections have seen residents get vaccinated at higher rates than the nation as a whole. Officials cited Arkansas, Florida, Louisiana, Missouri and Nevada as examples.
âThe fourth surge is real, and the numbers are quite frightening at the moment,â Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards said on a New Orleans radio show. Edwards, a Democrat, added: âThereâs no doubt that we are going in the wrong direction, and weâre going there in a hurry.â
