Mississippi and Alabama are dead last Sanity Claws May 2021 #1

Obesity, education, etc. Buckeye_Democrat May 2021 #7

That is true but 63 percent is way higher then I thought for the last state ranked jimfields33 May 2021 #8

It's a percentage of the doses used so far... Buckeye_Democrat May 2021 #9

Ah. Thank you. jimfields33 May 2021 #11

You're welcome, and I agree! Buckeye_Democrat May 2021 #14

Yes but since most people are getting 2 doses, that's sorta scary. ratchiweenie May 2021 #26

Vaccinations have slowed down, but... Buckeye_Democrat May 2021 #28

Yes, but still the numbers aren't enough for herd immunity. Too many Neanderthals still spreading it ratchiweenie May 2021 #30

True, not there yet! Buckeye_Democrat May 2021 #31

I think the OP and you have misunderstood the chart Sanity Claws May 2021 #10

The vaccine wasted should be, but is not, accounted for. littlemissmartypants May 2021 #39

Thanks! Delphinus May 2021 #2

I wish these numbers were the percentage of population vaccinated. texasfiddler May 2021 #3

I agree. This really doesn't mean much, actually. Just the ratio of vacs to those supplies Liberal In Texas May 2021 #5

Me too! And I corrected my incorrect subject line. Duppers May 2021 #17

It's not the percentage of population. It's the percentage of received vaccinations used. Scrivener7 May 2021 #4

Thank you for pointing that out. This is a less meaningful % than fully vaccinated. JanMichael May 2021 #16

Good find. It is sad that no state is over 50%. But we have, till now, only been Scrivener7 May 2021 #25

Ohio is ranked near the middle... Buckeye_Democrat May 2021 #6

Same Here In Illinois ProfessorGAC May 2021 #13

Not 50% of all people vaccinated, as others have indicated. HUAJIAO May 2021 #19

It's 50% ProfessorGAC May 2021 #38

That's great to hear.. sorry for the mix-up. HUAJIAO May 2021 #41

No Worries! ProfessorGAC May 2021 #43

If there's a ranking for "most boring", then... Buckeye_Democrat May 2021 #20

Thanks for this! Duppers May 2021 #15

You're very welcome! It's easier to read the excerpt in the DU thread. 😀 nt CottonBear May 2021 #18

Indeedy! Duppers May 2021 #22

Whoa . . . Lovie777 May 2021 #21

California has the lowest new cases... Buckeye_Democrat May 2021 #23

Is this percentage useful? California generally holds back 2nd shot as many states do Johonny May 2021 #35

I agree. Buckeye_Democrat May 2021 #37

This is important malaise May 2021 #24

We're #1, We're #! !!!!! alittlelark May 2021 #27

Congrats! Duppers May 2021 #29

Much more important stat here: marmar May 2021 #32

Yep! The NE USA is doing the best... Buckeye_Democrat May 2021 #33

Even this stat is not as useful as it appears to judge a state's progress Johonny May 2021 #36

Excellent! Duppers May 2021 #42

Lowest dozen all maga states. No surprise there. lindysalsagal May 2021 #34

Wasted doses? Are they being accounted for? nt littlemissmartypants May 2021 #40
