Will We Accomplish Joe Biden’s Goal Of A 70% Vaccination Rate by July 4?

Joe Biden set a goal for the American people to obtain a 70% vaccination rate by the Forth of July. Covid19-projections.com suggests that goal might not have be reachable without an unexpected spike in the number of vaccines administered. Total immunity percentage in America is only projected to reach 64% by the end of 2021. During the final six months of this year, the total immunity percentage from vaccinations, past infection, or both, will only grow 3%.

As of June 3, the White House stated 63% of American’s have been administered their first vaccine, and 52% of all adults are vaccinated. To reach a 70% vaccination rate, we would most likely have to see another spike in the number of people getting vaccines because as of now, that number has begun to plateau.
