South Carolina Reaches 50% Vaccination Rate
This is being celebrated all over the South Carolina news this afternoon. I even saw the San Francisco Chronicle of all things had a story about South Carolina achieving this milestone. I suspect they don’t think too highly of us here in the South :)… South Carolina achieves 50% vaccination rate of eligible adults – FINALLY!
It has taken an ENORMOUS effort to push this to 50%. The last 5% or so has taken an extraordinary effort in terms of get out the vax information to people so they will get the shot. The advertising on the radio, TV and social media has been relentless. If you visit SC DHEC’s Facebook page, they must post between 8-10 times per day different stories about Covid and the vaccine. How in the world are they going to get to 70, 80, 90% vaccination rates? Ain’t gonna happen. The only way we get close to 70% I believe is going to require forced vaccinations. I may be new here to South Carolina, but I’m thinking the folks here aren’t going to take too kindly to forced anything…let alone vaccinations. Should be fun!
