Fox News
All COVID-19-related deaths that occurred in Maryland last month involved unvaccinated people, Gov. Larry Hogan’s communication’s director tweeted Tuesday.
Michael Ricci also shared that 93% of new COVID-19 hospitalizations in the state "occurred in people who were unvaccinated." Maryland has administered over 6.9 million COVID-19 vaccinations, helping to see 3.4 million residents fully inoculated. The state also recorded 75.1% of residents 18 years and older with at least one shot. "President Biden set a national goal of vaccinating 70% of adults by the Fourth of July. Maryland set an ambitious goal of reaching that milestone by Memorial Day, and we did exactly that," Hogan said in a previous statement. "Now with the help of our $2 million vaccine lottery, we have vaccinated 75% of adults by the Fourth of July – outpacing the nation and many other states. We are committed to leaving no arm behind."More Related News
