MN has joined the 50%+ club. 16 states plus DC have reached 50% or more of the total population receiving at least 1 dose.
NH becomes 4th state to vaccinate 70% of adults. All four are in New England.

My neighbourhood in BC was added as a high transmission area last week, making everyone 30+ instantly eligible for a booking. So I got a booking for May 14th, then randomly today my 28 year old partner got their invite to book, so they must be lowering the hotspot age.
You’re looking at a soon to be first dose household!

FDA authorized Pfizer for ages 12-15. They’ll meet June 10 to discuss the process for under 12.

Woooo! Hopefully, my nephew can get it soon.
Approved by the FDA, the vaccine for 12-15 still needs CDC's Advisory Panel approval, which is highly likely.

The shots may allow millions of youngsters to get back to school, camps, sleepovers and hangouts with friends.
New York will offer vaccines at some subway stops through a pilot program. (Published 2021)
The state will offer free subway and rail tickets as an incentive, joining a broader nationwide push to speed up the flagging pace of vaccinations.
State and city universities in N.Y. will require vaccinations once the shots have full approval. (Published 2021)
The sprawling SUNY system joins a growing list of academic institutions that plan to make a Covid-19 vaccination mandatory on their campuses.
Vaccine requirements are probably dependent on full approval and not emergency-use, but, application for full approval has already been made by PFZ and MOD.

Some states are vaccinating down to age 12 today, so check with your state’s rules.

I heard that possibly starting on Thursday, they can start giving the shot to everyone in the 12 to 15 age group.
The CDC panel meets tomorrow, Wednesday, May 12 and will surely give their approval. This makes Thursday the day that the teens can be jabbed.
I tried finding online which states are doing that. Do you know and can link it? Thanks!
Virginia has not yet shifted eligible ages downward. Watching closely.

It certainly seems things are moving in the right direction. Hopefully by the end of the year most things will be getting back to some sort of normalcy.

I know there is a story on CNN today about a 14-year old in GA.
Rather odd.
While states and medical personnel can make 'decisions' at their discretion, there are also 'rules.'
The Feds are giving the vaccines to the states, I would assume they could clamp down and say, "follow the rules if you want more vaccines," though the threat of not providing vaccines would not be good optics.

Sumter county (Where most of the Villages is), is now at 2/3 (66%) vaccinated. Least vaccinated is Baker, just west of Jacksonville, at 22%. In general, all the counties heavy with retirement communities are highest, with the metro areas in the middle, Orange county is a little over 47% right now. (These numbers are direct from the county, not the aggregate sites which miss some of the vax sites)

Even though I don't like needles, I definitely don't regret getting vaccinated. It's not about me. It's about we.
Uber and Lyft will provide free rides to vaccination sites until July 4, Biden says. (Published 2021)
The agreement is one of several new measures the White House hopes will help the nation reach 160 million fully vaccinated adults by the holiday.
