Only 54% of the U.S. population is fully vaccinated, with the rate of new vaccinations declining.
The CDC continues to push for vaccination as well as masking practices, even among fully vaccinated groups.
Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine (R) is also encouraging schools to implement mask mandates for the upcoming semester. “Reasonable people may disagree about a lot, but we can all agree that we must keep our children in the classroom so they don’t fall behind and so their parents can go to work and not take time off to watch their kids at home,” he said.
Dr. Anthony Fauci echoed DeWine’s statement, saying that masks and vaccinations will keep children safe in schools this fall. “If you surround the kids with vaccinated people and you have everybody wear a mask, you can get a situation where the children will be relatively safe in school,” he said.
