"Our state has shown the world what’s possible when you have a group of people with the right attitude ... trusting medical science,” Gov. Phil Scott said.
And the winner in the race to herd immunity is: Vermont, by a mile. On Monday, the state lifted all remaining COVID-19 restrictions as it became the first in the nation to at least partially vaccinate 80% of its eligible population, age 12 and over. “Today, June 14, 2021, because of the hard work of so many Vermonters and their commitment to each other, 80 percent of eligible Vermonters have now received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine,” Gov. Phil Scott (R) said in a signed directive Monday.More Related News
