I was just talking about vaccination hesitation with a pharmacist friend of mine. He doesn't think this current event down here will move the needle very much. I disagree. I've always said it takes a certain amount of dead or extremely sick people, before you get some folk's attention. I know we have some breakthrough cases - more than I'm comfortable with - but we still have a lot of unvaccinated people, especially in the rural areas.
I think the current COVID fais do-do will bump another 10-15% of the state's population into being vaccinated. Then again, I've been wrong before...
