Zients notified of the delta variant, which could cause overvoltage
"The CDC says that about 1,000 counties from the United States have vaccination rates below 30%. So how do you worry about the tip and areas with this delta, variant and others with vaccination rates weak? " asked Bash. "We are concerned," Zients said. "Where we see business increases are in these areas generally lower vaccination rates." States like Mississippi and Alabama, for example. "So we have to make sure we do everything we can do anything to vaccinate all Americans and particularly targeted areas that have lower vaccination rates. We also help state officials and locality in partnership. With governors and their teams with overvoltage response teams that not only help increase vaccination rates in counties who know or could increase the increase in business, but also provide an increase in therapeutics. Tests and other tools In order to ensure that we stop propagation and preventing any increase at the local level. But you "Reton, that vulnerability is the extent that vaccination rates are lower. And it's just another reason to get vaccinated for your own safety, but also for your family and your community. "
Here's how we come back to normal faster, said Zients
Bash asked Zients why the house fell into the 70% vaccination of today's eligible Americans. Are there, as Dr. Anthony Fauci says, "Two Americas" -one who is vaccinated and who is not, who still spreads Covid. "We have made a lot of progress," Zients said. "Two of the three adult Americans have at least a shot. More importantly, the elderly, people over 65, 90% have at least once. They were the most vulnerable to Covid. In fact, 80% of Deaths were more than 65 years old, so it's really important that we have made all of these progress with nearly 90% of the elderly with at least one shot. If you have been fully vaccinated, you are protected. If you are not 'Are not vaccinated, you are not protected, you are not protected. So, we will double on our efforts to vaccinate millions of Americans just July and August. People get this protection and can enjoy The life back to normal. "
Ask your doctor if the COVID vaccine is best for you, "said Zients
Bash asked her what he would say to people who will simply not vaccinated - they do not want. Are vaccinations tray? "The good news is that you look at these surveys in recent months, because more and more people have been vaccinated more and more people decide that they want to be vaccinated," Zients said. "The trend is positive. That said, we must continue to meet people where they are, which facilitates the task and easier to get the vaccine. It's free. It's practical, it's effective, it's effective . And we have to answer questions from people. People always have questions about vaccine, safety and efficiency. So we have to answer these questions. The most confidence messenger is the local doctor, the supplier of Local health care. So, more and more, we have more and more vaccines in the doctor's offices of health care clinics so that people can have answered their questions, then roll their sleeves and get a shot of fire. "
Wear a mask if you are not vaccinated, says Zients
Bash asked mask mandates, perhaps in communities where Covid goes back again. "As we have been doing since the beginning, local governments will make their local decisions based on their vaccination rates and levels," Zients said. "The CDC has been very clear that if you are vaccinated, you have a very high degree of protection. And if you are not vaccinated, you eat to be vaccinated in the meantime, wear a mask." So no mandate? "The preference is that people are vaccinated. They are protected, right? And if you are not vaccinated, you must hide to protect yourself and protect others."

Have we reached a vaccine tray - do we all who wanted one, have one? "I do not think" said Zients. "As I said earlier, trust in the vaccine, those who want to have the vaccine, which is cultivated regularly through time, because people had friends and family and neighbors are vaccinated and see the Security and effectiveness of their relatives and in their friends and family. So, I believe that trust will continue to grow, but we must continue to make it easier to get vaccinated. So, more and more, we have More and more vaccines in the doctor's offices, in the clinics and it's a great place for people to go to ask any remarkable questions and start their sleeves and get their first shot. We have vaccinated Millions of people every week in recent weeks. And we can, we will continue to do it inside the summer.
