Over 43 percent have received at least one dose, and the average daily coronavirus case count has decreased 16 percent. There are, however, worries about vaccine hesitancy plus new warnings about variants. Some states, like Michigan, are offering to expand reopening when more people get vaccinated. In other states, vaccination rates are decelerating. In Arkansas, which is one of more than 10 states not ordering all available doses, more than one-third of residents have received at least one dose — well below the national total. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director Anthony Fauci is adamant that Americans get vaccinated: "Bottom line of my message . . . A: get vaccinated, and if you're having a two-dose regimen, make sure you get that second dose," he said.
