Public health leaders have been under pressure to get more people vaccinated in order to lower the COVID-19 case rate.
NBC 7 took a closer look at the vaccination rate in San Diego County and compared it with other parts of the nation where cases are higher.
“If enough people get vaccinated, it’s going to slow down the rate of transmission,” said Mar Pines, who was visiting San Diego from Santa Maria, California.
Pines said she was relieved to hear that more than 70% of San Diegans have been fully vaccinated. While cases are climbing nationwide, San Diego County’s positivity rate, which is averaged over a seven-day period, is less than other counties. New numbers, released Tuesday evening, show that San Diego s positivity rate at 8.8%.
