The number of COVID-19 vaccines being administered in Mississippi has decreased nearly 60% over the last two weeks, marking a growing rift between the state’s supply of vaccines and the population’s demand for them.
A declining vaccination rate does not bode well for Mississippi improving its national standing in vaccine rollout. The state continues to rank last in the nation for the share of its population that has received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, according to CDC data. As of Monday morning, 30% of Mississippians had received at least one dose, much lower than the United States total of 42%.
