Vaccines demand will probably start slowing in the next few weeks which could jeopardize America’s chance to return to normal. (CNN)

Reaching rural America and the reddest of red areas of the country will be the next arduous task that confronts federal health officials. With rampant distrust of science that has been stoked over the last 4 years, many areas of the country are dramatically lagging in vaccine distribution because of this mistrust. Unfortunately, if the mistrust continues and enough people eschew their chance to get the vaccine, then virus variants will have the chance to run rampant and America’s return to normalcy will be delayed yet again. Get vaccinated now.
