The U.S. on Monday finally reached President Joe Biden’s goal of getting at least one COVID-19 shot into 70% of American adults — a month late and amid a fierce surge by the delta variant that is swamping hospitals and leading to new mask rules and mandatory vaccinations around the country.

In a major retreat in the Deep South, Louisiana ordered nearly everyone, vaccinated or not, to wear masks again in all indoor public settings, including schools and colleges And other cities and states likewise moved to reinstate precautions to counter a crisis blamed on the fast-spreading variant and stubborn resistance to getting the vaccine.

Vaccine goals are important and slowly America is getting to the point at which herd immunity can be achieved. The Coronavirus is not going to disappear without achieving a very high level of vaccination against the virus. In fact it will continue to mutate and cause variants to spring up that are more contagious and deadly than the original virus. The Delta variant is scaring many people into getting vaccinated, it should not have to take scary variants to convince people that science is real.
