At least 90% of adults in Maryland have received at least one dose of their COVID-19 vaccine, according to the Office of Gov. Larry Hogan.
Hogan celebrated the milestone in a Saturday news release, saying that 鈥淓ven as we continue to urge booster shots, we are also very focused on getting the remaining unvaccinated individuals vaccinated.鈥�
鈥淎s part of our commitment to leave no arm behind, we will work to get that last remaining 10% vaccinated. This continues to be the single most important thing you can do to protect yourself, your family, and your fellow Marylanders,鈥� Hogan continued.
The state identifies adults as everyone who is 18 or older who received their first shot.
Booster shots are also on the rise in Maryland with 60% of the state’s eligible seniors having received one. On Thursday, Hogan expanded eligibility for boosters to include anyone 16 and older.
