An estimated 222,455,652 Americans have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19, or 68.0% of the U.S. population.

Some states are proving more effective than others in getting their residents vaccinated. In Maryland, 76.6% of the population are fully vaccinated, higher than the U.S. average.

Though Maryland is doing a better job vaccinating its population than other states, there are still significant quantities of the vaccine sitting idle. As of July 11, Maryland has received about 17,059,100 vaccinations and administered about 73.9% of those doses.

Meanwhile, the virus continues to spread. In total, there have been 1,143,571 confirmed cases of the virus in Maryland as of July 11 — or 18,925 for every 100,000 people. For context, there have been 26,646 known infections for every 100,000 people nationwide.

All COVID-19 and vaccination data used in this story are current as of July 11, 2022.

These are all the counties in Maryland where COVID-19 is slowing (and where it’s still getting worse).
