The United States is experiencing a "pandemic of the unvaccinated." This was stated by the head of the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC, subordinate to the Department of Health and Human Services) Rochelle Walensky, reports the Financial Times.

According to her, over the past week, the number of new cases of coronavirus infection in the country has jumped by 70%.

“This is turning into a pandemic of the unvaccinated. We are seeing outbreaks in parts of the country where vaccination rates are low,” Walensky said.

The lowest vaccination rate in the US is in the state of Mississippi. 33.5% of the population is fully vaccinated there. Mississippi's infection rate was 94% this week, and the unvaccinated also accounted for 87% of hospitalizations and 93% of deaths, state health director Thomas Dobbs said.
