Where do most people refuse the COVID-19 vaccine? See what place in the ranking is your state.

Reluctance to vaccinate is partly responsible for the recent delta epidemics across much of the United States.

According to a recent US Census Bureau poll, 25.9 million Americans - or 10.4% of the population aged 18 and over - said they would likely or permanently refuse the vaccine.

Depending on the state, the percentage of eligible individuals likely to refuse vaccinations ranges from 25.2% to 3.7% of the adult population. The Northeast is home to the states with the highest percentage of adults seeking the vaccine.

Many Americans who have not yet been vaccinated report one of three reasons: they worry about possible side effects, they want to wait and see if the vaccine is safe, or they have trouble getting the vaccine. Others offer different explanations.

16.3 million adults, or 6.5% of the adult population, do not trust COVID-19 vaccines, while another 6,980,000, or 2.8%, do not think COVID-19 is a serious threat. Additionally, because they do not trust the government, 13.8 million adults in the United States, or 5.5% of the population aged 18 and over, have not been vaccinated.

During this time, the infection continues to spread. Since the start of the epidemic, there have been 36,547,639 confirmed cases of the virus, resulting in the deaths of 616,711 Americans.

How Apple's lobbying machine defeated Georgia to win

When Apple tried this year to defeat two bills in Georgia, it sent lobbyists, threatened to shut down vital economic initiatives, and pushed the state attorney general to push for an amendment that suited Apple. The bill that seemed to garner the most support was stopped by the Georgia House Judiciary Committee two months later. During this year's legislative session, the committee chairman did not put the bill to a vote, effectively killing him in the lower house. Apple's unreported aggressive lobbying efforts in Georgia underline a model that has received little attention from government across the country this year: State lawmakers introduce bills that force Apple and its tech giant colleague Google to give up some control over their mobile phone application stores. Then Apple, in particular, puts great pressure on lawmakers with promises of economic investments or threats to withdraw its money, and the law has stalled.

The Delta-induced surge in the United States has entered a more dangerous phase, and that is dying is changing; Fauci recommends new treatment

As the FDA fully approved the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine on Monday, America's COVID-19 outbreak has reached a more dangerous stage. The number of cases is increasing in 42 states, in a maximum of six weeks. However, deaths are currently on the rise in 43 states, the worst since December, through America's deadliest month in a pandemic, according to a survey of Johns Hopkins University data by USA TODAY. In the week that ended Monday, 7,225 people died in the United States. In comparison, the Pearl Harbor and 9/11 attacks claimed the lives of approximately 5,400 Americans. The face of the dying changes rapidly. According to a study by the USA TODAY National Centers for Health Statistics, deaths are increasingly occurring among non-Hispanic whites. Most other racial and ethnic groups are now responsible for the decline in death rates, although non-Hispanic whites, who accounted for about 61.1% of all deaths during the epidemic, accounted for 68.8% of recorded deaths. in July and Aug
