Over 2.5 million people got a shot; 308 new COVID-19 cases
Over 2.5 million Wisconsinites have had at least one shot of a COVID-19 vaccine, state data showed Sunday.
That's over 44% of the state's population, according to the state Department of Health Services.
About 37% of residents are fully vaccinated and have had both doses of a Pfizer-BioNTech or Moderna vaccine, or the single shot of a Johnson & Johnson vaccine, according to DHS. Among residents 65 and older, more than 76% are fully vaccinated.
In total, nearly 4.7 million doses have been administered in the state since December, according to DHS. On Saturday, about 14,100 shots were given, adding to the seven-day average number of doses of 37,202, according to DHS.
The weekly average of daily doses continues to fall since it reached a peak of about 64,000 shots on April 11, and health officials are urging people who haven't been vaccinated to sign up for a shot.
