9:57Now PlayingMore than 99 percent of the COVID-19 deaths in the United States in June were among unvaccinated people.
According to Dr. Anthony Fauci, the country fell short of President Joe Biden's goal of 70 percent of Americans vaccinated with at least one dose by July 4. The United States fell behind in reaching the president's goal in the South and Midwest. Health officials also struggled to persuade younger Americans to get vaccinated despite lotteries, gifts and other promotions. Now, the concern is how to increase those numbers as the Delta variant spreads. Dr. Bernard Ashby, a cardiologist and the Florida State Lead for the Committee to Protect Medicare, joins "Start Your Day" with Sharon Reed and Mike Hill to discuss this topic.
