Colorado Coronavirus Vaccination Progress Update: May 6
Here's the latest information about how many Coloradans have been vaccinated and which counties have the highest vaccination rates.
More than 2.6 million Coloradans have received at least their first dose of the coronavirus vaccine, according to state data. More than 1.7 million Coloradans — more than 32 percent of the state's population — are fully immunized.
At least 70 percent of Coloradans will need to get vaccinated before the state can safely roll back all public health restrictions, according to a new University of Colorado study.
