Do you believe that the reported vaccination numbers are higher than they really are?

I definitely think way less people have taken the jabs than what they are making out. Everyday on the radio there are adverts every 15 minutes begging people to get vaccinated.

All those tents they set up for the vaccinations are ghost towns, I walk past one everyday and there is just some guard on a chair usually asleep. The media really pushed the fact that vaccination rates are low because of "lack of access", and if we just opened clinics 24/7, set up a bunch of pop up vaccination tents and offered vaccines for people at the gates of baseball games we'd hit our targets. Wrong. People just don't want the shot.

I think it depends on the age group. I’m In my mid 30s and hardly anyone I know at my age is vaxxed, however my work life is primary 50 to 65 year olds and pretty much all of them are jabbed.

I've seen where only 48% are fully vaccinated. Who has said it was higher?

I don't think they are understating them, so they are either accurate or overstating them. I tend to lean towards the latter judging my the honesty of the reporters.

Currently I dont think they are being misreported but I do see some factors coming up that will create inaccurate data.

1. Schools and work requiring vaccination. As places start marking vaccines required, people will find was to appear on the vaccine lists without out actually getting the shot. This is more than just forging a card. I mean finding doctors to say they vaccinated you but not doing it.

2. Reports that Delta Variant can break through the 2 vaccines, but a booster will help. This will cause so very paranoid individuals to go get a 3rd short but in a way to make it appear as though it is their first shot. These clinics are not doing any sort of validation against a master database to see if people have already received the shot or not.

3. Providing funding to municipalities based on vaccine rate. Currently this is not in place, but the idea has been kicked around. Also, municipalities paying individuals to get the shot, this could make people try to get multiple vaccines, or appear on vaccine roles multiple times.

Personally, I don't care how many have been vaccinated nor do I have to know.

I do know that foreign sailors are receiving the vaccine when at US ports. Some foreigners are traveling to the US to get the vaccine.
So if they credit those shots to US population then the true percentage might be a little lower. However, it is probably not a huge difference.
