These clusters will be like cracks in a wall, through which water can seep during a storm. They will mean that even when some communities reach the 70 percent threshold, infections could still spread within them.
People who waited because of distrust or hesitancy, and people who could not be vaccinated because of lack of access or preexisting medical conditions, will bear the brunt of these continuing outbreaks."
