President Biden visited Green Road Community Center in north Raleigh on Thursday afternoon to thank the people staffing a mobile vaccination clinic there, discuss the importance and ease of getting vaccinated and mobilize an outreach effort to get shots to nearby residents.

“Don’t put it off any longer. Just do it. Just do it,” he told a cheering crowd inside the community center.

Only 55 percent of adults statewide have received at least one vaccine dose, which is the same percentage as a week ago, according to DHHS statistics. Fifty-two percent are fully vaccinated.

Nationwide, nearly 66 percent of adults have had at least one dose.
