A U.S. Health and Human Services survey shows that San Diego County has some of the highest vaccine acceptance rates in the country, with only 11% of residents saying they probably or definitely would not get the vaccine. . Only 4% said they would definitely not get any shots.
The county’s goal is to vaccinate 75 percent of people over the age of 16. According to data released Thursday, we just went through half of prison with 38%.
But only 2.7% of vaccines administered in the county have been targeted at Blacks, who account for 5.1% of the county’s total population.
Almost 24% of the vaccines administered in our county have gone to Latinos and more than half, 55.5%, to women.
Last month, a survey by NBCLX / Morning Consult revealed that a growing number of young adults can never be vaccinated. The survey found that Generation Z and Millennial adults between the ages of 18 and 34 are now the most likely generations to say they will not be vaccinated,
with 23% saying they will not and with particularly disinterested young people aged 18 to 23.
