COVID-19 Vaccination Vulnerability Layer
The COVID-19 VACCINATION VULNERABILITY LAYER helps states, counties, and cities identify areas that may require more vaccination resources and outreach. This Census tract-level data product, developed by CNA, identifies areas greater vulnerability across three themes: vaccine distribution challenges, physical and functional access to vaccine administration sites in the health care sector (hospitals, clinics, pharmacies, etc.), and attitudes toward vaccination.
As vaccine availability increases and pharmacies and other health care sites ramp up their capacity, local public health districts will play a key role in promoting both speed and equitable access – particularly in areas with fewer vaccination sites and populations with functional access challenges. This data
layer can help identify where these places (and populations) are located, and help target additional resource deployments such as mobile vaccination clinics or public outreach campaigns.

(NOTE: We are currently able to share the data layer with state, local, tribal, and territorial governments.)
