Teen COVID Vaccinations In Gulf States Per 100K
A Gulf States Newsroom analysis of COVID vaccination rates among teens in Alabama and Mississippi shows that Black teens are getting vaccinated at a higher rate than white teens
Some national studies say white teens are getting vaccinated more than Black teens are. Looking at the data compared to 100,000 people, however, shows that Black teens are actually getting vaccinated at roughly one and a half times the rate of white teens. The per 100K rate was calculated from COVID-19 vaccinations done out of eligible population.
