“…One set of our results agree with a survey performed across the United States, where they found higher-income households seem to be less likely to show vaccine hesitancy than lower-income households [ 25 ]. Differences in the geographical distribution could also be related to the inequities due to race and area of residence and could explain the vaccination uptake and hesitancy found in our results [ 26 ]. Our results also confirm previous findings linking increased likelihood of receiving the vaccine with trust in the government and trust behind the science and safety of the COVID-19 vaccine, as well as reduced likelihood of receiving the vaccine when individuals do not trust the government or the science behind the vaccine [ 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 ].…”

“…Access and equity issues are as important as public trust in vaccines. Initially, neighborhoods with high vaccination rates had a greater share of White and Asian people and a lower share of Black and Latino people ( Sacarny and Daw, 2021 ), reinforcing that prioritization of high-risk racial/ethnic groups is needed to ensure equitable access ( Wrigley-Field et al, 2021 ). Equity in vaccination rates is critical to ensure that COVID-19 health disparities are reduced.…”

“…Numerous studies have focused on geographic dimensions of COVID-19-related inequality, [90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97] but few have examined spatial differences in vaccination below the state level. [59,98,99,100] The temporal persistence of geographical vaccination disparities is particularly underexplored. We also contribute a novel dataset [101] that harmonizes initially incompatible sources.…”
