As Latino vaccinations lag in the region, activists push for systemic change

Eagle County, which has the largest Latino population among the three counties making up the Roaring Fork Valley and surrounding environs, 60% of white people have received one dose, compared with 15% of Latinos, who make up 29.6% of Eagle’s population.

Examples of social media posts from Colorado residents participating in the #VaccineFactsCO campaign to encourage others to be vaccinated. From the onset of the pandemic, it became obvious fairly quickly that COVID-19 was not affecting all communities equally. Latinos in particular dying at a rate three times higher than their white counterparts are experiencing. Vanessa Bernal said the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment recognized these inequities and approached communicating with non-English speakers more intentionally. “As we know the pandemic exploits all of society’s vulnerabilities and makes health disparities particularly pronounced. Because social and economic inequities are so deeply embedded into our system, they require several solutions to create positive outcomes for people of color,” Bernal, Bilingual Media Specialist for the Prevention Services Divison at CDPHE said. “Because of that, the department of health has been taking several steps
