Organizations focus on vaccines for minority Vermonters May 12, 2021 GMT BURLINGTON, Vt. (AP) — A community group of members of Vermont’s minority population is working to make sure as many minority members as possible are vaccinated against COVID-19. The Vermont Health Equity Initiative says it will be providing vaccinations for those who are Black, indigenous, and people of color through July 10. Clinics are being offered with support from the Vermont Department of Health and the City of Burlington. So far, the initiative has collaborated to deliver over 2,800 total doses of the vaccine. Yet the group says that as of Monday, about 70% of white, non-Hispanic Vermonters in Chittenden County have received at least one dose of the vaccine, while 58% of minority members have received at least one dose.
