OLYMPIA, Wash. The State of Washington’s latest data shows there are racial and ethnic inequities when it comes to getting the COVID-19 vaccine especially among the Hispanic and Black communities.
But, the state has a new tool in its belt to tackle this problem; it’s called the Vaccine Equity Fund.
It’s an initiative started by ‘All In WA’ with the backing of community leaders, including Governor Inslee. The idea is to allocate funds and resources to communities disproportionately impacted by COVID-19 to educate them on the vaccine and to make it more accessible.
