Giving EVERYONE a Shot: Vaccine Equity in Massachusetts

More than 3 million vaccine doses have been administered in Massachusetts, but issues around equity and access remain. According to the the latest state data, more 71% of all residents who received at least one dose of vaccine are white, 12% are latinx and 7% are black.

Vaccine hesitancy in communities of color has been reported as a significant barrier to the state's roll out efforts but recent surveys show white Republican males are among the most hesitant. How has the narrative changed?

My guests this show are Eva Milon of the Massachusetts Immigrant and Refugee Association, Dr. Atyia Martin of the Black Boston COVID-19 Coaltion, and Michelle Wu, Boston city councilor and mayoral candidate.
