[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would love to see those maps overplayed with ones showing numbers of elderly in this city. But that might eff up everyone’s narrative. [/quote] According to the US Census web-site (2019 ACS-5 Yr), the distribution of population age 65 and up by ward is: Ward 1 6,102 Ward 2 8,100 Ward 3 14,906 Ward 4 13,275 Ward 5 12,592 Ward 6 10,373 Ward 7 10,620 Ward 8 7,702 So yes, the Wards with the most people are having the most people sign up for vaccines. But let's try and make this a racial issue.[/quote] I'm not sure if there's more recent data, but initially higher percentages of people over 65 were getting vaccinated in the wealthier and whiter wards (https://washingtoncitypaper.com/article/506172/new-residency-data-for-vaccinations-is-concerning/) the larger numbers of 65+ residents don't explain that.[/quote]
