Department of Health Services Releases New COVID-19 Vaccine Data Visualization

Friday, February 12th, 2021 -- 12:00 PM

(WMTV) The Department of Health Services unveiled a new COVID-19 vaccine data visualization on their dashboard Thursday, highlighting what percentage of Wisconsinites have received the COVID-19 shot.

DHS noted that this dashboard will give a more comprehensive look at the vaccine roll-out in the state.  “This new dashboard highlights the hard work of our vaccinators and also helps us all identify areas where we must continue to make improvements,” said DHS Interim Secretary Karen Timberlake. 

DHS added in new metrics, including vaccines administered by race and ethnicity. The data indicates that 10.3% of Wisconsinites who identify as white have received at least one dose, as well as 7.3% of people who identify as American Indian, 4.9% who identify as Asian and 2.9% who identify as Black.

The department explained that this data is critical in order to reduce access barriers and encourage the vaccine to those experiencing disparities in receiving quality health care, such as communities of color.

DHS said they are prioritizing vaccine orders for Tribal partners, community health clinics and federally qualified health centers.
