Santa Clara County officials have corrected its count of Latinos who have received the COVID-19 vaccine from Kaiser Permanente.
Officials recently determined that when data counting Latinos was transferred into the state’s immunization registry, most had their ethnicity replaced with “other” or “non-Hispanic.”
Working with Kaiser, county officials fixed the error and added more than 22,000 to the count of Hispanic/Latino community members who have received at least one dose.
The county’s vaccination dashboard is available at https://covid19.sccgov.org/dashboard-vaccinations.
