Where is vaccine hesitancy in Canada?
Provinces across Canada, like the rest of the world, are in a race to reach herd immunity to slow or stop the spread of COVID-19. While there’s no magic number to reach herd immunity, most research studies estimate that it could be achieved if about 60-75% of the population is vaccinated.
Using the VaccineInsights dataset from Environics Analytics, government and public health professionals can locate undervaccinated populations, identify and better understand the reasons behind vaccine hesitancy, and improve targeting of communications and services.
This story map highlights the different types of data available with VaccineInsights and how they can be used.
