City to address vaccine disparity Task force to promote minority registration ROSA SALTER RODRIGUEZ | The Journal Gazette COVID-19 vaccination numbers across Indiana are growing, but some groups lag in obtaining protection against the virus that so far has sickened 692,240 Hoosiers – or about 1 in 10 residents. The Indiana State Department of Health reported Tuesday that 1,266,129 residents have been fully vaccinated with either a two-shot or single-shot regimen. In recent weeks, that number has been growing by about 25,000 a day, so about 19% of Hoosiers have been fully vaccinated. The percentage becomes greater if those younger than 16, who are not eligible to receive vaccination, are subtracted from the total population.
