Hispanics

Dr. Raul Pino says there are pockets of the Orlando-area Latino community that still aren't vaccinated for COVID and that access problems include the inability to take time off the job to get the shot.

Black Americans' vaccination rates still trail other groups, while Hispanics show improvement. In Florida, 26% of white people have received a COVID-19 shot, compared with 13% of Blacks.
