ZIP code data now includes demographics for better understanding of communities with lower vaccination rates

Maricopa County has now added demographic detail to their ZIP code-level vaccination data. This will help the county and its partners identify in finer detail which communities have experienced potential barriers to getting vaccinated so that vaccine events can be tailored to people’s needs.

More than 3 million Arizonans are now fully vaccinated against COVID-19, another milestone as the state increases its protection against the coronavirus, Governor Doug Ducey and the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) announced today.

“Millions now have the full benefit of these safe, highly effective, free, and widely available vaccines,” Governor Doug Ducey said. “I encourage every Arizonan who hasn’t been vaccinated yet to roll up their sleeve, get the COVID-19 vaccine, and help end the spread of the virus.”

The Pima County Health Department began to offer COVID-19 vaccinations at its three main Health Clinics on June 7.

All three brands of the vaccine – Pfizer, Moderna, and Johnson & Johnson – will be available. Anyone 12 years and older are eligible.

The three clinics and hours of vaccination are:

Theresa Lee Health Center

• 1493 W. Commerce Court
• Monday, Friday: 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.
• Wednesday: 1 – 5 p.m.
• 520-724-7900

After a successful test of vaccination incentives the last week of May, the Pima County Health Department has decided to offer incentives at most of the County-affiliated vaccination sites through June, including up to 100 Arizona Lottery $2 scratcher tickets per day.

State-run vaccination sites, which have administered 1.6 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine to nearly 900,000 individuals, will be phased out over the coming weeks as Arizona’s focus turns to increasing the number of neighborhood options, including pharmacies, doctors’ offices, and pop-up clinics. 

Arizona-run sites in the Phoenix area, Tucson, Yuma, and Flagstaff administered more than 6,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses Thursday and saw their greatest demand in the late afternoon as parents brought their kids ages 12 to 15 to be vaccinated.

Pima County and its community partners will be offering expanded opportunities to be vaccinated now that the Food and Drug Administration and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have endorsed the Emergency Use Authorization of the Pfizer vaccine to include children ages 12 to 15.

Arizona-run vaccination sites in the Phoenix area, Tucson, Yuma, and Flagstaff are ready to begin vaccinating children 12 to 15 years old on Thursday, May 13, following guidance from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). 

The seven state mass-vaccination sites in the Phoenix metropolitan area, Tucson, Yuma, and Flagstaff reached another milestone today, having now administered more than 1.5 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine while helping to protect Arizonans rapidly and efficiently. 

With vaccine increasingly available at pharmacies, pop-up clinics, doctors’ offices, and other neighborhood locations around Arizona, state sites won’t stay open indefinitely. So take advantage of them now while they are still open. 

Arizona has administered more than 5 million doses of COVID-19 vaccine since December, with nearly 3 million individuals having received at least one dose and 2.27 million now fully vaccinated, Governor Doug Ducey and the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) announced today.
