Data updated: July 16, 2021
Actions from prior meeting
• School-based clinics in motion.• Addressing communication needs for those on the fence about vaccine. • Seeing incentive options.
Notable areas of interest
Data trends
• Majority of hospitalizations 50-64 yrs. and non-vaccinated. • School outbreaks negligible after summer break began.• Case rates are relatively low but increasing. Fife, Lake Tapps, Bonney
Lake, Frederickson have the highest rates.• Vaccination rates held steady from previous week among racial/ethnic groups.• Total vaccine coverage in Communities of Focus is low but weekly uptake
outpaces county average.
Equity issues and disparities
• Black and Latinx vaccination rates lagging county average but not getting worse.
• White vaccination rate both lagging and slowly declining.• Black cases are recently increasing.
Areas with low vaccine uptake
• Spanaway, Parkland, Lakewood.• Rural areas in South and east County.• Communities of Focus: Springbrook and White River lowest among COF.
Key observations
• Rural white populations remain highest for being on the fence about vaccine; groups with highest risk often have the lowest vaccination rates.
• County faith leaders and business continue to engage and mobilize to promote outreach and vaccine uptake. Trusted messengers continue to promote vaccine through personal stories about their own vaccine experiences. Leaders are mobilizing to share messages, ideas, and opportunities for outreach.
• Hospitalization percentage among COVID-19 cases continues to be between 8-10%, higher among unvaccinated and older age groups.

Transitions and Recovery• Goal 1—Department recovery: Internal focus on staff and
Department services moving out of full response.
• Goal 2—Community recovery: External focus on community recovery from COVID-19 effects and how our Department will respond.

Response and Recovery PlanningQuestions for discussion:
• What do you see and hear from the community about recovery?• What do you hear from community members about needs?
• What core public health focus areas should we prioritize?
• Where do you envision we will be as a community at the end of the recovery process?
