The dashboard has information such as vaccine location (city) data, age group, amount administered by day, etc.

Needs to have Dozes Available, this would show if we need to accelerate the needles in arms process. If you look at CA currently, we’ve only administered 35% of the supply we have. West Virginia – 75%, Texas – 60%.

I have the same question. But if the rate of vaccination in those speedy states exceeds the supply chain, then people will wait months for the 2nd dose, making it less effective. New York says they’ll run out by Friday, and you have to wonder how long it’ll take to get enough doses to fully vaccinate the people that already got shot #1.

Good initial amount of info. Would be better to also see how many sites are giving injections.

What is the best way to get appointment?

Dawg January 19, 2021 - 2:04 PM - 2:04 PM

You can call your doctor. If you don’t have a doctor, you can call the county health dept. at 1-833-859-2626. You can get more info on their website, just google Contra Costa Health Services.

It’s interesting that Martinez leads the county with 7.2% of the population who have had at least one dose. That must be mostly medical staffs at the County hospital, Kaiser and VA. Bay Point, on the other hand, has had only 1.1% vaccinated.

@Observer,

I’m assuming that most who have been vaccinated are health care workers and nursing home patients so far. At the bottom of the table it says its the number of doses is based on the city of residence.

This is great information, but I think it also needs to have the number of doses received/available.

Useful stats but is lacking context.

How about number of persons in Group 1A versus vaccines administered to Group 1A persons? Group 1B persons?

..Recovered rate/Total Infections (about 83.3 percent County-wide)
.. Active infections/Total Infections
.. Deaths/Total County-wide infections

I don’t think that’s too bad, especially since I hadn’t even heard the word “Covid” a year ago at this time.

Always Right January 19, 2021 - 12:47 PM - 12:47 PM

Glad CCHS is posting this data. Two comments:

1) so far, the large majority of vaccinations have been given to people under age 50. Understand this includes health care workers in contact with elderly people, so some vaccinations in the younger group makes sense for that reason, but the focus now needs to shift to the over 65 group,

2) Men have a significantly higher rate of death following infection than women, yet women so far have received almost twice as many vaccinations than men. I can assure you there would be shouts of outrage if this were reversed.

Sancho Panza January 19, 2021 - 12:51 PM - 12:51 PM

My first thought was another useless dashboard for all us to pay attention to as the data is manipulated…
But, I see that females are outnumbering males by a large percentage in receiving the vaccination: 33,551 to 18,087…what makes this interesting is that deaths are currently 55% males and 44% females! Where’s the equity in that?

Soon to be ex-California January 19, 2021 - 1:22 PM - 1:22 PM

I assume the discrepancy is due to the following demographics where females outnumber males:

1. Healthcare workers
2. 75+ (women tend to live longer)

Once this is extended to the general population I assume this will balance out

How many vaccines has the county received?

vandyposh January 19, 2021 - 1:48 PM - 1:48 PM

Good information, however, are they tracing those that get vaccinated outside of the county where they reside. I live in Contra Costa vaccinated in Alameda County. Perhaps the number is minimal in the overall count.

Randy January 19, 2021 - 2:01 PM - 2:01 PM

add % ICU vacancy

Sideline January 19, 2021 - 2:37 PM - 2:37 PM

I have some questions;
Once I get the vaccine;
Will I be able to walk around in public, go to stores and gather without a mask?
Can I and other people that are vaccinated, gather without restrictions again?
Is life going to be normal again?

Rico January 19, 2021 - 11:18 PM - 11:18 PM

Not for a while. The vaccine isn’t perfect. It doesn’t always prevent infection, but they say it can reduce severity. They also don’t know if or how well you can spread it if you get an asymptomatic case after vaccination.

If hospitalization is uncommon in post-vaccination infection, then people won’t be so worried about it and the illness will just be a nuisance. Restrictions shouldn’t be necessary as the illness becomes less common and less serious.

However, if the vaccine antibodies wear out before the disease ‘disappears’ and everybody has to get vaccinated again, some level of restrictions might remain. There’s no playbook for this.

My hope is that it mutates into something less benign, or just burns itself out and goes away within a year or so. Trying to vaccinate everybody every year just isn’t gonna happen.

Email that I got from Kaiser regarding vaccines. Very interesting how this “Operation Warp Speed” has turned into “Ooops, Sorry, we’re stupid and wasn’t thinking”

Vaccine supply
Expanding California vaccine guidelines to include everyone age 65 and older increases eligibility by nearly 6 million people in the state. Unfortunately, the vaccine supply to distributors has not yet been increased to vaccinate that many people. Right now, vaccines are in extremely short supply for all vaccine distributors across the country, including Kaiser Permanente.

As a vaccine distributor, Kaiser Permanente is organized and prepared to distribute the vaccine as we receive supply. As of January 16, we have administered more than 170,000 vaccines in California. Each week, we receive a fraction of the vaccine required to meet our demand. Kaiser Permanente cares for more than 1.5 million members age 65 and older, and last week we received a vaccine supply of just 20,000 first doses. Our ability to expand and speed vaccine distribution depends on vaccine supply made available to our state. At the current rate, we’re looking at vaccine distribution that is much slower than any of us find acceptable. We’re doing all we can to get additional vaccine supply as soon as possible.

This is a nice dashboard…the cynic in me wants to see what percentage of those dosed are elected representatives and their families. Let’s hope the dosing efficiency continues to improve; almost 10% of all doses occurred in 1 day out of almost 30, on Jan 15, that was just a few days ago. Another 4000 yesterday would have been substantial (if they dosed, I heard in Southern Cal, dosing was halted in areas for MLK Day…makes perfect sense/s).

Yoyo Hop January 19, 2021 - 5:01 PM - 5:01 PM

Where’s the stats on all those adverse reactions to the vaccine?

A major vaccine was just “paused” because of serious side effects.

Googlar January 19, 2021 - 7:49 PM - 7:49 PM

selective truths are no different than lies

if the entire truth is not displayed it can be inferred that a lie is being pushed

Rico January 19, 2021 - 11:40 PM - 11:40 PM

The news just isn’t publishing them. You can always check the VAERS database. I’ve heard that there are over 43K adverse events reported but still less than 100 are classified as ‘serious’. (I don’t know the date on those numbers. They’ll obviously be changing daily.) At one point, the CDC reported that there had been 11 cases of anaphylaxis for each million doses given. But I’m sure it’s hard to keep up with those stats given the rapid change in the numbers.

What’s really bothersome is several reports of deaths. One of a 56 year old healthy physician in Florida is very troublesome. He was pro-vax, but believed the vaccine cause his severe ITP, which killed him < 3 weeks later despite heroic efforts to save him.

Some other deaths are unbelievable. It was given to 2 people in their 90’s who were on hospice or hospice-qualified, had advanced dementia, and were only 2 weeks post-Covid. They died within 90 minutes of the vaccine. There are so many things wrong with that, I can’t comprehend who thought those patients should ever get an experimental vaccine so soon after infection.

This makes me want to include something on my Advanced Directive saying that if I have dementia or I am estimated to live less than a year, don’t waste any vaccines on me.
