COVID-19 Vaccine Data
COVID-19 Situation Update
Updated 6/20/2024
This is the final update for the 2023-24 COVID-19 vaccine season.
For more information on the data sources, see More About COVID-19 Vaccine Data.
- Minnesota uses the following definitions for COVID-19 vaccine data:
- People up to date on vaccinations: Number of people in Minnesota who have received the recommended doses of COVID-19 vaccine they are eligible to receive. For ages 6 months through 4 years, up to date means at least two doses of a COVID-19 product, one of which must be a 2023-2024 COVID-19 vaccine. For ages 5-64, up to date means one dose of a 2023-2024 COVID-19 vaccine. For ages 65+, up to date means two doses of a 2023-2024 COVID-19 vaccine.
- Percentage of people up to date: Percent of people who are up to date with vaccine doses.
- All data are subject to change as more information is received.
- Vaccine administration data were updated with data as of 12 a.m. on 6/16/2024.
- Health equity data is as of MMWR week 22 (6/1/2024).
- Unless otherwise noted, all denominators based on 2019 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year estimates for the state of Minnesota available at United States Census Bureau: Explore Census Data.
- All data by county is based on residence.
- Statewide estimates by age and gender are based on ACS tables DP05 and S0101, except for the 5-11 and 12-15-year-old age groups, which are based on summing the county-level estimate based on ACS table B01001. The age groups have been split based on the assumption that ages are equally distributed within age groups.
- Vaccine administration data are based on vaccination records in the Minnesota Immunization Information Connection (MIIC), a confidential immunization information system. Immunizations in MIIC are submitted by participating health care providers.
- Providers that participate in MIIC are encouraged to submit complete and accurate information to MIIC within one week of acquiring the information. Only pharmacies are required to submit within 72 hours.
- MIIC is a useful resource to monitor state and county immunization coverage in Minnesota. The data can also help to identify at-risk populations and encourage public health actions and policies aimed at increasing immunization. The data cannot tell us why people are not vaccinated.
- However, MIIC data may underestimate the actual number of people receiving vaccines due to several limitations:
- While most providers routinely submit vaccine administration data to MIIC, some data may not be submitted to MIIC properly or there could be errors in the data that result in missing immunization information. MDH staff monitor and address any lapses in data exchange to ensure that timely and accurate vaccination information is submitted.
- Cross border-state immunization data exchange currently occurs with Iowa, Wisconsin, and North Dakota. Vaccines received in Iowa, Wisconsin, and North Dakota when the person gave a Minnesota address are in MIIC. At this time there is no similar data exchange with South Dakota.
- Age is calculated based on the date of birth provided at the time of vaccination.
- Due to missing/unknown values and small cell values, totals may not add up across dashboards.
- Due to data collection and reporting timing, there may be discrepancies between data from the Minnesota Department of Health (MDH) and other sources.

- Up to date (UTD) rates for the total and 65+ population dropped at the beginning of March 2024 due to the change in recommendations on February 28, 2024. The recommendation for those 65+ changed from receiving one dose of a 2023-2024 COVID-19 vaccine to receiving two doses.

- Denominator is by age group and either total population or selected county depending on the selection on the top of the page.
Health Equity
Note: The health equity data uses the previous up to date definition. For ages 6 months through 4 years, up to date means at least two doses of a COVID-19 product, one of which must be a 2023-2024 COVID-19 vaccine. For ages 5+, up to date means one dose of a 2023-2024 COVID-19 vaccine.

- Minnesota population by race and ethnicity: Total population of Minnesota by race category per 2019 ACS 5-year estimates.
- People vaccinated by race and ethnicity: Percent of people up to date, by race/ethnicity and age group.
- People by Social Vulnerability Index (SVI) risk group up to date by age: Percentage of people in Minnesota age 1 year and older, by SVI ZIP code quartile and age group (2019 American Community Survey). For more information on Social Vulnerability Index, refer to COVID-19 Vaccine Equity in Minnesota.
- People experiencing homelessness, past three months: Percentage of people experiencing homelessness in the past three months up to date, by age group. Homelessness data represents shelter, street outreach, hotel and site-based supportive housing documented in the Minnesota Homelessness Management Information System (HMIS) and limited to people with at least one health care interaction documented at a participating health system.
- People incarcerated in jail settings, past three months: Percentage of people incarcerated in jail setting in the past three months up to date, by age group. Incarceration in jail settings is defined as booked in Minnesota county jail in the past three months and limited to people with at least one health care interaction documented at a participating health system.
- People incarcerated in prison settings, past three months: Percentage of people incarcerated in a prison setting in the past three months up to date, by age group. Incarceration in prison settings is defined as booked in Minnesota state prison in the past three months and limited to people with at least one health care interaction documented at a participating health system.
- People enrolled in Minnesota Health Care Programs: Percentage of people enrolled in a Minnesota Health Care Program (MHCP) up to date, by age group. MHCP enrollment is defined as enrollment in an MHCP in the past year and limited to people with at least one health care interaction documented at a participating health system. Vaccination rates for people enrolled in an MHCP do not include data from Medicaid claims. An estimated 2.5% of Medicaid COVID-19 vaccinations are found only through claims. Consequently, the vaccination counts may be slightly undercounted for those in the Medicaid program. For more information about MHCP programs refer to:MN DHS: Medical Assistance or MN DHS: MinnesotaCare.
- Health equity data is created in partnership with the MN EHR Consortium.
