“Latinos represent only 17% of those receiving the vaccine to date, far below (their) 39% share of the state’s population. It is clear that more needed to be done,” Dr. Jeffrey Reynoso, executive director of the Latino Coalition for a Healthy California, said in a statement. Reynoso added that bumping up allotments to affected communities “will not only protect Latinx households, but safely accelerate California’s economic reopening.”
