Abstract

This paper explores the determinants of Covid-19 vaccination in Florida, focusing on demographic, economic, and political preferences. Using data from vaccine intake for Floridians from January to June 2021, we explore the spatial variation in Covid-19 vaccination patterns and regional characteristics to analyze the main features associated with vaccine intake. We use spatial econometric techniques to verify the spatial autocorrelation between vaccination rates and estimate models that can account for spillover effects between counties. Our data allow us to explore differential effects for vaccination patterns across population subgroups according to gender, race and ethnicity, and age. Our results show that political preference has the largest effect on vaccination patterns and that this effect was persistent over time.
