Meanwhile, California will begin allocating 40% of all vaccine doses to people living in the most vulnerable neighborhoods in an effort to inoculate people at highest risk for coronavirus and open up the state’s economy faster.

Many of the neighborhoods are concentrated in Los Angeles County and Central Valley, which have had some of the highest infection rates. Areas are considered the most vulnerable based on values such as household income, level of education, housing status and access to transport.
