Building off of work she led for the first iteration of VaxMap, CP3 Associate Director Dr. Inma Hernandez released VaxMap 2.0. An interactive dashboard showing access to potential COVID-19 vaccine locations, VaxMap 2.0 reveals racial disparities in distance to vaccine sites. The project's team came from Pitt Pharmacy and West Health.
