In Peoria, Tazewell and Woodford counties, wealthier zip codes had higher rates of full vaccination, a WCBU data analysis found.

The correlation between income and vaccination rate was most stark in Peoria County, where the Dunlap zip code of 61525 had a full vaccination rate of 72.46 percent. Dunlap's median income is $103,344.

South Peoria's 61605, which has a median income of $19,442, had Peoria County's lowest full vaccination rate: 24.06 percent.

The second-lowest rate (26.72 percent) was in West Bluff's 61606, where the median income is $35,904.

I'll have to remember to link to this post every time the Lefties try to claim that it is Trump supporters who aren't getting vaccinated.

Yep, it must be all that "systemic racism".

I guess when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

How can you tell a person's political affiliation by their income?
People don't care how much you know.
They want to know how much you care.

I got my J & J vaccine at the South Side Mission in March. I know of 4 other people who were vaccinated there at the same 3-day event. None of us lives in the 61505 zip code. As I was leaving, one of the volunteers begged me to tell as many people as possible, as they had far more doses available than they had appointments to get them.

Maybe @RPlant and @Gandalf need to give some rides to the clinic on the South Side.

Holy prophet Batman, I agree, how does anyone know how voters in that zip code punched the ballot, whether for the decrepit Elephants or the stinkin' Donkeys? I mean, having that kind of ballot access, why that sounds like Leftist FRAUD!! Call Trump, he might got hisself some votes down in the south end here! (Remember, I don't care for either party)

Well, it sure ain't like people down there aren't trying. I seen Facebook posts about another place like the mission, doing a vaccination clinic in their company lot on Saturday. With this damn Delta crap going on, maybe they'll get over being scared, and get themselves an arm poke.
