Abstract
People experiencing homelessness (PEH) are at increased risk for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection. This study assessed COVID-19 vaccination coverage among vaccine-eligible PEH (5 years and older) stratified by demographic characteristics. PEH were less likely to complete a primary vaccination series than the Dane County population (32.0%; 95% confidence interval [CI], 30.3%-33.8% vs 82.4%; 95% CI, 82.3%-82.5%) and were less likely to have received a booster when eligible (30.8%; 95% CI, 27.8%-33.9% vs 67.2%; 95% CI, 67.1%-67.4%). Vaccination rates were lowest among young PEH and PEH of color.
