Excerpt: “This [Office of the Assistant Secretary for Planning and Evaluation (ASPE)] issue brief examines demographic characteristics of adults receiving booster doses of COVID-19 vaccines using data from the U.S. Census Bureau’s Household Pulse Survey. As of March 9, 2022, 47.5 percent of the fully vaccinated adult population has received a booster. Booster doses of the available COVID-19 vaccines are recommended for everyone aged 12 and older to protect against infection and severe disease caused by SARS-CoV-2, especially in light of emerging and circulating variants of concern. People aged 40 and above, those with a college degree or higher, people who identified as gay, lesbian, or bisexual, people with insurance coverage, and those with a household income of $75,000 and above were more likely than their respective reference groups to have received a booster.”
