2021 Covid-19 Vaccination and Testing Centers In The City Of Chicago

The City of Chicago Dataset showing vaccination centers (blue) and Testing center (green) in the city.

In the map, we see data taken from the City of Chicago Data Portal. Zoom The blue points indicate where Covid-19 vaccinations are being held at which location in the city. The green marker shows where Covid-19 testing centers are. As we see, they have taken over Chicago. On the map, we can see how different neighborhoods are impacted and how far community members have to commute to either get tested and vaccinated. Not to mention, a lot of times people have to travel outside their city to get a dose. This seems like a real issue for low income community members who have a hard time with public transportation. Now, anyone can get tested, however, not everyone qualifies for the vaccine. Having locations open does help but there are still thousands of Chicagoans waiting to qualify for the vaccine. To have a closer look at the data, specific locations are below. Take a look to see where you can go!
