U.S. data from the CDC tracks monthly cumulative counts and percentages of persons receiving one or more updated 2023-24 COVID-19 vaccine doses. Coverage is broken down by age group and jurisdiction, sourced from Immunization Information Systems (IIS). The dataset was last updated in August 2024.
Use Cases

- Compare vaccine coverage across different `Jurisdiction` and `Age_group_label` categories.
- Calculate population-adjusted vaccination percentages using the `Numerator` and `Population` fields.
- Segment analysis by `Child_or_adult` to study pediatric versus adult vaccination campaigns.
