Period-specific Vax rates and COVID-19 mortality rates at midlife (ages 45–64 years) by race/ethnicity in Minnesota.

(A) The cumulative Vax progress of each racial group over time at midlife as measured by the percentage of that group who have completed their vaccine series. (B) The race-specific mortality rates at midlife during the pre-Vax period, mid-Vax period, Delta period, and Omicron period of the pandemic. (C, D) Comparison of the ranking of racial groups, from worst to best performing, by percent unvaccinated and mortality rates during the (C) Delta period and (D) Omicron period. The Vax data in C–D is from the midpoint of each period (October 2, 2021 for Delta; February 26, 2022 for Omicron) and the mortality rates cover the entire period (July 2021‒December 2021 for Delta; January 2022‒April 2022 for Omicron). All mortality rates are annualized to facilitate comparison across periods.
