The Iowa Legislative Services Agency released a new map of the week. This week’s maps focus on the percentage of population over 18 fully vaccinated for COVID by county in Iowa and then by state.

Johnson County appears to have the highest percentage of population over 18 years old fully vaccinated against COVID-19 at 61.2 percent. It is the only Iowa county with a percentage over 60 percent of population over 18 fully vaccinated, though Dubuque (58.7) and Carroll (58.1) are close.

Davis County’s 34.9 percent is the lowest in the state. Other counties below 40 percent are:

Decatur (35.4)
Mahaska (36.3)
Van Buren (36.5)
Jefferson (36.8)
Wayne (37.9)
Lucas (38.7)
Sioux (38.9)

Overall, 50.2 percent of Iowa’s population over 18 years old is fully vaccinated against COVID-19. For the population over 65 years old, 80.8 percent has been fully vaccinated.
