Charts below show most recent full weeks of data, up to January 23, 2022.
VACCINATIONS BY TYPE ADDITIONAL DOSES BY AGE GROUP
An additional dose is the third dose identified on or after 8/13 for individuals first administered
Pfizer or Moderna, and the second dose identified for individuals first administered J&J.
Calculations also account for at least 2 months between prior dose and additional dose to help
circumvent data entry errors. Note that total counts are estimations and not precise due to entry
errors and missing doses for Marylanders who received any of their doses out of state.
Unlike the CDC vaccination data, data from Maryland Health Department only include Montgomery County residents who were vaccinated in
Maryland. Totals do not include vaccinations administered at federal entities within the county to non-residents.COVID-19 VACCINATIONS: GAPS
