Tracking The Vaccine follows COVID-19 vaccine distribution across a historically segregated city.
WBEZ has created a tool that determines your eligibility phase and matches it to the latest information about when and where you’ll likely get inoculated. Although geared for Chicago residents, the tool — based on daily reporting from WBEZ’s health care team — provides eligibility status for every Illinoisan. We’re also answering and updating Frequently Asked Questions about COVID-19 vaccines and their rollout, so check back often.
Right now, Illinois is in Phase 1b, which started on Jan. 25, 2021.
The full interactive tool can be viewed here.
