Equity in vaccine outreach and delivery has been prioritized given the disproportionate harms of the COVID-19 pandemic on communities of color and those with lower socioeconomic status. Health systems have largely communicated availability or signup for vaccines to patients through electronic patient portal messages, emails, or online materials; however, rates of portal use and internet access are limited among rural populations, individuals with lower socioeconomic status, and racial and ethnic minority patients. For purposes of this analysis, these groups are referred collectively as marginalized populations. Reliance on these media as the primary means for communication may inadvertently widen vaccination disparities.
