Our findings show that states are heterogenous, facing many different vaccination-related challenges related to both structural barriers and individuals’ beliefs. We provide actionable solutions for time- and resource-pressed state and local policy makers to increase and promote equitable vaccine uptake in the United States. Focusing on the barriers and beliefs people hold, overlaid with their likeliness of getting vaccinated, helps guide programming with precision and greater accuracy, improving program efficiency and effectiveness, and increasing return on investment
