    Weekly vaccination rates in Quebec (A–C) and Ontario (D–F). Observed (points) and modelled (blue and green) vaccination rates over time are shown. Predicted vaccination rates were obtained from 3 different regression models where the vaccination rate and the impact of the vaccine passport were allowed to vary by age group (A, D), dissemination area–level income quintile (B, E), or dissemination area–level proportion racialized quintile (C, F). 95% confidence intervals were estimated via bootstrap with 1000 replicates. Note: Announ. = announcement of the vaccine passport, Implem. = implementation of the vaccine passport.

    First-dose SARS-CoV-2 vaccine coverage in Quebec (A–C) and Ontario (D–F). Observed (points) and modelled (blue and green) vaccine coverage over time are shown. Predicted vaccine coverage was obtained from 3 different regression models where the vaccination rate and the impact of the vaccine passport were allowed to vary by age group (A, D), dissemination area–level income quintile (B, E), or dissemination area–level proportion racialized quintile (C, F). Estimates and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) of the impact of the vaccine passport (observed coverage minus modelled counterfactual) are shown at the right of each panel. 95% CIs were estimated via bootstrap with 1000 replicates. Note: Announ. = announcement of the vaccine passport, Implem. = implementation of the vaccine passport, pts. = points.

    Impact of vaccine passport on first-dose coverage of SARS-CoV-2 vaccine (in percentage points) across age and by dissemination area level of income and proportion of racialized residents in Quebec (A, B) and Ontario (C, D) by the end of the study period. The impact of the vaccine passport (observed vaccination coverage minus the modelled counterfactual coverage in the absence of a vaccine passport) was estimated from 2 different regression models in which the vaccination rate and the impact of the vaccine passport were allowed to vary by the interaction of age and either dissemination area–level income quintile (A, C), or dissemination area–level proportion racialized quintile (B, D). 95% confidence intervals (in parenthesis) were estimated via bootstrap with 1000 replicates.
