Jacksonville, Fla. — The New York Times has released a helpful tool for Americans, curious to find out where they likely fall in the distribution of a COVID-19 vaccine.

The tool is cautiously labeled as an opinion resource, as the placement is only an estimate from experts.

Click here to find out where you fall based on age, occupation, and location.

For example, the Times estimates that a middle-aged, healthy, non-essential worker in Duval County is in line behind 268.7 million other Americans. That same person is in line behind 17.4 million other people in Florida, and behind 842,100 people in Duval County.

That estimated comes from data generated by the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine.
