I WANT TO BE VACCINATED, WHAT CAN I DO?

We are continuing to use every drop of vaccine we receive from the state quickly and are continuing to advocate and request to receive additional vaccine supply (especially for our 65 and over community members and those upcoming with comorbidities and underlying conditions (which goes into effect February 15, 2021 under the Governor's order) who so desperately need and want to be vaccinated). We extend our heartfelt thanks from all of our team members for the continued outpouring of support and positive feedback from our vaccine distribution events and efforts, we will continue working to get as many #shotsinarms as we can with our allocations of vaccine.
