It’s easy with the pandemic restrictions beginning to lift to forget what a threat COVID-19 still poses for us and our communities. Our single best bet to stopping new variants and ensuring the safety of ourselves and others is to make sure you are up to date with your vaccines. And that means to take the latest booster shots as you become eligible. Visit covid19.pcoa.org for the most up to date information about the COVID-19 vaccine and for information on how you can receive your COVID-19 booster shots.
