Leaving COVID-19 Behind

March 2021 Newsletter

Are you hesitant about getting vaccinated? The question shouldn’t be “why should I get vaccinated for COVID-19?” The question should be “why not get vaccinated for COVID-19?” While acceptance of the vaccine has grown over the past few months, public health experts estimate “vaccine hesitancy” in 30 – 40% of the population. This edition of Region On Point includes important information and resources about the vaccine. Hopefully, as issues that contribute to vaccine hesitancy are effectively addressed, more and more individuals will get vaccinated and, together, we can leave COVID-19 behind. Learn more in this month's Greater Perspective.
