ADHS long term care Town Hall meeting being held by Zoom on Tuesday, January 18, 2022 starting at 1:30 pm. This will be an interactive session on COVID-19 vaccines and boosters.
Arizona is last in the country in the number of residents with boosters. According to the CDC COVID-19 Vaccine Booster Shots | CDC the effectiveness of the COVID-19 vaccine to prevent infection or severe illness wanes over time especially in individuals 65 years and older and therefore a booster shot is needed. The COVID-19 booster shot increases the individual’s protection against COVID-19 infection and severe outcomes resulting from infection. With the emergence of Omicron, it is imperative to get as many residents and staff their booster shot as soon as possible.
You’ll get an update directly from ADHS' Dr. Carmona on the boosters. This will also include tips on how to arrange for boosters using the ADHS mobile vaccine clinics and other methods.
