Press Release
To win the fight against COVID-19, one of the most powerful tools is mass vaccination, in addition to the continued use of public health measures such as physical distancing, wearing of masks and handwashing. If a sizeable majority of the population is vaccinated, it will help reduce transmission of the disease and greatly limit severe COVID-19 cases and deaths. This is especially true for vulnerable groups such as undocumented persons who are often living and working in conditions that do not allow for proper physical distancing.
