The latest data is creating additional concerns with the rising incidence of the Delta variant that is running through communities, especially those that are unvaccinated. There are a number of factors at play with increased transmissibility that appears to be attributable to the virus shedding in infected individuals earlier and at higher rates.

getting vaccines in people’s arms as quickly and widely as possible is the best mechanism we have in fighting the pandemic to protect our friends, families, parents, children, and our businesses.

Who do you care for enough to get that vaccine?
