What You Need to Know About the Vaccine and COVID-19.

This is your chance to get the most up-to-date information on COVID-19 from some of the nation’s leading experts on the subject. This webinar is appropriate for everyone, but will highlight the importance of vaccination for the African American and Hispanic communities which are three times more likely to be hospitalized and twice as likely to die from COVID-19. Here is your opportunity to ask questions and express your concerns.

If you are not able to attend the Zoom, we will be live streaming on our Facebook page.
