Recently released data from Colorado counties suggests that vaccinations are limiting the spread of the coronavirus in the Colorado communities where they are being most accepted. On Tuesday, April 27, Dr. Rachel Herlihy, the state’s epidemiologist, said case rates are highest in locations where vaccination rates are lowest and vice versa.

The CDC also recently updated its mask guidance for fully vaccinated individuals based on growing evidence that COVID-19 vaccines are effective at preventing COVID-19 disease, especially severe illness and death.

Protect yourself and your family and consider signing up for an appointment today. If you have questions, please review the facts at COCOVIDVaccine.org.
