NC SERT Leader Update
COVID-19 Vaccines: The shot is a free and effective way to begin to rebuild our sense of community and the economy. Visit the NC Department of Health and Human Services online to learn more about the COVID-19 Vaccines. I urge you to remember that currently the supply of vaccine is not as high as it will be in the coming months. It’s hard to be patient but everyone needs to continue to wear a mask, wait six feet apart, and wash their hands. Let us continue to double down on prevention!
