LeadingAge joined with AHCA/NCAL and CDC in setting a goal of getting to 75% of nursing home staff fully vaccinated by the end of June. Read the press release here. According to CDC’s COVID data tracker, we are currently around 50%. We can do this! LeadingAge continues to work with CDC regarding issues of continued vaccine access once the Long-Term Care Pharmacy Partnership wraps up (likely by the end of March) and we transition to the Retail Pharmacy Program for continued access.

To address vaccine hesitancy, don’t forget about the March 4 Town Hall with Black Coalition Against COVID (BCAC) and check out our LeadingAge Vaccine Information and Resources page.
