Join us on January 28 at 11am (ET) for the Capitol Hill Steering Committee on Pandemic Preparedness and Health Security webinar: COVID-19 Vaccination: What is Needed Now to Meet the Needs of the Hardest Hit Populations in the United States.

As the largest mass vaccination campaign in recent US history is now underway, the US government and states must play vital roles in boosting confidence in the vaccine, building demand, and meeting the needs of a diverse set of urban, suburban, and rural communities. We will discuss how the vaccination campaign is going, what the federal government can do to support a successful immunization effort, and the systems that need to be built for future mass vaccination efforts.
