San Juan Basin Public Health announced additional vaccine clinics in La Plata and Archuleta counties.
Currently, Colorado has one of the highest COVID-19 incident rates in the country, behind only Michigan. As more transmissible variants continue to spread, unvaccinated people are at increased risk. SJBPH urges all eligible people to get vaccinated as soon as possible.
