ASPPH Calls for Nation’s Elected Leaders to Unite in Support of Community Vaccination Efforts

While concerns and even political agreements about vaccinations can and should be openly discussed, it is not appropriate to misinform the public about the role of public health workers and it is dangerous to misinform in ways that foster hate. Now more than ever, given the inequity in vaccine uptake in the US and the rising rates of the COVID delta variant in many regions, ASPPH strongly supports community outreach efforts promoting COVID-19 vaccinations and calls on the nation’s elected leaders to unite to encourage and support such initiatives.
