"To eradicate this pandemic, it is important that everyone gets vaccinated and continues wearing the mask. The CDC recently reinstated the guidance that recommends fully vaccinated people wear masks indoors in areas with "substantial" and "high" transmission of Covid-19. Right now, we have a pandemic of the unvaccinated, and therefore we need to protect ourselves, our families, and children by wearing a mask. Please help support our healthcare system and the frontline heroes by doing your part. Get vaccinated and wear your mask."
As a healthcare worker and frontliner, Dr. Helen Rostata-Pesola believes in science and numbers. Helen has lost many friends, families, and co-workers to Covid-19.
