BEH, Inc. Holding Vaccine Booster Clinic for Staff and Residents

According to the CDC, studies show that protection against Covid-19 may decrease over time, especially in those people who are 65 and older.

Data shows that a booster shot may boost immune response. Therefore, it is recommended that certain populations receive the vaccine booster. Included in this recommendation are older adults, people 18-64 with health conditions, people 18+ who live in long-term care settings, and people at risk of exposure, ie. health care workers, first responders, etc.

Bradford Ecumenical Home, Inc. has partnered again with Walgreen’s to host a Pfizer vaccine clinic today, October 15th for residents and staff of its Continuing Care Retirement Community.
