COVID-19 vaccinations
Vaccination is highly effective and an essential prevention step to minimize the risk of severe disease and deaths, including the COVID-19 Delta variant. The recent COVID-19 surge shows 97% of hospital admissions and 99% of deaths are in unvaccinated individuals. CDC is issuing a Health Alert Network (HAN) Health Advisory to notify public health practitioners and clinicians about the urgent need to increase COVID-19 vaccination coverage. COVID-19 vaccination is available for HCA Healthcare personnel, if you have not yet been vaccinated.
