Why are More Schools Partnering with Vaccine Clinics?

As school districts across the country grapple with how best to protect students and staff from the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, many are turning to vaccine clinics to help mitigate the spread of the virus.

The Desert Sands Unified School District (DSUSD) in California has recently partnered with local vaccine clinics to provide vaccines to students and staff. This year's teachers plan to do everything they can to ensure everyone is safe and healthy during the upcoming months.

Vaccine clinics have also helped vaccinate more people, which is key to achieving herd immunity. Ultimately, these partnerships between schools and vaccine clinics are helping to keep everyone safe and healthy.
