Chatham Vaccine Providers Work To Ensure Vaccine Equity for Hispanic Residents
When Chatham Hospital’s Jesus Ruiz became the first person and first Latino in the county to get vaccinated on Dec. 16, UNC Health made its stance clear: vaccine equity and access would be top priority.
“It’s very important to get the coronavirus vaccines,” Ruiz said in a Spanish-language video Chatham Hospital shared on Facebook a week later. “In part it’s another weapon against this virus that unfortunately has devastated our community, so I recommend that everyone get vaccinated when the vaccine becomes available to all of us.”
