ADAMS COUNTY, Colo. Adams County and SCL Health are joining forces with regional school districts to vaccinate educators.
The group became eligible for the vaccine in Colorado on Feb. 8.
SCL Health said it s vaccinating nearly 1,300 eligible Coloradans a day at the Adams County Government Center.
That s where Legacy High School English teacher Tyler Arko received his first dose of the Pfizer vaccine Saturday. It’s very exciting, and it’s a step closer to what everyone wants, which is schools back open full time with teachers and students and all the fun that happens in high schools and schools across the state, Arko said.
