The White House announced Monday that it will continue adding to the number of safe and trusted places people can get vaccinated during the pandemic, which has killed more than 555,000 in the U.S., including nearly 6,200 Coloradans.
“There are tremendous efforts being taken locally to administer vaccines,” Gen. Glen VanHerck, commander of North American Aerospace Defense Command and U.S. Northern Command, said in a news conference Monday.
The Pueblo site is the one of three federally run mass vaccination centers announced Monday by the White House COVID-19 Response Team, along with one in Columbia, South Carolina, and another in St. Paul, Minnesota.
