Thanks to a mass-vaccination opportunity at the Rio Rancho Events Center on March 15 three weeks away from the goodbye to the hybrid learning process quite a few Rio Rancho Public Schools employees were able to get the one-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccine.
The vaccination event was provided by Walgreens, in partnership with the City of Rio Rancho and its Rio Rancho Events Center.
There were 2,300 vaccinations administered, promoted to educators.
City staff members invited people from RRPS, Bernalillo Public Schools and charter schools in the area, said Annemarie Garcia, the city’s Public Affairs Division manager.

Tech giant, Apple Inc, is expanding its ‘Independent Repair Provider’ (IRP) programme to more than 200 countries. However, Nigeria was not listed in the programme.
Nearly every country where Apple sells its products will be covered under the IRP.
The programme offers repair providers access to genuine parts, tools, repair manuals and diagnostics for out-of-warranty repairs.
Apple launched the programme originally in 2019 and expanded it to Europe and Canada last year.
There are now more than 1,500 IRP locations serving customers across the U.S., Canada, and Europe.
“Being a part of the Independent Repair Provider programme has been a huge benefit to my business, employees and customers,’’ said Scott Baker, owner of Mister Mac in Wimberley, Texas.

The Deputy Minority Leader of the House of Representatives, Hon Toby Okechukwu on Thursday posited that the recent killings in Ebonyi State, the attack on former Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Prof. Chukwuma Soludo, and the prevailing killings across the country are ominous indications that things are falling apart.
Hon. Okechukwu in a statement obtained by Nigerian Tribune warned that the country was already neck-deep into a season of anomie, which if not immediately arrested, would spell doom for the country.
While condemning the recent massacre in Ebonyi State communities and the attack at an event in Anambra, which left three policemen attached to Prof Soludo dead, he stressed that time was overdue to breathe life into the reports of the 2014 National Conference and the Governor Nasir El-Rufai-led All Progressives Congress (APC) Committee on True Federalism, both of which he said favoured state police the answer to the rising insecurity in the country.
