Sky Lakes is actively advocating for COVID-19 vaccinations because they are the easiest and best way to end the pandemic. The COVID-19 vaccines protect you from getting sick by working with your immune system so your body will be ready to fight the virus if you are exposed to it. As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, getting the vaccine is a powerful step in taking charge of your health.

The more people who receive COVID-19 vaccinations, the sooner people who are most vulnerable – those who are living with heart disease, diabetes, and other chronic conditions – can feel safe among others.

Every person who gets protection from COVID-19 by getting a vaccination helps us move closer to normal life.
