for the Advancement of Community Care
It is the mission of the Brancati Center to improve the health of communities by developing new models of healthcare in partnership with community organizations. Our Center is organized into three well-integrated units: Community Partnership, Education, and Research. Our focus is on providing access to evidence-based programs through partnerships with the community where people live, as well as to demonstrate outcomes.
Dear Neighbors,
In the US and across the globe, we are experiencing another devastating surge of COVID-19 cases. We have now lost over 800,000 Americans to the virus, and we are now seeing our hospitals being stretched thin once again. We also are learning more about how the new COVID-19 virus variant, Omicron, may impact our fight against the virus.
Over the past year, we are fortunate to have gained a very important tool in our fight against the pandemic: vaccines. And we know that masks, physical distancing, ventilation, and testing can help us to slow the spread of COVID-19.
In this issue of the Brancati Center Bulletin, we discuss the new vaccine recommendations and how we can stay safe this holiday season. As always, we encourage you to reach out to us if we can help answer questions or find answers to the questions you have (contact information below).
Wishing everyone a safe and healthy holiday season!
