Getting the COVID vaccine has required having a computer, access to broadband, and the know-how and perseverance to be able to find an opening for an appointment. But, what happens to people who don’t have these capacities, may be homebound, or may not have access to transportation?

On this podcast, HealthCetera correspondent and public health nurse Barbara Glickstein, MPH, MS, RN, interviews Virginia Reath, RPA, MPH, PC, a physician associate who is working with a pharmacist to provide vaccines to hard-to-reach populations in Ulster County, New York.

This podcast first aired on HealthCetera in the Catskills on WIOX radio on April 21st, 2021.
