A Shot of Confidence: Getting the COVID-19 Vaccine and Getting Back to Life
Getting the COVID-19 vaccine is how we can all get back to life. And that includes the team here at Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare. If it’s been safe and effective for our staff who all got the vaccine months ago, the vaccine can also help you and your loved ones safely get back to the business of living. Take it from them:
