Public Health Update
COVID-19 is not gone, but we have learned considerably more about how to manage it. Vaccines and new boosters are protecting most people from serious illness, and the extreme strain on our healthcare systems has abated. At Pacific, we are moving from an emergency response to our more typical long-term strategy of communicable disease management.
