Vaccine hesitancy in Hinds County, Mississippi, is a story shared elsewhere
CNN
Dr. Nelson Atehortua, an assistant professor at Jackson State University's school of public health, drove two hours to get a coveted shot of Covid-19 vaccine because demand was so high, he couldn't find an appointment locally.
But on a recent day at a mass Covid-19 vaccination site at the university in Jackson, Mississippi, getting a shot was a snap. People wanting to be vaccinated just trickled in, and the staff at the site sat bored in the meantime. "Today it's quiet, but it hasn't been like that all the time," Atehortua said.More Related News
