Let's get people registered for the vaccines!

Getting people vaccinated is a huge priority right now. And BonaResponds needs your help! 

Our main need is on Tuesdays. We will be working with the Cattaraugus County Health Department to help people register. 

 Our time slot is 8:30-3:00 (we may add more). We will split it. Not sure on exact details yet (would it be a BR event if I were sure of anything?).  For starters (this week only?) 

8:30-12:00 and 11:30-3:00. 

  We need people who have been being safe/ or tested, do not have COVID, or have had it or are vaccinated. Masks will be required. We will be socially distanced. 

 On Saturdays, we will be doing something different but will be helping people know how to sign up. Tuesday is our biggest need right now!

This is what I sent out on WhatsApp: 


Remember: the biggest at-risk group is elderly and it is hitting poor communities hardest, these groups are the ones least able to register online and they depend on phones.   HENCE THE NEED FOR PHONES and HELPERS!

If you can help it would be a great thing to help end this pandemic that much sooner.  

I am sure there will be many questions, but like most BR projects I do not have the answers yet. I can say, it will help get the local vaccine project moving as we will free up others to run and coordinate clinics and the like.  

Tuesdays (all semester) will be our slot.  8:30-3:00.  We can break it up but we will need many people.  I am suggesting 8:30-12:00, 12:00-3:30 time slots for now.  We can change it going forward.     (At the present we will NOT be offering transportation.)

Here is a form to sign up: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdIwGeFgQGPc6YOCnL1bsrlLEFJ9ndnD22MrYa3nhc_2DSZ_w/viewform?usp=sf_link.   Thank you in advance for helping!   We are living through historical times and we all need to pull together!:
