FARGO, N.D. (AP) While older residents and health care workers have kick-started the COVID-19 vaccine rollout in North Dakota, many health officials worry that turning out younger and healthier adults will be a more difficult chore.
The state has started soft-selling via social media and word of mouth, emphasizing the safety of the vaccine and the importance of a strong turnout in thwarting the virus. Molly Howell, the North Dakota Department of Health immunization program director, said the campaign will be ramped up once more vaccine is available and more people become eligible for shots.
