President and CEO of UCHealth, Elizabeth Concordia, says:
We know that vaccination will also improve health and safety [.] we want to set an example and help bring an end to this pandemic.
After more than a year of fighting the initial strain of COVID-19 and developing a vaccine, the Delta variant has now become the dominant strain in Colorado and around the country. According to the CDC, the Delta variant now accounts for 83% of COVID-19 cases. UCHealth believes the vaccination is essential in protecting employee, patients, and visitors.
As of right now, 85% of UCHealth staff, nearly 26,000 employees, have been vaccinated. To provide a further bonus to getting the vaccine, UCHealth is also providing a $500 bonus to employees who have been fully vaccinated by Aug. 22.
