They know who is “homebound, who’s disabled, who can’t get to a facility”. The community knowledge of these officials allows for health officials to “go out and give them vaccinations. We will do the whole family. We will do their caregivers. We will take care of all that on a single trip to that home.”

WED: Congressional Candidates Clash On Financial Disclosures, + More

Congressional Candidates Clash On Financial Disclosures - Associated Press Republican congressional candidate Mark Moores on Tuesday criticized Democratic rival Melanie Stansbury for voting in 2019 for a budget bill in the state Legislature that benefited a one-time client of her consulting practice, in a news release. A spokeswoman for Stansbury called the criticism a baseless political attack and highlighted Moores refusal to file a disclosure about his personal finances as a U.S. House candidate. A spokesman for Moores said that this year s delayed federal tax deadlines have stood in the way of the financial disclosure requirement. Early in-person and absentee voting is well underway ahead of the June 1 special election to fill the 1st Congressional District seat held by Deb Haaland before her confirmation as Secretary of the Interior under President Biden.

• 4 hours ago AZ Health Officials, Navajo Nation Offer Pfizer Vaccine To Children 12-15 Arizona health officials on Thursday began offering doses of Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine to adolescents between 12 and 15 years old. It comes after the Food and Drug Administration, along with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, authorized the vaccine’s use for the younger demographic. An estimated 43.1% of the state’s total population has been partially or fully vaccinated so far. Navajo Nation officials are hoping to vaccinate 5,000 adolescents by the weekend, according to President Jonathan Nez, who says his own 13-year-old son received his first dose of the Pfizer vaccine on Thursday.

Local effort delivers donated supplies to Native American tribes

The coronavirus pandemic ravaged nearly every corner of the globe, but its effects were particularly acute in areas that were already struggling with poverty, health care or food access. Local retired archeologist Sally Crum, who worked on the Navajo Nation reservation for five years, became aware last summer of the harsh impacts the pandemic was having on the Navajo people. A friend of Crumâs told her about members of the Montrose Presbyterian Church taking food and supplies to the Grace Community Church in Chinle, Arizona. There, Pastor Joe Begay and his wife, Gerri Begay, distributed the supplies monthly to the Navajo community.
