He said the visit to the state is part of the VA and Biden administration s prioritizing rural health care for vets, who nationwide have shown a renewed interest in the department since the outbreak of COVID-19. “We think that the moment we’re in now, where we’re seeing a surge of interest in care at the VA to get vaccinations for COVID…, we think that’s an opportunity for us to ask, to seek, other vets to come back into our system,” McDonough said after the round table talk.
