Arizona s top public health official and community leaders talked with southwest Phoenix residents in an over-the-phone town hall on Wednesday, answering their questions and encouraging them to get vaccinated.
More than 2.7 million Arizonans have received at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, but some communities disproportionately hit by the virus lag in vaccination rates.

Christ said the department was holding intensive community outreach efforts in communities across the state.
