Governor Mills Marks Anniversary of First COVID-19 Vaccination in Maine
Statement
Issues: Health and Health Care
Governor Janet Mills today marked the one-year anniversary of the first COVID-19 vaccination in Maine by thanking Maine people for helping to make the state one of the most vaccinated places in the country.
"Vaccinations save lives," said Governor Mills. "When vaccines became available against this deadly virus, we prioritized saving lives by vaccinating those at highest risk and then quickly expanding availability. Since then, more than 1 million people from every part of the state have done the right thing by getting vaccinated. Maine can be proud of our nation-leading progress over the past year, but our work is far from done. If you have not gotten vaccinated, please get your shot now. If you are eligible, please get a booster."
