Jury releases results of 18-month review into county vaccination efforts
The 2021-2022 San Luis Obispo
County Grand Jury has released the culmination of an 18-month review of the
method the county employed to handle vaccinating county residents as a means to
combat the COVID-19 virus over the past two years.
The findings of the report
say that SLO County moved quickly to establish vaccination capacity well in
advance of receiving the COVID-19 vaccine and that during the first months when
the vaccine was available, the county’s per capita vaccination rate was one of
the highest among the counties the jury sampled.
“This huge task is a
tribute to all the residents, staff, and medical professionals who stood up,
accepted the challenge, and mobilized to fight a vicious unknown and support
their fellow citizens,” writes the jury, “It is testament to the spirit of the
county to face the unknown, overcome fear and help their neighbor. The people
of the county should share the kudos with the medical professionals in the
fabulous response to the pandemic. We all truly deserve congratulations.”
