OHA release - Respiratory viruses such as COVID-19, flu and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) are more likely to spread when we gather to socialize indoors. Now is a good time to get vaccinated and protect yourself and others from severe illness.  The governors of Oregon, California, Hawaii and Washington formed the West Coast Health Alliance (WCHA) to safeguard scientific expertise and vaccine access for people living in those states. Together, they’ve researched the safety and effectiveness of COVID-19, influenza and RSV vaccines and made recommendations for who should get them.
