1 – Information on COVID-19 Vaccine Pilot, Saturday, November 21, 12:30PM
2 – First Nations Testing Update
When I sent the other email I noticed I miss the timely notice listed in item 1. I also remembered that I had not sent out the second item and wanted to make sure to share here.
Then there were things sent by text or links via Zoom this week.
I was informed that someone was able to volunteer for the COVID hotline through the NM Medical Reserve Corps. I haven’t looked into it, though if you are interested please visit their website.

There is also a contact tracing training available through John Hopkins School of Public Health. You need to scroll down the page a little bit.

I’ve been asked about online first aid, CPR, and street medicine courses. Here is a link sent to me. If you know of more resources please forward them.

Dear Community Leaders,
New Mexico is one of four states chosen for a COVID-19 vaccine delivery pilot program by Pfizer, one of the drugmakers at the forefront of a race to develop an effective vaccine. Dr. James Hildreth, President/CEO Meharry Medical College, and one of the nation's leading experts in infectious diseases, including the coronovirus, will be delivering a keynote address at the NAACP State Conference on Saturday, November 21, at 12:30 pm, and will be discussing the COVID-19 Vaccine trials. The conference is virtual and there is no cost to attend. Reserve your space now to attend the NAACP 69th Annual Conference.
Best regards,
Pamelya Herndon, Chair
State Health Committee
NAACP State Conference of Branches
2 – First Nations Testing Update
Attached is the updated flyer for First Nations’ weekly Covid19 community testing event. First Nations Community HealthSource will be moving to the Department of Health (DOH) app (https://cvtestreg.nmhealth.org/ ). Everyone needing to be tested will need to sign up with this app. It’s user friendly, quick and accessible. The FNCH website and COVID direct telephone line sign up will no longer be available. Please share as needed. Thanks
