COLORADO SPRINGS, Colorado (Centura Health): At Centura Health, the largest healthcare system in the region, the safety and well-being of our caregivers and patients is our top priority. As a result of deteriorating weather conditions, Centura, in collaboration with CovidCheck Colorado, has made the decision to reschedule Sunday’s mass vaccination event.
Anyone scheduled to receive their vaccine at Broadmoor World Arena on February 14 will be automatically invited to receive their first dose on February 20 at their initially scheduled time. Participants will receive an email confirmation; no need to call. The event is by invitation only.
Despite the cold, Centura Health and CovidCheck Colorado celebrated the first day of the car clinic on Saturday, vaccinating more than 2,300 people. Our resilient team of health workers and volunteers vaccinated more than 268 people per hour. Those who received the vaccine on Saturday included people over the age of 70, educators, existing Centura patients and people from disadvantaged and neglected communities.
Centura is grateful to COVIDCheck Colorado, El Paso County Public Health and all local agencies and organizations that have collaborated to bring this life-saving event to our communities. We look forward to another successful event on Sunday, February 20th.
