If you are not among the more than 70 percent of YKHC employees who have received the COVID-19 vaccine, please consider doing so.
The vaccine protects you and protects your community. Each person who receives the vaccine brings us one step closer to resuming our normal ways of life.
Signing up to get the vaccine or getting your vaccine questions answered is easy!

YKHC would like to see all employees and 100 percent of the eligible population in the YK Delta receive the vaccine. It will take all of us working together to achieve this goal! Thanks so much to everyone involved in giving vaccination in the villages. Here are some photos of them in action:
