A sign in a pasture in St. George calls on Vermonters to stay strong. This week cases climbed. We hear from Vermont Department of Health about that and more in our weekly health update.

State officials are reporting a number of COVID-19 trends in Vermont. Some are good. But others are not. First the good news: Vermont leads the country in the number of people 65 and older who have received one dose of the vaccine. The bad news: The number of COVID-19 cases is increasing in Vermont. In our weekly health update, we talk with Deputy Health Commissioner Tracy Dolan about this and other COVID-19 news.

Our guest is:

  • Tracy Dolan, deputy commissioner for the Vermont Department of Health

Broadcast live on Wednesday, March 31, 2021 at noon; rebroadcast at 7 p.m.
