Community clinics cross language and digital divides to distribute vaccine

In addition to mass vaccination sites and pharmacy megachains, coronavirus vaccine is being distributed by community clinics that serve populations where they’ve built strong connections and trust — through language and cultural competency or by serving low-income families. North East Medical Services has multiple clinics in San Francisco and around the Bay Area, serving some 70,000 patients, many of whom are low-income Chinese speakers. Dr. Kenneth Tai, chief health officer, and Jessica Ho, government affairs and community liaison, talk about NEMS' vaccine distribution strategy.
