Alsobrooks joins Md. campaign to encourage people to get vaccinated

By Maryland Matters
The Maryland Department of Health will begin airing television ads this week in which Prince George’s County Executive Angela D. Alsobrooks (D) calls the COVID-19 vaccines “safe” and an important step toward getting back to “ordinary life.” There are two versions of the ad — one that runs 30 seconds that will air on cable and streaming television in the Washington, D.C., market, including her home county, and a 2-minute version that will be available on the state’s “GoVAX” website.  The state is using GoVAX “ambassadors” — almost all high-profile Marylanders of color — to reduce vaccine hesitancy. Gov. Lawrence J. Hogan (R) kicked off the campaign in late January with Baltimore Mayor Brandon M. Scott (D).  Although Maryland’s opened its first mass-vaccination site at Six Flags America in Largo, Prince George’s ranks last in vaccinations.
