Protecting against a new variant
Statement of Common Council President Cavalier Johnson December 2, 2021
Milwaukee, please get vaccinated. Vaccinate yourself, and if your kids are 5 or older, get them vaccinated too.
I am urging anyone not yet vaccinated to get the shot as soon as possible. We are in a strong position — because of vaccination — to be able to keep our community safe from the Omicron variant.
I have no doubt that our city will keep moving forward toward a full economic recovery, but to get there we must continue to follow the common-sense steps that will keep our families and our community healthy.
Get vaccinated!
