To the editor:

There has been much informational and opinioned-based material in the The Journal lately regarding the COVID-19 vaccine and reasons for and against getting the vaccine.

I would like to steer the readers’ attention to a new video produced by the Brown County Public Health office that includes words of advice from various county and city officials, community members, as well as interviews with doctors and nurses from our fine medical facilities.

It is less than five minutes in length and can be accessed on “You Tube” under the subject line “Brown County MN Vaccine PSA”. (Find “You Tube” on your web-browser at www.youtube.com and then the subject line shown above. Be sure and use the “MN” as part of your search, as there are several Brown Counties in the U.S.A.)

I hope you will learn the facts and be encouraged regarding the safety and efficacy of the vaccine from many medical professionals.
