| BOSTON, Jan. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts (“Blue Cross”) today released a new public health messaging video to support the COVID-19 vaccination effort. The 2-minute video, produced by Blue Cross’ health news service Coverage, features Dr. Katherine Dallow, vice president of clinical programs and strategy at Blue Cross, sharing her perspective as a physician on the promise of the new vaccines. “Public health experts have noted vaccine hesitancy may be a primary risk factor for COVID deaths in the next year,” Dallow said. “Blue Cross is committed to sharing fact-based information about the safety and efficacy of FDA-authorized COVID-19 vaccines to help the public understand their benefit. Getting vaccinated against COVID-19 is one important step we can take to keep each other healthy, support our health care workers, and get Massachusetts businesses back on their feet.” Approximately 95% of Massachusetts residents are currently unvaccinated against the virus, which has infected nearly a half-million and killed nearly 14,000 in the state. Blue Cross is covering the administration of all FDA-authorized COVID-19 vaccines, with no out-of-pocket cost for members. As a public service, Blue Cross is making its PSA video available for republication free of charge for any media, governmental, educational, or public health messaging effort.
