ANDROSCOGGIN VALLEY — The holiday season is all about spending time with family and loved ones. To make that time safe in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, local health-care providers say the single best step residents can take is to get vaccinated.

“Give the gift of life this holiday season — get vaccinated,” said Coos County Family Health Services CEO Ken Gordon. “Whether it be your first, second or third dose, it is the best way to protect everyone — especially children, elders and those with weakened immune systems.”
