On this week’s show, Jamie Newton interviews Dan Otero, CEO of Hidalgo Medical Services in Silver City, New Mexico. 

Beginning with the current status of the pandemic in Grant County and the surrounding region, the interview moves on to the rollout of vaccines and just how people can request and receive vaccinations, Dan Otero’s response to people who consider the coronavirus a hoax and decline COVID-safe practices and vaccinations, and how health care agencies cooperate through the Grant County Emerging Infectious Diseases Task Force and otherwise to promote education, prevention, diagnosis, testing, treatment, and vaccinations for the coronavirus.
